According to Newsweek, over 200 asylum seekers were dropped off at a bus station in El Paso, Texas on Sunday night. Many of them were without money, food, and most did not speak English, making them incapable of communicating with those who worked at the bus station.

Newsweek reported that dropping immigrants off at bus stations is routine, but the number is so large because of the government shutdown over funding for Donald Trump’s border wall project. In addition to being dropped off abruptly with no money and food, the asylum seekers were fitted with ankle monitors and given court dates.
