The daily number of migrants apprehended by Border Patrol agents fell by 62 percent during the past week from a peak of 10,605 one week ago. On Monday, agents apprehended only 3,882 migrants who crossed the southwest border with Mexico between ports of entry.
In the two weeks leading up to the end of Title 42, Breitbart Texas reported the daily migrant apprehension rate increased from about 7,400 during the last three days in April to 10,605 on May 10 — one day before the end of Title 42. On the final day of Title 42, that number fell slightly to 9,788, according to a law enforcement source. The numbers continued to fall each day until Sunday when agents apprehended 3,852 migrants. On Monday, the numbers increased slightly to 3,882 migrants — down 62 percent from the peak on May 10.

this is just a lull.
there is another big migrant train coming up from mexico.
If the daily number of migrants apprehended by Border Patrol agents continues to “fall” at this rate the illegal aliens will start heading back to Mexico on their own.

WORD GAMES! They could mean “We stopped trying to apprehend them”.
Uh huh. And crime is down in Chicongo - it must be, they aren’t arresting anyone.
This is the rainy season in Texas. There’s a direct correlation between the decline in illegal alien crossings and the increased number of youth baseball games canceled.
“Playing with words”
That’s my take on it, certainly don’t trust anything this administration says. There has been some flooding so that might be part of it. Don’t have a problem with Breitbart reporting the numbers but they could have a more critical attitude.
Apprehended is a very key word in this article. Better number to track is how many crossed the border????
Take it from this Texan, who lives on the border it’s worse than what you all think. They are lying to you. They are pouring in through designated open gate areas in the border across Texas.
You can ascribe those thoughts and words to yourself as you are the one who is saying that.
“Migrant Apprehensions Drop 62 Percent in One Week Post Title 42”
That’s because they are letting all the illegal aliens in, deeming them here legally, and are refusing to “apprehend” them.
Change the definitions of words and actions and you can make them mean whatever you wish.
This is like making the Covid numbers go down by not getting tested.
Liberals are pure scum. Lying sons-a-bitches.
Yeah, the liars are out in full force this week.
Yeah. Apprehensions dropped because they gave up and resources had to be diverted elsewhere.
