You knew it all along! Illegal alien population is
twice as high as the oft reported 11 million, by Ann Corcoran, 9/22/18.
The new estimate also bolsters President Donald Trump’s demand that reluctant GOP and hostile Democratic legislators fund a border wall.

The
Leftwing media and talking heads have been using a number of 11 million
illegals in the US for at least a decade, but commonsense told you it was
higher.
In June thousands turned out in
Washington DC in support of those crossing our borders illegally thus
encouraging even more illegal crossings.
Now
some ‘smart people’ at Yale and MIT actually crunched a few numbers and much to
their chagrin (because they went in to the study assuming the number was lower
than 11 million) are reporting it is a whopping 22 million!
(By the way, refugees that we
bring to the US are legal aliens, but the hundreds of thousands coming across
borders as asylum seekers—wannabe refugees—were, we presume, included in the 22 million because they are not
legally here until they have been granted asylum!)
Here is Neil Munro writing at Breitbart: The population of illegal migrants is roughly
22 million, or twice the establishment estimate of 11 million, say three
professors from Yale University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The shocking estimate will force establishment politicians and pro-migration
advocates to recalculate the estimated impact of the huge illegal population on
wages and salaries, on crime rates, welfare consumption, rental and real-estate
prices, productivity rates, and the distribution of job-creating investment
funds to coastal vs. heartland states.
Build the Wall! - The higher illegal
population estimate helps explain why Americans’ wages and salaries have risen
so little amid apparently record-low unemployment rates, and it also undercuts
companies’ loud demands for yet more immigration of foreign workers, consumers,
and renters.
The population estimate also raises the political and economic stakes
of any amnesty legislation. In
2014, public opposition blocked the bipartisan, establishment, media-boosted
Gang of Eight bill, which claimed to offer an amnesty to just 11 million
migrants.
Currently,
advocates for a ‘Dream Act’ amnesty claim it will provide green cards to
roughly 3 million sons and daughters of illegal immigrants.
The
academics expected their techniques to show the population is smaller than the
consensus estimate of 11.3 million. “Our original idea was just to do a sanity
check on the existing number,” said Edward Kaplan, operations research
professor at Yale. “Instead of a number which was smaller, we got a number that
was 50 percent higher. That
caused us to scratch our heads.”
These
are the math geniuses, but isn’t it 100% more if 11 million is now 22
million? (I’m math impaired, so let me know!). Continue reading here. Next we need to figure out how many
are in each state!

The researchers said
that the data indicated that the number of illegals are somewhere between 16
million and 29 million. The higher number could explain Hillary’s extra 30
million votes in California.
