How Biden Has Misled Americans About The Situation At The Southern Border

President Joe Biden and his administration have misled Americans about the situation at the southern border multiple times since taking office, according to Customs and Border Protection data and various media reports.
Biden refused to call the influx of migrants at the southern border a “crisis” in April. He has called it a seasonal surge that happens “every single solitary year.”
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data suggested otherwise. In March of this year, CBP saw a 400% increase when compared to the same period in 2020.
Record breaking apprehensions continued throughout the spring and summer.
In July, border officials encountered an estimated 210,000 migrants, including 19,000 unaccompanied minors, which challenges historical patterns that show migration generally slows during the summer months.
