Chertoff says they have ended catch-and-release.
IIRC, they have ended catch-and-release only for OTMs [Other Than Mexicans]. C&R still exists for Mexican illegals.
I have noticed that newsies don’t ask Chertoff or the WH about such nuancing and parsing.
Senator Reid said on the floor of the Senate during the previous amnesty bill attempt that “only 5% of the illegals” are apprehended/detained. Reid said that only 2 months ago.
Other reports have said 4,000-5,000 are still entering illegally every day/night.
TG you may be correct about C&R stats, but citing Reid as a source is not a good habit. He does not know the meaning of truth.
