The figure is likely some hundreds of thousands higher, but the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has refused to reveal the official total.<\/p>\n<p>This year, experts are predicting that Biden will again set a new illegal immigration record with more than 2.1 million border crossers and illegal aliens expected to arrive at the U.S.-Mexico border. Hundreds of thousands of those arrivals are likely to be released into the U.S. interior.<\/p>\n<p>In January alone, Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/18\/joe-bidens-dhs-frees-62500-border-crossers-into-u-s-in-a-single-month\/\">released<\/a> into the U.S. interior\u00a0more than 62,500\u00a0border crossers and illegal aliens \u2014\u00a0a foreign population more than twice the size of Princeton, New Jersey; nearly twice the size of Lexington, Massachusetts; and more than six times the size of Jackson, Wyoming.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>John Binder is a reporter for Breitbart News.
