If there is any doubt we have a full-blown crisis at our border, the videos below should convince anyone.
Detention centers at the border are at capacity so illegals are being released with a bus ticket and a court date for a hearing that could be months from now.
Catch and release is in full force in McCallen, Texas:
Local reporter Sydney Hernandez is doing what our national media should be doing. She’s reporting from the border on what’s going on. The truth is frightening.
#UPDATE More people being released at the bus station in McAllen after being let go by CBP due to lack of space. Border Patrol agents from other stations being sent to McAllen to help with the processing of immigrants. My live report is coming up. #immigration #BorderNews #Border pic.twitter.com/b2T2hJqirI

Large groups of illegals are a daily occurrence according to the CBP:
#BORDERNEWS In the last 72 hours, Border Patrol agents encountered three large groups of over 100 people in each, illegally entering the country in the #RGV per @CBPRGV
Fri.= 131 families
Sat.=111 families
Sun.=116 families
These are only numbers for large groups, not small ones. pic.twitter.com/Zay4CnBLdS— Sydney Hernández (@SydneyHdzTV) March 25, 2019
A new caravan is heading our way with over 3,000 mostly Central Americans who are being incentivized to come to our border because they are hearing you can get into America. Sadly, they’re right!
Word gets back that all you need to do is surrender at our border and you are taken to detention where it is overcrowded forcing the release of illegals with a bus ticket to their chosen destination. In other words, our immigration policy is so idiotic that we encourage more illegals to come because they know they’ll get in. Just listen to the local sheriff below:

You will be processed and released, given an opportunity!"Here's a tiny snippet of my interview with Hidalgo Co. Sheriff Eddie Guerra-the full story airs at 5 on @kgbt pic.twitter.com/pOI5hkUWNq

Breitbart News reports:
The Catch and Release process often entails federal immigration officials busing border crossers into nearby border cities and dropping them off with the promise that they will show up for their immigration and asylum hearings, sometimes years later.
The data obtained by Breitbart News reveals those 24,000 individuals were released through these areas in the last two weeks:
- 2,500 border crossers released in San Diego, California
- 4,000 border crossers released in Phoenix, Arizona
- 7,500 border crossers released in El Paso, Texas
- 10,000 border crossers released in San Antonio, Texas

The wall needs to be built ASAP but we desperately need a change in immigration and asylum policy.
President Trump should act now to close the immigration loopholes that are being taken advantage of so thousands and thousands of illegals can be released into our country.
