Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas unloaded on immigrant-rights activists Thursday, rejecting their suggestions that he has embraced Trump-style get-tough policies and saying he’s managing as best he can with a chaotic border, adversarial court rulings and a “dismantled” legal immigration system.

“We will encounter 8,000 people a day. We’re resourced for a fraction of that,” he said. “What do we do?”, a professor at the UCLA School of Law who was interviewing Mr. Mayorkas at a Fordham Law Review conference on immigration. But Mr. Mayorkas’s words seemed intended for a broader audience of critics on the left who have accused him, and the president, of abandoning their more lenient policies.
Analysts doubted the new budget can make a dent in the record numbers of people who’ve jumped the border over the last year, saying that’s more an issue of policy changes than resources. The secretary also said he’s opened many new options to protect people already here from deportation, and to channel the illegal flow across the border into potentially legal methods of entry.
He declined to elaborate on reports that his administration is considering reviving detention facilities for families — something he oversaw when he was deputy secretary in the Obama administration, and that was continued by the Trump administration, but which he phased out in 2021.
