Chinese illegal border crossings spike by 7,000%. Only China knows why

Chinese illegal border crossings have gone from a trickle to a flood -- a 7,000% increase and that's just for half the year. But our government and media aren't asking China why.

One might think that given the unique threat the Chinese Communist Party poses to the United States, our Department of Homeland Security would intently interrogate some of these migrants to understand why they’re here.  Jeremy Hunt, a West Point graduate, served as a U.S. Army intelligence captain. He’s now a media fellow at Hudson Institute and chairman of Veterans on Duty, a nonprofit organization focused on national security. Follow him on X @thejeremyhunt.

Still, nothing compares to what’s ahead. So far, this year’s numbers have already eclipsed 2023 with 24,296 arrests — and we still have six more months to go in the fiscal year. Chinese migrants are among the fastest-growing groups illegally crossing the southern border. Even more concerning, the overwhelming majority of these Chinese migrants are military-age males.
