Thanks to new filings from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Fox News’ Bill Melugin reported migrant encounters at the southern border hit a record high in April.

“There were 234,088 migrants encountered at the Southern border in April,” Melguin said. “That’s the highest number in DHS history.”

Of that total, 96,908 migrants were expelled via Title 42. The soon-to-end Trump-era policy that allows Border Patrol to turn away migrants at the border because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
