is at the border reaching a breaking point.

Customs and border protection says it's a serious challenge

to keep pace with the record surge of migrants arriving daily

completely overwhelmed and it's getting worse.

Roughly 27,000 migrants are now in custody at processing facilities with three consecutive days of over 12,000 migrants crossing the border.

Why is that a collapse?

Too many migrants.

This group tells me they have court appointments that are months,

in some cases, over a year away in 2025.

There's a thousand people in that shelter. So they're going to go try to find some more food because the food is scarce in there.
