As dawn broke in Eagle Pass, Texas, a large group of over 100 migrants scrambled to cross the border. This was just hours after former President Trump had won the 2024 elections with his promise to secure the borders as well as crackdown on illegal immigration.
After wading in the Rio Grande River, dozens of illegal border-crossers — mainly Central and South American migrants — along with two other Africans — arrived in the US.
Border Patrol sources claim that migrants are trying to rush in before Trump becomes president and implements tougher immigration policies.
The border agents also wrapped two siblings who were toddlers in a blanket made of mylar to keep them warm.
The current restrictions on asylum applications, implemented by the Biden-Harris Administration earlier this year, do not apply to children who arrive alone at the border.
The term “released” means that they are likely to be released once they have been transferred to the Health and Human Services Department.
The group was immediately intercepted and transported to a bus by border agents for further processing.
Trump promised during his campaign to deport millions of illegal aliens and secure the southern border.
In his victory speech, delivered early on Wednesday morning, Trump promised to “fix” the US border and “seal it up”, while still allowing immigration.
“We will have to seal those borders, and let people into our country.” “We want people to return, we will let them back in, but they have to do it legally,” Trump said.
A new caravan of about 3,000 migrants is forming in Mexico, just south of the border. The caravan left the southern Mexico city of Tapachula on Tuesday, with many men, women and kids in tow.
A source stated that “if Trump wins, people will try to arrive before he is in office.” It’s a last f-k to America.
Another source said: “We knew it was coming because they wanted to get in before the ‘orange evil man’ won.”
According to federal data, more than 10 million migrant encounters were recorded during the Biden-Harris Administration.
According to federal data, the highest number of illegal crossings occurred between October 2021 – September 2022. More than 2.2 million migrants crossed during this time.
