The Importance of Border Security

Homeland Security created a database of activists, journalists and social media influencers tied to the migrant caravan. When they crossed the border, individuals in that database were often subjected to hours-long screenings; flags placed on their passports. Homeland Security Investigation Special Agent Turn Whistle Blow Wesley Petternack helped NBC to document that. The target lists also include organizers from groups like Border Angels and Pueblos in Fronteras.
