Recent reports from various political figures highlight a significant increase in illegal immigration and border security concerns in the United States, attributing the situation to the CCP's infiltration and exploitation by adversaries, including Communist China. According to Customs and Border Protection (CBP), 22,233 Chinese nationals have been encountered at the southern border. Border patrol agents have also encountered over 70 individuals on the FBI’s terrorist watchlist this fiscal year, and 340 individuals on the terrorist watch list have been stopped trying to cross the border. The situation is described as a national security crisis, with over 9 million illegal immigrants reported to have crossed the border since President Biden took office, and nearly two million known ‘Got-Aways’ under his administration. Operation Lone Star is mentioned as a response by Texas to reinforce efforts at the southern border. The increase in Chinese nationals attempting to cross into the U.S. has risen by 6,300% since FY21, and there have been over 7.4 million illegal immigrant encounters, indicating significant exploitation of open border policies by various adversaries.
