Border Patrol agents along the Mexican border apprehended more than 180,000 migrants during August. This is the second straight month of increasing apprehensions of migrants crossing the borders between ports of entry.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials released the August Southwest Land Border Encounters Report late on Friday afternoon. The report confirmed an unofficial report published by Breitbart Texas on September 1 showing the apprehension of more than 179,000 migrants. The apprehension of 181,059 migrants in August represents an increase of more than 36 percent from the July report of 132,648 migrant apprehensions. The July numbers were also up from June when the Biden administration bragged about a brief decline in apprehensions (99,539).
