Based in a Texas close to the border and see it everyday. The amount of people crossing daily is insane, and they know they’ll get a free pass as soon as they cross.
I’ve seen people cross and wait for border patrol to pick them up. They already know the process and know that surrendering to BP will get them in the country faster.
Illegal immigrants have been house at various locations to include motels and facilities run by cities and are then transported by bus, some even by plane, to sanctuary cities or family that is already in the country.
Operation Lonestar is bolstering security at the border, National Guard troops are only allowed to report illegal immigrants to BP.
Stronger border security and better policies would greatly help. As I stated, people crossing illegally already know the process, that’s why they’re crossing at high numbers.

They are detained after being caught, during the process they are given a court date for immigration court. With the amount of illegal immigrants the immigration court is back logged so their court date isn’t anytime in the near future, some might even be in a year or two.
Once they receive their court date they are either released and expected to appear to that court date. They are being bused to sanctuary cities where they are dropped off.
The point is they are released and expected to appear to their court date, which doesn’t happen.
