Ken Cuccinelli cites 22 million illegal immigrants, nearly twice previous tally
Washington Examiner ^ | 16 October 2019 | Paul Bedard

President Trump’s top immigration spokesman on Wednesday said that there are potentially 22 million illegal immigrants inside the United States, nearly twice the estimate regularly cited.

Ken Cuccinelli, the acting director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which handles the legal immigration process, said the number comes from a study done by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. That study put the number at 22.1 million.

The number typically cited is 11 million to 13 million illegal immigrants in the country. The latest estimate, from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, is 14 million. An accurate count is difficult to calculate.

I told all of you this YEARS ago. I told you 25 million YEARS ago. The number now is more like 30 million. It actually is, if not more. Stupid, dishonest government.

I think he is still low, 33 million is probably closer to reality.

Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama did this to us on purpose.

Oh, and she threatened him. “Praying for him and his family....” That is a veiled threat if I ever heard one. That woman is inciting violence. Imagine a Republican leader saying that about her and her family.

Our country is demographically dead and a hodge podge of divisive un-assimilating parasites living like they would in their home third world sh*tholes.

I think most of us are on the same page. I'd guess somewhere in the 40-50M range. This invasion has been going on for decades, with over a million a year (particularly ramping up the past few years). Easily over 40M.
It is a safe bet that Trump won the popular vote of legal American citizens, but given the lack of control of the integrity of our election process - this is unprovable. Just a gut feel. This is inexcusable. The Republicans had control of both Houses, for a time, to fix the problem - but they chose not to. I'd conclude that the Republicans (on a whole) are content with having votes stolen by Democrats.

The Republicans are controlled by corporations that want cheap labor. Murdoch is on the board of an open borders group. Going back to Reagan we’ve made the mistake leaving us with open borders.

First-generation Hispanics work but by 2 or 3 generations in - being told they are victims and hanging out with blacks - they’re on welfare and in jail in similar numbers as blacks.

No social security, no income tax, cash by the billions shipped out of the United States to other countries to prop up their economies at the expense of our own.

Then they get welfare, free housing, free hospitals, and use public schools burdening the stupid Americans with billions of dollars for this ‘cheap labor’ which costs us dearly.

No one has ever been able to explain to me how it could be 12 million years ago with a million or more coming in every year but stay at 12 million. They weren't leaving, becoming citizens, dying in the streets or building cocoons to become giant monarch butterflies at a million per year. But still, somehow, the number never increased.

Talk about an obvious stinking lie! If these government types announce any number on a bad situation of their making, they are compelled to lie by a factor of at least two (2)...

Even 44-million is barely within one standard deviation of the mean of all the guesses...

The actual number, which includes all the many family members allowed in for each illegal, would probably be closer to the 50-million vermin range...

If the illegal births since entry are factored in, this number of vermin could be another couple-of-million understated...

30 to 40 now, but at least the curtain is coming off.

Perhaps by 2030 we’ll be old the truth. (doubt it)

Everyone knew the government was lying to us again. I’d say 25 million squatters are in the country, each planning to bring their extended family too.

And there can be no doubt that 10-15 million of these vermin will vote in 2020...

We were hearing that stupid 11 million since 2006.

With an average of over a million a year due to Bush and bammy how long did the progs expect us to keep on nodding to 11 mill?

I am thinking 35,000,000.

One out of ten persons in the US is a criminal illegal alien border law violators.

One in ten...

I think it is 50 to 100 million. Everywhere you go, you hear Spanish.

And they and their kids are taking American legal residents jobs. Many states are giving them breaks on tuition. And at Christmas the lines of cars to cross the border are unbelievable.

It is unjust. The past administrations did this.
