PolitiFact hammers Nancy Pelosi for lying about illegal immigration under Biden and Trump | Blaze Media

PolitiFact hammers Nancy Pelosi for lying about illegal immigration under Biden and Trump | Blaze Media

The article went on to cite specific statistics that showed illegal entries into the U.S. skyrocketed under Biden as compared to Trump.

Under Biden, Border Patrol agents encountered migrants trying to enter the U.S.7.2 million times; under Trump, officials encountered migrants 1.8 million times. Encounters don’t mean people were let in, and there’s no data for how many people who were encountered are now living in the U.S. But the numbers of people released to await court hearings don’t corroborate Pelosi’s statement, either. There were about 313,000 under Trump compared with 3.6 million under Biden.
"We rate Pelosi’s statement False," PolitiFact concluded.
