In other words, she is an anchor baby.
Release them back in Mexico sure no problem
Test the kids again on July 16th. When you find that they are COVID 19 positive, you will have to quarantine them for at least 2 to 6 weeks.
At least that is what our lord and masters tell us common folk what to do.
Release them to their Home Country , that’s nice , LOL
Sounds good to me. Drive the lmao across the border and release them to the Mexican police.
makes no sense. Kids are dying from this virus.
I have no problems with releasing them, as long as it is on the other side of the border.
