What was said

"I do believe that, Megan. Let's look at the numbers from 1975. 1975, Pew and all the other ones were talking 12 to 15 million. When I came into the Border Patrol 30 years ago, 12 to 15 million. 2015, 12 to 15 million. But the only thing that was not making sense is working on the border, seeing this mass incursion of illegal aliens every single year coming into the United States, we all knew, well, there's no possible way it's 15 million."

Former Border Patrol Commander at Large Gregory Bovino claims approximately 100 million illegal aliens currently reside in the United States, vastly exceeding conventional estimates of 12 to 15 million. Bovino cited evidence including 30-40% drops in Charlotte commuter traffic and school attendance during brief 4-day enforcement operations as proof his figure is accurate. He argued official estimates have remained static for decades despite continuous mass migration at the southern border.
