Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas revealed on Friday that nearly 30,000 Haitian migrants have been encountered on the US-Mexico border as they try to enter the country.

Additionally he noted that the camp under the International Bridge in Del Rio, Texas, which serves the length of the border, has been emptied.

'Nearly 30,000 migrants have been encountered at Del Rio since September 9 with the highest number one time reaching approximately 15,000,' he said at the daily White House press briefing....

....Meanwhile the BBC reported nearly 19,000 mostly Haitian migrants are heading towards the US. They are in Colombia waiting to cross the border to Panama, Colombian officials say.

But, Mayorkas noted, 'today, we have no migrants remaining in the camp.'

He revealed that 2,000 have been expelled on 17 flights, 8,000 have returned to Haiti voluntarily, 12,4000 are having their cases heard and 5,000 being processed

That leaves 2,600 missing. ...

I didnt put the extra zeros in 12,4000, just sayin' :)

I wish I could find the article, but somewhere it was written that of the released, some lined up around the ICE building in San Antonio Fri morning to get their checkin and permission to work papers. (enticement of papers worked). OTOH, an article over at Wash Examiner said that it was more than the one bus that was hijacked. What hasn't been told is that Several busses have been hijacked on the way to regional processing centers, and, on the way to the airport; in one case (I'm assuming a back window) a window was kicked out and 22 ran off.

For many, many moons democRATS in and out of government have just made up numbers. From the homeless, to immigration, and ‘peak oil’ the RATS could care less about anything truthful. The Drive-By Media will not just ‘not check’ the veracity, they will repeat the lies and made-up numbers ad infinitum.

8000 have NOT BEEN DEPORTED!!! Maybe 1,000...MAYBE, and ALL THE OTHERS ARE NOW ON OUR WELFARE ROLLS!
