17 migrants rescued from a locked trailer near the Texan city of Laredo

SEATTLE - U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents rescued 17 migrants from a locked tractor-trailer. The rescue happened at night, near the city of Encinal, in South Texas, about 40 miles north of Laredo. Photos taken by authorities show the migrants, including children, sitting inside the empty metal trailer and on the side of the road. Encinal police cooperated with Border Patrol agents in the operation.

The 17 migrants rescued by agents were all taken into custody and processed, according to a tweet from the Border Patrol's Laredo Sector.

The arrest comes as Homeland Security Investigations launched a new operation this past week to warn migrants and their families not to rely on human smugglers to get across the south Texas border during triple-digit heat.

These stories ALWAYS end the same way:
"The 17 migrants rescued by agents were all taken into custody and processed"

They won.
They're HERE.

The correct "processing" would have been to take them BACK TO the border, and put them on the other side.

When will we start doing that?
Until we are willing to do so, there is no hope or chance of remaining a sovereign nation...
