The Biden administration is pressuring its top border official to resign -- but he says they'll have to fire him

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : But, in part due to Title 42 compelling many asylum-seekers to illegally cross the border to present their claims -- and with those detained under the policy often immediately expelled, not formally deported, better enabling repeat attempts -- CBP last month reported a record number of apprehensions.
43% : According to Magnus, Mayorkas asked for his resignation after the CBP commissioner decided against providing a "retention" bonus to the head of Border Patrol, citing philosophical differences.
31% : Despite enforcing strict border measures, including Title 42, a Trump-era public health order that bars most migrants from exercising their legal right to request asylum at a port of entry, Republicans have assailed the Biden administration for not doing more to prevent unauthorized crossings.
