RALEIGH — Illegal Immigration looks to be one of the hot-button issues in the upcoming midterm election cycle after federal officials reported that for the first time ever the number of illegal immigrants arrested at the U.S.-Mexico border is on pace to exceed 2 million.

According to data compiled by the Federation for American Immigration Reform, 4.9 million illegal immigrants have crossed our border since Biden took office.

Statistics from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) show crimes committed by illegal immigrants also surged under Biden in 2021, including a 1,900% increase in manslaughter and homicide convictions compared to 2020.

But it isn’t just adults entering the country illegally. Some 257,110 minor children have been encountered at the nation’s borders, per data from CPB. In North Carolina, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security intends to settle potentially thousands of those illegal minors in an old school campus near Greensboro over a five-year period.

A recent NPR/IPSOS poll showed the majority of Americans are “buying in” to the idea that unchecked illegal immigration on the nation’s southern border is “an invasion.” The poll revealed that close to “three-quarters (73%) of Americans believe the large number of migrants apprehended at the southern border is a problem, consistent with perceptions in September 2021 (72%).”

In the race for North Carolina’s redrawn 13th Congressional District, Republican Bo Hines, endorsed by former President Donald Trump, is facing Democrat Wiley Nickel, a state Sen. representing Wake County.

The most recent polling data from July through August from Real Clear Politics shows Hines with a five-point lead over Nickel; 44% to 39%...

There are no “woes” for Biden he’s doing this deliberately.

Republicans could win nationwide on the immigration issue.

Recession, Inflation, Immigration, and Biden is all that should be discussed now through election day. Democrats cannot win having started a recession, have the highest inflation in 40 years, letting millions of illegals invade the US, and Biden incompetence destroying America. Makes Carter look like an blazing success.
