How to read this: these charts count stories published by BorderTrend's tracked sources, so they reflect reporting and coverage volume, not the number of actual incidents or seizures. A spike can mean a real surge, a big enforcement announcement, or simply more outlets covering one event. History builds up over time as BorderTrend keeps collecting; early days may look thin. Categories are assigned automatically from headline and source and can occasionally misclassify a story.
