Jan 20, 2025, 07:07 PM
Moments after President Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20, 2025, authorities shut down the port of entry in El Paso, Texas. The closure occurred around the time of the swearing-in ceremony as he declared a national emergency at the southern border. President Trump reinstated the 'Remain in Mexico' policy and ended the 'catch and release' practice. Law enforcement officers, some in riot gear, have secured the border crossing. The port of entry is temporarily closed, affecting individuals who had been waiting for months to cross.
