Half where from where i am in mcallen texas. what are you seeing there today, gabe? are folks at all aware that the president is sthieng order to change his policy to a certain extent? >> reporter: oh, hi are there, craig. things move quickly so we moved across the border back into brownsville approximately were in front of a tender age shelter, one of those that the associated press had been reporting on. let me get to what uasked me first. when we were in mexico and speaking to the migrants th...
