11 Million Illegals? Reality: 40-60 Million “GOT AWAYS” Since ’95, Says Ex-Border Patrol Agent

We’ve all heard the number: “There are 11 million illegal aliens in the United States.” Yet this figure isn’t just illusory, says an ex-U.S. Border Patrol agent — it’s laughable.

In fact, even the 22.1 million illegals a 2018 MIT study estimated were squatting in our country may be a low-end number, according to Mark A. Hewitt. After all, with approximately one million apprehensions and two million “GOT AWAYS” yearly, he calculates that there’ve been a whopping 40 to 60 million got aways alone since his time entering the USBP, in 1995.

Writing recently at American Thinker, Hewitt relates that he joined the Border Patrol “back when there were only 5,000 people (Agents and support personnel) in all of the USBP” and that he was “the Director of the Aircraft Maintenance Facility in Del Rio, Texas in the Del Rio Border Patrol Sector.” He was also involved in collecting “daily Air Operations performance data.”
