By \u200bupholding ethical standards\u200d and restoring \u2064public trust, the administration aims to create a more transparent\u2063 and\u2062 effective border enforcement system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Biden administration ousted Acting Deputy Chief Joel Martinez, a 31-year Border Patrol veteran, for alleged misconduct.
