The number of arrests or detentions of migrants at the border this fiscal year remains at a record high, according to data released Monday.

11:35

With more than a month still left in the fiscal year, the number of apprehensions marks a significant increase from 2021. That fiscal year, authorities apprehended migrants 1.66 million times and encountered migrants nearly 2 million times -- in what was then a new record. So far in fiscal year 2022, there have been more than 2.4 million migrant encounters.

The administration has had ongoing negotiations with multiple countries that have their own challenges with receiving migrants, the officials said. Slightly more than 1.04 million Border Patrol apprehensions resulted in a Title 42 expulsion in fiscal year 2021. In May, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas described a six-point plan to address border migration when the department was preparing for the end of the Title 42 order before its rescission was blocked in court.

Meanwhile, Republicans have denounced the White House's approach to the high level of immigration. Some GOP leaders in border states and elsewhere have also used the migrants as part of public stunts to underline their criticism -- buying bus and plane tickets to send the migrants to Democratic states where local officials were caught off guard.

There IS a border crisis. Biden has failed our country!

President Biden's border patrol is killing it. Hey Fox News stop lying to us! 😜

Thanks to the governors who are busing equity north.

ACLU your website says that there is no problem….care to change your misinformation?

Now do border gotaways, which are at 500,000, women being raped, child trafficking, fentanyl and other drugs resulting in highest overdose deaths in American history. The border is in shambles. Do better reporting.

Is this supposed to be good news? These are people’s lives, not points in a video game.

ruthsrevenge1 So they are catching more ppl illegally crossing, good. Border patrol is doing its job. Maybe the headline should read, “Border patrol 2,000,000…Trump Wall 0.”

Improve our border, the economy, food prices and security for your family WITH YOUR VOTE!

More foreign aid to Central & some S. American nations may help turn the tide. But Washington would rather send billions upon billions to the sinkhole situation in Ukraine. And NAFTA may a reviewing if the Mexican government is in cahoots with this large scale human trafficking.

Sure they apprehend but then they let them go. It’s all BS because their isn’t enough space to detain them.

We've been told by the WH PressSec that there is no problem at the border, so this must be fake news. Careful or you will be banned from Twitter. I wonder where all those apprehensions were sent? Surely, the admin isn't into human trafficking by moving them around?

Hey I need one those uniforms

Yet Democrats are crying about a few thousand in their neighborhood

ABC phone ringing off the hook after this tweet. KJP46 gonna be studdering and screaming on the other end about negative cornpop press

So...Biden is protecting our borders? I thought the GOP said they were 'open.' Hmmm... 🤔

government can't expect Texas to keep up this absolutely over the top problem. Every country takes immagrants but they have to come in the right way Texas doesn't have the money, housing, or staff. President Biden doesn't get it he needs to work at the border

So, another phony border crisis perpetuated by republicans and a compliant media

Great job. No open borders indeed.

To bad your government doesn't give a damn about it's citizens.

Bus em' North.

Federal border report does not show this data. They are stopping immigrants at border. Congress decides immigrations rules and the budget. Not Biden - why are you not addressing concerns to congress . Plus tell Biden has sent bills on immigration and gop senate votes them down!

Hello media!!!! CONGRESS sets immigration policies! CONGRESS funds immigration.Biden has sent 200 bills on immigration and gop shuts them down. House Dems has tried to pass immigration bills. GOP senate shut them down. GOP complains-obstruction!! Blame GOP house/ senate!

The USA is being invaded.

Can’t wait to see how MAGAts will turn this into a weapon against Biden.

The migrants sign a legal document in their language stating their destination. NO COERCION! The dems are lying. Its all legal

When the illegals straight up tell you they are running across the border because of Brandon.

No shit.

That’s an invasion close the border

Umm.... I thought...Never mind.

We just hit 2 MILLION!!!! We have no border.

That means the border is MORE secure than it was under orange Hitler and the republiconartists.

Going to be a rude shock when people are forced to flee the Gulf and East coasts of the US (flooding), abandon the entire Southwest (temperature), and evacuate the West coast (fires), all also due to climate change. The people who are blocking now with be begging soon.
