We'll take them.

So we can deport them or they can deport themselves to a variety of places, including Venezuela.

But if not, there's a lot of other places in Latin America that we can send people or that they can go on their own.

I think we're doing pretty well.

Look, there's stuff that I wish, extra things that I wish the administration would do, but we are doing pretty well.

I mean, that was our research that showed that the total immigrant population has dropped by 2.2 million from January through July.

We estimate 1.6 million of them were illegals.

And of course it's October now, so the number's even larger.

And we actually have a report coming out next week looking at that number from other angles, and it looks like it's real.

A lot of people poo-pooed it and said, no, no, this is just surveys.

What do they know?

But it's a real number.

The number of immigrants in general and illegals in particular is going down.

And that's not hard to believe because there's always churn.

Even under Biden, some illegals left.

The point is fewer are coming in because the borders shut down.

There's still people coming in on visas and not leaving.

But the number of new illegals is lower and more people are leaving, obviously.

And so this is a real thing.

The administration's got to keep it up because it can't just be talk and rhetoric and scare people and then not back it up.
