Before President-elect Donald Trump retakes control of the White House, human smugglers are advising workers to euthanize and give them to cross the border quickly. Pirates are telling migrants from across Latin America that the time has come to cross the U.S. southern border, according to a statement from the Wall Street Journal.
Officers on the southern border’s U.S. side of the border said they are anticipating a potential last-minute migrant surge before opening day.
As the term of President Biden draws to an end, San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond, who represents a district near the California-Mexico borders, told the DCNF,” I am greatly concerned about the potential for a surge at our southern frontier.”
Many people who want to enter the United States illegally are likely to consider doing so now that the Trump administration has indicated that it will promote stricter immigration enforcement, according to the report.
” Right then, we are now seeing 800 to 1, 000 people entering our place everyday, creating a huge burden on our tools, services, and areas”, Desmond continued. The influx “is overburdening local infrastructure and putting the occupants ‘ well-being at risk.”
A criminal informed migrants close to the Darien Gap, a great forest area spread across the Panama and Colombia frontier, that he anticipates more deportations under the Trump presidency, according to a WhatsApp party message reviewed by the WSJ.
According to Luis Villagrán, a Hispanic immigrant advocate who assists with caravans in Tapachula,” there were four Facebook groups where hundreds of migrants coordinated their departure on U.S. election day.”
” As soon as Trump’s win became apparent, messages spreading anxiety began to appear”, Villagrán said.
In a statement to the DCNF, a Customs and Border Protection ( CBP ) spokesperson said the agency is remaining vigilant to ever-changing migration patterns, and urged migrants to” not believe the lies” of smugglers.
