TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): They tell us there are 11 million foreign nationals living in the United States, when we know for a fact that the real number is closer to three times that -- yet they keep lying. 11 million.
Sources familiar with internal Customs and Border Protection data have confirmed to Fox News that officers so far have encountered 171,000 illegal immigrants in the month of March alone. In one month. That's a 418 percent increase from March of last year, but that does not represent the total of people who crossed over. Those are the ones who were caught. Those are just the ones that we know about.
The real number is higher, much higher. How high is it? It's high enough to change this country forever in every conceivable way. It's high enough to devalue your political power as a voter. It's high enough to subvert democracy itself. It's high enough to make this country a different place.
Again, we don't know the number. Why is that? We have absolutely the right to know. We should demand to know now.
