Claimant: Donald Trump (R)
Claim: Joe Biden allowed 25 million people into the United States.
Rating: BLATANT LIE
Explanation: U.S. Customs and Border Protection recorded approximately 10.8 million arrests for illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border during Biden’s presidency. Arrest totals are not the same as the number of people admitted and include repeat attempts by the same individuals, making the 25 million figure highly inflated.
