These aren’t illegal immigrants. These are people who have legally requested asylum, have then been processed by Border Patrol and released.

BREAKING: Another Border Patrol bus full of illegal immigrants, this one all adult men, just pulled up and mass released them onto San Diego streets. Again, men from all over the world going to blue cities. One man from Mauritania told me he is gay and is here to request asylum.

Hi @DesertReview please remove the story attributed to me using the words “illegals” and “illegal aliens” from your website. I don’t use these terms to describe human beings, per the guidelines outlined in the @AP Stylebook. Also, it’s inaccurate.

Visited my daughter’s grave. I can’t believe this is how I have to spend Christmas with her now every year for as long as I’m on this earth.

A migrant from Jamaica died from hypothermia on Tecate mountain last week on MX side of the border. He was a 24 year old man. He died within an eighth of a mile of jackets and blankets and mittens and water left out by Border Kindness as part of their humanitarian aid mission.

I crossed the border today in less than 14 minutes no sentry and the agent said "There you go. You can go write a little report on that." Oh how I love my borderlands.

Just gonna say that rarely have I met a tougher, more productive or harder working journalist than @LisaHalverstadt & San Diego is better off because we have her asking tough questions & pushing officials for answers. She’s not playing any game here. She’s dedicated to her job.

Out at open air detention camps in Jacumba today that are holding migrants who crossed from Mexico into U.S. this a.m. Originally from Afghanistan, Columbia, China, Turkey, Peru and Brazil; they have no food, water, shelter, electricity for phones. BP told them to stay there.

Just met two Venezuelan migrants at Casa del Migrante en Juarez. One says there’s no way he can wait for the app, he’s been trying for months to get an appointment. He had not heard about the new interim rule restricting access to asylum until I just told him. 1/2

Heard from sources very high in the Mexican federal government yesterday who said that Mexico has not been consulted at all about any U.S. deal that would potentially include a new authority to expel people to Mexico without any humanitarian screenings.
