"The U.S. Border Patrol arrested at least 91,000 migrants who crossed as part of a family group in August, exceeding the prior one-month record of 84,486 set in May 2019, during the Trump administration. Families were the single largest demographic group crossing the border in August, surpassing single adults for the first time since Biden took office.
Overall, the data show, border apprehensions have risen more than 30 percent for two consecutive months, after falling sharply in May and June as the Biden administration rolled out new restrictions and entry opportunities. The Border Patrol made more than 177,000 arrests along the Mexico border in August, up from 132,652 in July and 99,539 in June."

Yea the fact that a record number of arrests and deportations have occurred under the Biden administration is exactly the kind of thing that the Democratic Party loves to ignore.

But Biden promised to tear down the wall?

Right, but Biden and the Democratic Party are liars who pretend to serve the interests of working-class progressives, yet they ultimately just serve the interests of capital.
