I would hope so since he's let in 10 times the number of illegals into the country that came in during Trump's administration.

“Since May of last year, we have removed or returned more individuals than in any year since 2015.”

"Over the last three years we’ve removed, returned, or expelled more people than in all four years of the prior administration," Mayorkas continued. "You know, the facts matter. And the rhetoric, we should brush aside."

Facts matter to PolitiFact, so we fact-checked Mayorkas’ comments. We found that his cautious wording — focusing on specific metrics — accurately reflected the available data. But someone hearing his claim might conclude that he meant all sorts of deportation efforts. And it’s not true, looking more widely, that the past nine months of data exceeded any single year since 2015. Fiscal year 2022, during the Biden administration, would have been the highest, because it included a public health policy that allowed quick expulsions of migrants.

From fiscal years 2015 to 2024, "returns" and "removals" were the lowest in 2020 to 2022, because most people encountered at the border were turned away under a different enforcement strategy — expelled under Title 42. In 2020 — removals, returns and Title 42 expulsions added up to 608,000, and increased to 1.4 million in 2022.

Biden deporting more illegals than Trump. Does that really surprise anyone? I mean seriously?
90% of everything Trump has said or done was embellishments.

If you need to parse semantics and qualify what your words mean, you're likely lying.
