Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said on Sunday that U.S. Border Patrol encounters have dropped by half in the two days since Title 42 expired.
Around 6,300 encounters took place on Friday and 4,200 happened Saturday — a marked decrease from the over 10,000 reported before the end of Title 42, Mayorkas said during an interview on CNN.
Pressed on why the numbers have fallen, Mayorkas credited a “vitally important message” encouraging people arriving at the border to take legal pathways toward entry, which he said has been expanded by President Joe Biden in “an unprecedented way.”
Mayorkas also touted stiffer punishments under Title 8, which can include deportation, a five-year ban on entry, and possible criminal prosecution.

Heh, and the CNN low life dumbass hostess keeps using the world “lie” when she failed at trying to show Trump up. When one wants professional lies, one goes to the media...where lying constitutes 90% of their so-called academic course structure.
Shove it, media. When the tipping point comes, you had better d*mned well hide.
“Probably also have changed the definition of “encounter.””
Exactly right. It depends on what their definition of “encounter” is.
Probably true. When the CBP is ordered not to challenge invaders, the reported encounters will plummet...
It didn’t drop. It is up to record numbers that are multiples of previous records.85,000 in a week.
If you run you'll just die exhausted.
Everyone knows this puke and those who surround him are all liars so why be redundant by calling him / them liars? Call them what they really are, seditious TRAITORS!!
Mayorkas is a communist from Cuba and is in league with Obama and many others who have set out to destroy America. He is among a large bunch who are the worst of the worst.
They just changed their method of counting.
He’s a known liar.
Why would anyone believe a thing he says?
Why should I believe a commiecrat?! Everything they ever tell us is a lie!
Well, if you simply let illegals through the border without intercepting them, there is no “encounter” to log.
Something had been reclassified and isn’t an encounter according to DHS definitions. Leftist change the meaning of words all the time. The American language is meaningless to them.
THanks to weather , the tExas National Guard, and the Court injuctions obtahed by Florida and Texas AGs.
“U.S. Border Patrol encounters have dropped by half in the two days since Title 42 expired”
With liberals you have to parse words carefully. Depends on one’s definition of an “encounter” I suppose. Or they could be just bold-face lying. Or illegals have decided its easier to go in through the front door if they just let you in. Not sure which reflects reality.
Nothing but lies from the rotting, stinking Biden Administration, from the head down.
The federal government is unlawfully and illegally creating rubber-stamped entry into the United States, that bypasses physical and legal barriers - such that, hundreds of thousands of what would be “illegal entries,” are now regarded as U.S. Government Escorted Entries.
Government employees are engaged in human trafficking with intent to circumvent
- U.S. laws
- state laws, and
- illegal entry
by following unlawfull commands and orders.
The states should arrest all such government employees, and then arrest all judges who obstruct the states’ prosecution of the racketeers and syndicates aiding the trafficking.
All the government employees have a duty to NOT OBEY unlawful orders.
He also emphatically insisted that the moon is made of Yellow American cheese and NOT green cheese!
Impeach.
So, Title 42 was the magnet all along?
I don’t sink so, GI.
One day does not a policy make. The border flow will be back heavier than ever by next Wednesday,
