The number of immigrants illegally crossing America’s southern border will grow a hundredfold in the future, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott asserted late Wednesday.

“This is just the very beginning of what’s going to be a massive expansion of the number of people coming across the border. It will grow tenfold and a hundredfold, especially because of the way the Biden administration has handled this,” Abbott, a Republican, said during an appearance on Fox News’ “Hannity.”
