Steve Rattner, a former official of the ex-President Barack Obama's administration, admitted that outgoing President Joe Biden's handling of immigration policies was "not Biden's finest moment."
Rattner cited a chart from a New York Times op-ed showing a sharp increase in border crossings after Biden took office, reaching nearly 300,000 a month at its peak.
He acknowledged President-elect Donald Trump's claim of low border crossings during his tenure, noting that crossings were about 74,000 a month when Trump left office.
Rattner attributed the surge in migrant crossings to Biden's policies, including a moratorium on deportations.
He noted an improvement in the situation, with current border crossings running at about 100,000 a month, similar to levels during the Trump administration.
