Trump “100 percent” ready to close US-Mexico border

President Donald Trump says he is fully prepared to close down the US-Mexico border.

He warned congress and central American governments to take action to stem the flow of migrants into the country.

Home security secretary, Kirstjen Nielsen has appealed to the congress to give border officials the power to forcibly repatriate central American illegal immigrants, including children who arrived alone, back to their countries.

Officials announced that facilities for handling the migrants who, for the moment cannot be sent back after they cross the border and request asylum are over taxed.
