AND KILLED EIGHT PEOPLE. IT HAPPENED YESTERDAY.. AT A BUS STOP NEAR A MIGRANT SHELTER. POLICE SAY THEY HAVE A SUSPECT IN CUSTODY.. BUT HE'S NOT COPPERATING. U-S OFFICIALS ARE BRACING FOR A SURGE OF MIGRANTS THIS WEEK. JOHN LORINC SHARES WHAT THIS COULD MEAN FOR THE COUNTY AS AN EMERGENCY IMMIGRATION RESTRICTION IS SET TO EXPIRE IN DAYS. AS MIGRANTS ARE GATHERING AT THE U-S MEXICAN BORDER, LAWMAKERS FROM BOTH PARTIES ARE SOUNDING THE ALARM. REP. HENRY CUELLAR/D- TEXAS "FIRST OF ALL, ARE WE READY? THE ANSWER IS NO." --BUTTED TO-- GOV. GREG ABBOTT/R- TEXAS "PRESIDENT BIDEN IS SENDING 1500, QUOTE, SOLDIERS TO DO PAPERWORK AND THAT'S NOT GOING TO SECURE THE BORDER." THE RISE IN PEOPLE SEEKING TO GET INTO THE U- S COMES IN ANTICIPATION OF THURSDAY'S EXPIRATION OF "TITLE 42"...THE U-S GOVERNMENT RULE THAT ENABLED BORDER OFFICERS TO EXPEDITIOUSLY EXPEL MIGRANTS DURING THE COVID PANDEMIC. SEN. KYRSTEN SINEMA/I- ARIZONA "THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION HAD TWO YEARS TO PREPARE FOR THIS, AND DID NOT DO SO." THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY HAS REPEATEDLY STRESSED THE SOUTHERN BORDER IS SEALED....AND IS GIVING FAIR WARNING TO THOSE TRYING TO COME ACROSS. ALEJANDRO MAYORKAS/HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY "THE SMUGGLERS WHO EXPLOIT VULNERABLE MIGRANTS ARE SPREADING MISINFORMATION. THEY ARE SPREADING FALSE INFORMATION LIES IN A WAY TO LURE VULNERABLE PEOPLE TO THE SOUTHERN BORDER AND THOSE INDIVIDUALS WILL ONLY BE RETURNED." HOUSE REPUBLICANS ARE SET TO VOTE THURSDAY ON A BORDER SECURITY PACKAGE TO SUCCEED TITLE 42. IT'S CALLED "H-R TWO," AND IT CODIFIES SOME OF THE PROGRAMS FROM THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, INCLUDING THE "REMAIN IN MEXICO" POLICY....WHICH SAYS MIGRANTS HAVE TO STAY IN MEXICO AS THEY GO THROUGH THE ASYLUM PROCESS. IF IT PASSES, IT'S NOT EXPECTED TO GET THROUGH THE DEMOCRATIC-LED SENATE. I'M JOHN LORINC REPORTING. IN HOURS.. LAWYERS PLAN TO RELEASE AUDIO AND DOCUMENTS.. IN A LAWSUIT INVOLVING ALEX MURDAUGH.
