US Coast Guard intercepts dozens of migrants, ships them back
Story by Jorge Fitz-Gibbon • 11h

Coast Guard cutters intercepted dozens of migrants on the high seas as they tried to reach US soil — and shipped them to the Dominican Republic or turned them over to US Border Patrol, officials said.

The migrants were cut off in three separate operations over the past week off the waters of Puerto Rico and repatriated them over the past few days, the agency said in a press release Tuesday.
 
“The daily work accomplished by our watchstanders and responding Coast Guard and partner agency units is instrumental to stopping unlawful migration voyages at sea and removing migrants from a very dangerous environment,” Coast Guard Commander Matthew Roman said in a statement.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'll bet those turned over to our government are already living in 5-star hotels now. :whistle:
