I think we passed 30 million sometime during the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
I think ALL 30 million are right here in CA.
“11 million” has been a bogus number for a long time. Just natural reproduction of “anchor babies”, which are STILL illegal aliens, regardless of their supposed political protection, plus some very poor record keeping or even semi-accurate estimates, just cannot keep up with the reality.
Add to the stream from Mexico, so many other nationalities that have filtered in through Mexico, and the inordinate number of visa overstays, some from parts of the world distinctly UNFRIENDLY to the US, and you have a large fifth-column invasion.
Only since January 2017 has there been much pushback on this flood of unknown and largely unwanted skulkers wandering in the shadows. We don’t have a handle on it even yet, but have been able to grapple only with small parts of it so far.
This would help to account for why 20% of the US prison population are illegals.
