IMO, you should consider only the ICE numbers, not the CBP numbers. The CBP numbers are people being turned away at the border, which is a different category of action than arresting people already living in the US (sometimes for many years).

If you look just at the ICE numbers, the difference is much more stark: a 3.5x increase.

I do think the Web site here could do a better job of clarifying this.
