Irregular crossings at US-Mexico border at four-year low

Al Jazeera’s Heidi Zhou-Castro reports from the US-Mexico border, and she says there’s really not much action, and she is standing right on the border in McAllen, Texas. She adds, this is the scene of the supposed ‘national emergency’ that Trump mentioned he will be declaring today. The only thing is that the number of unauthorised border crossings has dropped to a four-year low as of this month, with fewer than 50,000 Border Patrol encounters with people trying to cross without authorisation.
