New numbers out from the Department of Homeland Security show that 22,000 minors – 25 percent of whom were unaccompanied - “illegally crossed the border” in December.

Breitbart reports DHS Spokeswoman Katie Waldman said in a written statement that record numbers of people are “putting themselves and minors in harm’s way” to illegally cross our border.

Waldman said, “The lack of a physical barrier coupled with major loopholes from badly written laws and a terrible ruling from the Ninth Circuit act a magnet for family units and unaccompanied alien children.”

She then called on Congress to act to fund the border wall – which Democrats have refused to do.
