What the evidence supports

False

At least 21 million unauthorized immigrants entered the United States during Biden's presidency.

The figure was roughly double the combined total of recorded encounters and estimated evasions, and encounters include repeat attempts rather than unique people admitted into the country.

Unresolved

The people entering during Biden's presidency came from prisons, mental institutions, street gangs and drug-dealing organizations.

Some entrants had criminal histories, but no evidence supported the sweeping claim that the migration population broadly came from institutions or organized criminal groups.

Misleading

Biden and Harris let roughly 13,000 convicted murderers into the United States.

The cited ICE docket figure accumulated over decades, included some lawful noncitizens, and did not show that those people entered or were released under Biden and Harris.

False

Kamala Harris never visited the border.

Harris visited the U.S.-Mexico border area in El Paso, Texas, in June 2021 while serving as vice president.

False

California's high-speed rail project cost about 40 times more than planned.

The projected cost had risen from roughly $33 billion to more than $100 billion—about three to four times the original estimate, not 40 times.

False

Trump won 92% of the farm vote in the 2024 election.

Trump won a large majority among rural and farming constituencies, but available election surveys did not support a 92% national farm-vote share.
