The final US jobs report to land before the pivotal election shows that 12,000 new jobs were added last month, a shocking number when compared to figures from the southern border.

“The US economy added just 12,000* jobs in October, according to data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. If the initial estimate were to hold firm, it would be the weakest monthly job gain since 243,000 jobs were lost in December 2020 when Covid and its variants reared their ugly head,” CNN reported, adding that the “tally is far below September’s revised total of 223,000 jobs added and expectations for a 112,500-job gain.”

But figures from the border show a staggering number of migrants coming into the country to purportedly look for those limited jobs, according to data reported by NewsNation’s Ali Bradley.

President Joe Biden’s border deputies “invited 49,840 more parole migrants to fly or bus into the U.S. for jobs during October. Those legally contested ‘parole migrants’ are welcomed by the Office of Field Operations (OFO) at the ports of entry along the border,” Breitbart reported.

“An additional 56,580 migrants– including many women and children – crossed the border illegally and were registered by the Border Patrol. Some will be deported,” the outlet continued. “Biden’s deputies also welcomed at least 150,000 legal immigrants, foreign temporary workers, and refugees.”

Those advocating for illegal immigration claim the incoming foreign nationals will boost the US economy as consumers, triggering a need for more products and jobs. And while opponents point to the drain on American taxpayers who will foot the bill to house, feed, and cover medical expenses for the law-breaking migrants, reports continue to claim otherwise.

“Economists who study immigrant labor’s impact on the economy say that people who are in the U.S. illegally are not taking native citizens’ jobs, because the roles that these immigrant workers take on are most often positions that native workers are unwilling to fill, such as agriculture and food processing jobs,” PBS reported last month in an article attacking former President Donald Trump for his claims about the effect of illegal immigrants on the nation.

According to the Washington, D.C.-based non-profit Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), the staggering cost of the migrant crisis reached $150 billion in 2023.

“At the federal, state, and local levels, taxpayers shell out approximately $182 billion to cover the costs incurred from the presence of more than 15.5 million illegal aliens, and about 5.4 million citizen children of illegal aliens. That amounts to a cost burden of approximately $8,776 per illegal alien/citizen child. The burden of illegal immigration on U.S. taxpayers is both staggering and crippling, with the gross cost per taxpayer at $1,156 every year,” the report from March 2023 noted.

In a press conference in September, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell admitted that “one of the things that’s allowed the unemployment rate to rise” has been “quite an influx across the borders.”

Reports of letting in more migrants than the number of jobs being created under the Biden-Harris administration were blasted on social media.
