As the border crisis rages, Sara Carter talked about migrants’ dire situation on the latest episode of the Sara Carter Show. As a result of mixed messaging, thousands of migrants are suffering in camps along the border.
“I don’t know how to explain to you what it’s like to walk through one of those camps. You know, it’s like a refugee camp,” Carter said. “There’s no, there’s no way to explain, explain the mess that is happening right now, on the Rio Grande to see little children. And I’ve talked about this before, it’s like, kids from Guatemala, from Honduras, or El Salvador. And now we have these beautiful little children, these Haitian children that are so poverty stricken. They’re living in these makeshift refugee camps. It’s filthy. They’re in the elements, there’s bugs everywhere.”
As a result of the surge of Haitian refugees, particularly at the Del Rio International Bridge,Texas Governor Greg Abbott held press conference Tuesday to discuss it. A surge of more than 16,000 migrants arrived at this past week alone.
Abbott claimed the current White House caused the chaos. “The Biden Administration’s failure to enforce immigration laws and halt illegal crossings on a federal dam poses life-threatening risks to Texans and the migrants themselves,” Abbott said. “Texans ― and all Americans ― demand and deserve a secure southern border and the protection of our nation’s sovereignty.”
Similarly, Carter also pins the blame on the administration. “You see these kids, and you see their families, and you see the suffering and the way they live,” Carter said. “And you know that this was a situation that was created by Biden, the Biden administration, literally is trafficking humans.”
In August, U.S. Customs and Border Protection encountered 208,887 migrants at the southern border.

Despite chaos at the border, the Biden administration is still pursuing expansion of a smart phone app which would allow nearly 40,000 asylum-seekers to enter the United States…per month.
“Starting in June, officials will allow more migrants waiting in Mexico to secure an appointment to enter the U.S. through a government phone app known as CBP One, which the Biden administration has transformed into the main gateway to the American asylum system” reports CBS News.
Department of Homeland Security Officials said border agents are preparing to distribute approximately 1,250 appointments per day, or 38,750 per month, to migrants in Mexico. They will then present themselves at ports of entry.
CBS News reports:
The CBP One app allows migrants north of Mexico City to request an appointment to appear at a southern border port of entry, where U.S. officials generally release them with an immigration court hearing in their respective destination. Migrants can fight their deportation in court by seeking asylum.
The app-powered system has been sharply criticized by migrant advocates, who say it penalizes the most destitute migrants who don’t have smartphones or an internet connection. They have also said the app does not allocate nearly enough spots to help the tens of thousands of migrants stranded in Mexico.
However, the app has facilitated “the largest expansion of migrant processing at ports of entry along the southern border in U.S. history” adds CBS News. “Since its use began in January, more than 120,000 migrants have secured appointments to enter the U.S. through CBP One, according to unpublished government figures.”
In addition to the CBP One process and the asylum restriction, the Biden Administration has begun allowing up to 30,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela to fly to the U.S. directly per month if they have American sponsors. In just several months, that program received over 1.5 million applications.
