Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Friday that all migrants camped out under the Del Rio International Bridge in southern Texas have been cleared.

"As of this morning, there are no longer any migrants in the camp underneath the Del Rio International Bridge," the secretary told reporters.

Another 8,000 have chosen to return to Mexico, while an estimated 5,000 migrants are being processed by DHS, which will determine whether they will be deported or placed in an immigration processing center, Mayorkas said. Democrats have pushed back on the use of Title 42 – first implemented under the Trump administration – as it allows federal officials to sidestep usual immigration practices to protect against the spread of COVID-19.

"It is not specific to Haitian nationals or the current situation," he added, in an apparent attempt to counter accusations of racism. Only those who can prove they have an"acute vulnerability" or threat of torture will be permitted to remain in the U.S.

He went on Sept 7 to Brazil & met Bolsonaro.He was briefly detained by police for questioning. Suddenly we have an organized caravan of Haitians from Brazil Where did they all go This Administration placed them all into America cities. This was done without vetting , without Covid tests. Without any medical tests. This is putting every American at risk. This is simply stupid!!!!

Migrants have been cleared from under Del Rio bridge, Mayorkas saysThe thousands of mostly Haitian migrants who had been encamped underneath a bridge in Del Rio, Texas, have been removed and either deported to Haiti or placed in immigration proceedings, DHS Sec. Mayorkas says. Can't believe they let most of them in. There's 20k more in Colombia making their way north now. What are we in for? No Haitian should be allowed into this country. They are like animals. Dominican Republic has a HUGE wall up to keep them out. Since they're criminals why weren't they all deported or jailed?
