Fake. Anyone who actually knows the process knows that there are almost zero illegals. Immigration violations are civil infractions. Like parking tickets, or not mowing your lawn.

    "A first-time illegal entry is a federal misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $250 and a maximum jail sentence of six months."

    Overstaying a visa, which accounts for more immigration violations than illegal border crossings, is a civil offense.

    It’s incorrect to say that there’s almost no crime involved, but it’s definitely not all or most people who commit immigration violations.
