President Biden<\/a> said he does not believe the border is secure, adding that has been his stance for the past 10 years as he has continued to ask for money.<\/p>\n

House republicans are continuing with their push to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas<\/a>, a move Biden said he does not understand, even though he admits the border is not secure.<\/p>\n

Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich asked Biden if he thought it was unconstitutional that House Republicans were trying to impeach Mayorkas, to which the president responded with a confused look.<\/p>\n

Henrich also asked Biden if he believed the border was secure<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is the highest total for a single month ever recorded and also the first time migrant encounters have exceeded 300,000.<\/p>\n
