super chaotic and busy but it's kind of
always been like

that authorities are not giving much
information about what's going on
regarding the potential Mass
deportations but we can definitely see
here at the border crossing entire
families carrying mattresses and their
belongings there are at least two
families here that have decided to
voluntarily leave or voluntarily Deport

situation
this gentleman over here says that he
sold everything he owned back in
Dominican Republic he's Haitian but he's
been living here for 13 years he sold
his TV and anything valuable of course
he just got little money for it and now
we're crossing into Haiti they're just
going to try to resta Lish their lives
