Agents at One Part of Northern Border Apprehended 19,222 From 97 Countries Since Oct. 1

Let’s not forget the northern border!

The Swanton Sector covers the northern border of Vermont and part of New York.

Since October 1, 2023, border patrol agents in the sector have apprehended 19,222 illegal aliens from 97 countries.

That’s more than the last 17 fiscal years combined.

As Bell Melugin noted, President Joe “Biden’s executive order restricting asylum for most illegal crossings does not apply to the northern border.”

Last month, New York farmer Chris Oliver lashed out at Border Czar Kamala Harris due to the constant crossings of illegal aliens on his property:

She probably wouldn’t think it’s much of a deal. Same as the southern border, she didn’t think it was much of a big deal. The amount of people we have crossing, they’ve caught 13,000 in the last six months. That’s what the board of trial have apprehended. If that’s all they can catch, all of them, I feel if they’ve caught 50%, that’s probably a good reading. Wow. It’s hard to say how many people I actually have come across.

A recent report revealed Indians make up the most illegal aliens at the northern border:

Most of the migrants crossing through Canada are Indian nationals. In June, unauthorized crossings of Indians here hit an all-time high, with about 3,600 attempting to cross between ports of entry.“For some of the Indian families (the motivation) has definitely been economic opportunity, reunification with family,” Bose says.He says part of the reason so many Indians come to the U.S. through Canada first is because of the northern neighbor’s favorable immigration policies. For instance, until recently, migrants in Canada who were on a visitor’s visa could apply for a temporary work permit there.Canada also has an express entry policy for skilled migrants who want to live there.
