Fox News reporter Bill Melugin has been reporting on the illegal immigrant invasion on our southern border for months on end almost single-handedly, as the other networks have all but ignored the humanitarian crisis.
Melugin dispelled media reports that the migrants being bused to blue states are somehow being duped, reporting that he has seen firsthand the forms they sign agreeing to being transported out of the area.
And while the liberal media is now up in arms over 50 migrants being flown into the wealthy enclave of Martha’s Vineyard, at the behest of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is giving blue states a small taste of what many border towns are enduring, Melugin served up a reminder Friday that the onslaught of humanity enticed to our border by the lawless open border policies of the Biden administration continues unabated.
“Good morning from Eagle Pass, TX, where we have groups of several hundred migrants crossing illegally in multiple locations right now, including part of this group which started walking along a local highway. We have seen large groups in 3 locations so far today,” the Fox News reporter tweeted, reporting live from Eagle Pass, Texas.

With an estimated 4.9 million illegal immigrants have crossed into the United States since President Biden took office some 20 months ago, according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, it’s not hard to image that they are coming in large groups, but when seeing these numbers on video storming our border day in and day out, it’s astonishing that the American people are allowing this — the motivation being to artificially alter voter demographics in America, according to many on the right.
As remarkable as the video above is, footage from an infrared drone is mind-boggling, showing a true-to-life invasion that comes with great peril to America:
More video from our brand new @FoxNews night flying drone with thermal imaging from early this morning. Within just 2 hours in Eagle Pass, TX this AM, we saw 3 large groups totaling 500+ crossing illegally in three spots.

NEW: For the very first time this AM while it was still dark, we used our brand new night time drone w/ thermal imaging as a large group of migrants crossed illegally into Eagle Pass. As you’ll see, the group was 100+ in size. Grateful to @FoxNews for getting us this new tool! pic.twitter.com/MrdpCn1vOt

The open border crisis enriches Mexican drug cartels and evokes massive human suffering, including widespread rape of migrants as young as 12 and the deaths of hundreds of migrants making the dangerous journey to America. Record amounts of fentanyl flowing across the border is also resulting in thousands of overdose deaths in the U.S.
The cost to America has never truly been identified, with immigration advocates quick to suggest illegal immigration is a net-plus while conflating federal and state public assistance programs. Common sense says otherwise as many end up on some form of public assistance and the influx of unskilled labor drives down wages while increasing rent prices.
Meanwhile, the mostly-liberal enclave of Martha’s Vineyard already enlisted the assistance of the National Guard — for FIFTY migrants — and sent them on their way.
Martha’s Vineyard already deported the 50 who arrived so they’ve got room again… https://t.co/6JInw0hmxc
