For years, Americans were assured the southern border was under control. The message from the White House was steady and confident: the situation was “managed,” the system was “secure,” and critics were exaggerating.
Newly released data from the Department of Homeland Security tells a very different story.
According to DHS figures now circulating in Washington policy circles, migration flows during the Biden presidency reached levels so dramatic that they reshaped the populations of multiple Western Hemisphere countries. The numbers are not marginal increases. They are historic demographic shifts.
By DHS calculations, approximately eight percent of Nicaragua’s total population entered the United States during Biden’s four years in office. Seven percent of Cuba’s population. Six percent of Haiti’s. Five percent of Honduras’s.
These are not percentages of visa applicants or border encounters alone. They represent shares of entire national populations.
