On Monday the U.S. Customs and Border Control released new figures on how many foreign nationals illegally crossed the U.S./Mexico border in the month of July. It seems that each month the number of illegals pouring across our borders rises because of President Joe Biden's refusal to secure the border. While all three evening news broadcast networks (ABC's World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, & NBC Nightly News) ignored the new border numbers, Fox News's Special Report anchor Bret Baier proved again how he's one of the few remaining television journalists in the United States.
Instead of reporting on the new Biden border crisis numbers, the leftist broadcast networks decided to focus on a South Carolina woman being killed by an alligator, a recall of baby swings and cribs, and a report on Americans cutting back on streaming service subscriptions.

During Fox's Special Report, anchor Bret Baier brought viewers the stats on the rapidly worsening Biden border crisis. "U.S. Customs and Border Patrol has just released its figures for the southern border encounters in July and they're stunning," Baier noted. "Official number just under 200,000 in July. There were 10 hits on the FBI's terrorist screening database bringing the fiscal year total of those hits to 66. That's more than double the last five years combined," Baier added.
Keep in mind that only nineteen terrorists were needed to kill almost three thousand Americans on September 11, 2001. Continuing his breakdown of the numbers from the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, Baier reported that "Fentanyl seizures were up more than 200 percent in July over June." Considering how deadly Fentanyl is and how it has added to our nation's drug overdose epidemic, a 200 percent increase in a month is stunning.
Baier ended his report by remarking how "added all together, experts say all of these numbers are extremely disturbing."
They are disturbing but the three leftist news networks couldn't care less. They will avoid reporting on the crisis at the border for as long as they can because reporting on the crisis only hurts Joe Biden.
This latest instance of bias by omission from the three leftist networks was made possible thanks to the endorsements from Progressive on ABC, Febreze on CBS, and Liberty Mutual on NBC. Their information is linked so you can contact them.
