Gotaways Grow As Warnock Opens Border

Rapid Response

Biden’s border crisis is worse than ever. The number of “gotaways” – illegal immigrants who escape into the U.S. without being apprehended – is getting larger and larger per day.

According to new reporting from Fox News, there were at least 73,000 known gotaways in November alone. That’s a conservative estimate. Take a look at how the crisis has grown:

  • Nearly 1,200 per day – the average number of gotaways from January 21, 2021 through September 30, 2021 (the end of FY 2021).
  • 1,600 per day – the average number of gotaways in FY 2022.
  • Over 2,200 per day – the average number of gotaways since October 1.

The border is not “secure” like the Biden administration falsely claims. It is wide open thanks to Democrats like Raphael Warnock who essentially voted to hand operational control of the southwest border to the cartels.

Will Warnock join Republicans in calling for accountability? In calling for an end to the death and destruction at the border? No. The death and destruction happened because of him and Joe Biden.
