The new images that surfaced late last week of the horrifying conditions at a Donna, Tex Customs and Border Patrol facility spurred lawmakers and federal law enforcement officials into action. The news came just three days after Sara A. Carter broke the story about the Donna, Tex facility live on Hannity.

A whistleblowers email obtained by Carter revealed the “dangerous” and deplorable conditions at the facility for both the children, civilian workers and the law enforcement officials charged with taking care of the facility.

The images were first tweeted out by Sen.Ted Cruz Friday. It revealed the severe overcrowding and unclean, unsafe conditions. Cruz called it “a humiliation” and “public health crisis.”

“The CBP facility in Donna, Texas is a tragic superspreader event caused by the Biden admin,” Cruz tweeted Friday. “Per CBP, the Donna facility has a 10% positivity rate. Roughly 4000 aliens are cramped together into cages.”

Several GOP senators traveled to Donna, Tex. to see the conditions and to tour the border area. Cruz tweeted out another video of human traffickers yelling at the senator from Mexico as they moved to enter the United States.

A delegation of 18 lawmakers led by Cruz demanded entry into the Donna facility after Carter released a whistleblower email she obtained. The letter called the holding building “extremely unsafe and unhealthy for the detainees, agents, and civilian workforce.”

“The overcrowding is inhumane, especially for the children,” the letter continued. “Pod 3A is designed to hold 80 people and on this day we have 694 unaccompanied children with two agents maintaining custody. That is 867% of the stated capacity of this detention space.”

“The agents cannot possibly provide for the care, health, and safety of aliens in our custody, nor can we reasonably do so for ourselves,” the email reads.

Carter has recently spent time covering the growing migration crisis in Texas and Arizona. She is reporting on the unraveling situation.

“[These children] have been through enough already,” Carter told Hannity Tuesday. “Some of these children are as young as 4, 7 years old. Some of them have traveled all alone, across three countries, to get here to the United States.”

Is the Mexican President blackmailing the U.S.? $20 billion or ‘flow of migrants will continue’

Mexican President Lopez Obrador

Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador doubled down on his attempt to blackmail the United States into paying billions of dollars, or else the “flow of migrants will continue.” A report at Fox News reveals that Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador earlier “demanded a series of actions by the United States in order for him to try to cut off some of the millions of illegal aliens coming from Mexico into the United States across its southern border.”

Then just days ago, he said in an appearance on 60 Minutes that if the U.S. fails to meet his demands, “The flow of migrants will continue.” The report said Obrador, in recent weeks, has demanded that the U.S. give $20 billion a year to Latin American nations, lift sanctions on Venezuela, end the Cuban embargo and give legal status in America to the millions of Mexicans who already have entered illegally.

“Mexico has reportedly taken some state-level action to curb mass migration at President Biden’s request, making crossings drop, however, the number of migrants began to rise again in February, with Border Patrol expecting another surge in the spring,” the report said.

WND reports that the Interviewer Sharyn Alfonsi asked, “Everybody thinks you have the power in this moment to slow down migration. Do you plan to?”

He responded that the “root causes” must be addressed.

“Your critics have said what you’re doing, what you’re asking for to help secure the border, is diplomatic blackmail. What do you say?” Alfonsi asked. He later seemed to contradict himself, confirming that even if those things don’t happen, he will continue to try to help secure the border because the relationship between the nations is important.
