By The FirstJoe Biden’s border continues to break records —and not the good kind.
According to a leaked Border Patrol report reviewed by Breitbart Texas, more than 220,000 migrants were apprehended in May while illegally trying to enter the country via the U.S. southern border. “Since March 1, agents apprehended more than 633,000 migrants along the southwest border,” Breitbart reports.
The skyrocketing numbers are reaching heights not seen since the Clinton-era.

Official reports from U.S. Customs and Border Protection show the apprehension of 210,749 in March and 201,800 for April. Adding in the unofficial report of more than 220,000 brings the three-month total to more than 633,137. The combined reports also reveal that since the beginning of the fiscal year, October 1, 2021, agents apprehended more than 1.4 million migrants in eight months.
News reports indicate a record migrant caravan of 10,000 to 15,000 left southern Mexico on Monday to head to the U.S., Breitbart Texas reported. A group of approximately 9,500 crossed the border between Guatemala and Mexico with plans to head to the United States, an organizer of the group told Fox News. The group consists mainly of migrants from Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
The Rio Grande Valley Sector remains the busiest of the nine southwest border sectors. These agents apprehended approximately 45,000 migrants. This is followed closely by more than 44,000 apprehended in the Del Rio Sector. The El Paso and Yuma Sectors account for another 67,000 migrants.
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) weighed in on the recent influx of migrant apprehensions at the border, stressing this isn’t a “humanitarian effort” but a “full-scale invasion.”
“The Del Rio Sector Border Patrol agents caught nearly 4,000 migrants over the Memorial Day Weekend. More than 1,600 migrants avoided apprehension and made their way into the United States. Make no mistake, this is not a “humanitarian effort”, it’s a full-scale invasion!”
