Illegal immigration under Biden broke all-time record highs.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) falsely claimed in a New York Times interview that was published on Saturday that fewer illegal aliens came into the United States under President Joe Biden than during President-elect Donald Trump’s first term in office.

Pelosi claimed in the interview that culture issues, not policy issues, were a major factor of why Democrats lost in 2024.

“I don’t think we were clear enough by saying fewer people came in under President Biden than came under Donald Trump,” the 84-year-old lawmaker said when the Times noted that Americans overwhelmingly rejected seeing millions of illegal aliens flooding their communities.

Pelosi’s claim that fewer illegal aliens have entered the U.S. under Biden than Trump is false.

Well over 10 million illegal aliens have entered the U.S. under Biden while there were approximately 2.5 million who entered under Trump.

The former House speaker claimed that Democrats who said that the party had abandoned working-class people were “not correct” in their assessments.

“Most of the voters, though, said that they voted on the economy and inflation and immigration,” the Times interviewer said. “These were the main issues. Those aren’t cultural issues. Those are policy issues.”

Pelosi fired back by claiming that immigration was “a cultural issue” because Trump had pointed out that some of the illegal aliens entering the country were “murderers, rapists, thieves and all the rest of that.”

The Times pushed back, noting that there were millions of illegal aliens pouring over America’s borders and that Americans “felt quite strongly that they didn’t want” to see illegal aliens flooding their communities.

Pelosi responded by falsely claiming that the illegal aliens were not criminals, even though they are breaking federal statutes by unlawfully entering the U.S. and many of them have committed crimes in the U.S. or their country of origin.
