"President Trumpโ€™s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released about 9,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the interior of the United States over the last eight days, federal data confirms.

Catch and release totals obtained by Breitbart News confirm that between May 6 through May 13, roughly 9,000 border crossers and illegal aliens were released into a variety of American communities by DHS. This indicates that at least 1,100 border crossers and illegal aliens have been released into the country every day in the past week.

 

The Catch and release process often entails federal immigration officials busing border crossers into nearby border cities and dropping them off with the hope that they show up for their immigration and asylum hearings. The overwhelming majority of border crossers and illegal aliens are never deported from the country once they are released into the U.S.

 

Today, there are anywhere between 11 to 22 million illegal aliens living across the country โ€” the majority of which are concentrated in states like California, New York, Florida, Texas, and Illinois.

 

Over the last eight days, the 9,000 border crossers and illegal aliens released into the U.S. were mostly dropped off in El Paso, Texas โ€” a community that absorbed 5,000 nationals in the last week, alone.

 

Additionally, 1,900 of the nationals were dropped off in San Antonio, Texas, as well as 1,600 released in Phoenix, Arizona, and 500 released in San Diego, California.

 

Since December 21, 2018, the Trump administration has released 177,600 border crossers and illegal aliens into the interior of the U.S. โ€” the majority have been dropped off in San Antonio, where 69,200 have been released, and El Paso, where 61,500 have been released.

 

Former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has exclusively detailed at Breitbart News three executive actions the Trump administration and DHS officials could take to immediately end catch and release โ€” including creating additional detention space where immigration court hearings can be quickly heard. Kobach has also warned that wage hikes for Americaโ€™s blue-collar and working class will not continue if illegal immigration levels keep soaring."

"Maybe Cruz has been watching too much SciFi lately, but while arguing in favor of funding President Trump's "space force", the Texas senator suggested that without a space force to protect American commerce, commercial and military space ships might be targeted by 'space pirates'.

 

"Since the ancient Greeks first put to sea, nations have recognized the necessity of naval forces and maintaining a superior capability to protect waterborne travel and commerce from bad actors," Cruz said. "Pirates threaten the open seas, and the same is possible in space. In this same way, I believe we too must now recognize the necessity of a Space Force to defend the nation and to protect space commerce and civil space exploration."

 

The clip went viral on Twitter, where users alternated between ridiculing Cruz and delicately hinting that he might have a point (even when those suggestions were couched in humor)."
