An 8 1/2-month pregnant Mexican woman and her family went to an El Paso-Ciudad Juárez bridge Saturday to make an asylum claim. @CBP officer Loya said, “We’re full.” Then Sen. @RonWyden stepped forward and intervened.

Exactly! So why has NO OTHER TEAM kept recording when they are at the border? I look forward to all the photos and videos from your trip.

All of this has to be dragged out into the sun. If the CBP dissolves into smoke, that's because they're evil. None of this should be hidden from taxpayers/the world. They can only abuse in the dark.

Since when does a Senator have the authority to decide who can cross the border. Has he done anything like this for his own people?
