AP report citing US officials' info about illegal crossings doesn't match up with Kamala Harris' claim that the 'border is secure'

Not long ago Vice President Kamala Harris desperately clung to the Biden administration’s “border is secure” narrative and even Chuck Todd couldn’t believe what he was hearing:

Even @ChuckTodd befuddled. To VP Kamala Harris: “We’re going to have two million people cross this border for the first ever. You’re confident this border is secure?” #MTP pic.twitter.com/b6Dcloj7dp

Ah, OK, whatever you say Kamala!

Or perhaps we shouldn’t just take the VP’s claim at face value, because it likely doesn’t align with reality, which tells a different story:

SAN DIEGO (AP) — US officials say that border crossings soared in August among Venezuelans, Cubans, Nicaraguans.

Can those “US officials” go and have a chat with VP Harris? Also the off season is beginning on Martha’s Vineyard so there could be many vacant mansions with plenty of living space.
