Front Page Magazine: Biden Oversaw the Greatest Invasion in American History
The U.S. has experienced its largest immigration surge in history, with net migration averaging 2.4 million annually from 2021 to 2023, surpassing previous peaks. Total net migration during the Biden administration is projected to exceed eight million, marking a significant demographic shift.
The share of the U.S. population born abroad has reached 15.2% in 2023, the highest since 1890. This trend raises concerns about the long-term impact on the nation's demographics, particularly among younger age groups, as the country faces a low native birth rate.
