After reports of record-breaking migrant border apprehensions last month,, Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler said Thursday the Biden White House could no longer say the surge was seasonal.
"Well, I guess the Biden White House line that this is the usual annual migration surge at the border is no longer operative," Kessler tweeted.

Nearly 750 unaccompanied minors crossed the border Wednesday, meaning there are now more than 20,000 children being sheltered by the Department of Homeland Security.
Kessler's own newspaper tried to back Biden up with an analysis piece last month that initially claimed there was "no migrant surge" and ignored the record number of unaccompanied minors at the border.
Among Biden's changes have been to create a carve-out specifically for minors in its Title 42 authority to expel migrants at the border.
