bighairymike: So there you have it, Refugees are not illegals. These are the same weasel words the Biden Admin uses to claim illegal immigration has been slowed to a trickle. When your policy is to treat 99% of the new arrivals as refugees, take their name, give them a court date in ten years and send them on their way, sometimes with government paid plane ticket, then you have magically solved the "illegal problem".

You're conflating "asylum seeker" with "refugee". Asylum seekers are not refugees and are not treated as refugees.

In 2017, 53,716 refugees were admitted into the United States.

In 2018, 22,560 refugees were admitted into the United States.

In 2019, 30,000 refugees were admitted into the United States.

In 2020, 11,814 refugees were admitted into the United States.

In 2021, 11,411 refugees were admitted into the United States.

In 2022, 25,465 refugees were admitted into the United States.
