More than 300,000 immigrants attempted to enter the United States unlawfully or were paroled in during August, surpassing all national records and spelling a catastrophe for the Biden administration that claimed its sweeping policy reforms were working.

In August, 304,162 people were apprehended by Border Patrol crossing the border illegally, were deemed inadmissible by customs officers at ports of entry, or used new Biden initiatives to bypass the border and fly under the umbrella of temporary parole, according to data published by U.S. Customs and Border Protection on Friday.

The August number surpassed the record of 302,412 in December 2022.

The 304,162 is between five and 10 times higher than the average monthly totals seen during the Obama and Trump administrations.
