temporary camp in Del Rio has grown with staggering speed in recent days during a massive surge in migration that has overwhelmed the authorities.

DEL RIO, Texas — Thousands of migrants were crowded under a bridge outside the border community of Del Rio on Thursday, part of a massive surge in migration across the Rio Grande this week that has overwhelmed the authorities and caused significant delays in processing the arrivals.

The U.S. Border Patrol said that more than 9,000 migrants, mostly from Haiti, were being held in a temporary staging area under the Del Rio International Bridge as agents worked as quickly as they could to process them.

Once they get used to living in their own sh*t, send them to blue cities.

A surge in migration across the Rio Grande -- and most of them were from Haiti?

Got that?

“Send them back home.”

Or, if that’s not possible, directly to New York City. No doubt James Eileen and Edgar would welcome them with open arms.

They should be there in the first place. Biden needs to tell them to go home and quit paying to support these people on our dime.

According to the representative of CIS on Bannon’s warroom today, who is there, most of these migrants are from Haiti originally but have not lived in Haiti for 3 to 7 years. They have been living in countries in South America such as a Chile and Brazil. Very few of them have come direct from Haiti but they will claim that they have so that they can get asylum from the conditions in Haiti currently. It is all a big scam to destroy our country. Biden and the Democrats are pure evil.

If anyone has a link, please post!

I tried to find one—couldn’t, but I did find this:

Federal judge blocks Biden administration from expelling migrant families via Title 42

A federal judge on Thursday blocked the Biden administration from expelling migrant families at the border using Trump-era Title 42 public health protections, which both Trump and Biden administrations had used to prevent the introduction of COVID-19 into the U.S.
