In 2021, U.S. Border Patrol agents made 1.9 million arrests, a record high, according to new data. The data were revealed in just released court filings related to a lawsuit filed by the attorneys general of Missouri and Texas. Around 20% of the migrants arrested, approximately 402,000, were released into the U.S. while awaiting hearings, which is down from the 56% released during a surge in illegal crossings under the Trump administration just before the pandemic began. More than one million were sent back to Mexico or their home countries under Title 42. The Biden administration has used Title 42, a public health law, in order to limit the number of migrants released into the U.S. Former President Trump had used the same law to reject migrants before they could even claim asylum.

0:41.1 | good morning good afternoon and good evening, and welcome to the Tangle podcast, a place where you get views from across the political spectrum, some independent thinking without all that hysterical nonsense you find everywhere else. |
1:06.0 | I am your host, Isaac Saul, and on today's episode, we are going to be discussing Biden's problem at the southern |
1:12.8 | border. Pretty interesting, big, complex issue. Try to make it a little bit simple today and kind of narrow |
1:19.2 | the focus. There's a lot to talk about on immigration. But before we jump in, I have two points |
1:24.8 | of order. First, I have a correction from Thursday's newsletter on the Ottawa |
1:31.0 | protests. On Thursday, I said that the members of the trucker protest, the so-called |
1:36.1 | Freedom Convoy in Canada, were blocking the Ambassador Bridge between Ottawa and Detroit. |
1:42.6 | The Ambassador Bridge is between Detroit, Michigan, and Windsor, |
1:46.0 | Ontario, not Ottawa. This is kind of like the Canadian version of saying Niagara Falls is a North |
1:52.1 | Dakota. So I hope you'll take me on my word for it, that it's kind of easy to mix up Ontario and |
1:57.3 | Ottawa when you're writing and reading about Ottawa all day for days on end like I was. |
2:02.3 | I blame Magdalena. |

2:06.4 | So it's her fault. |
