See the southern border through the eyes of @ARTEfr

@BorderHawkNews was featured in a documentary by French journalists covering the border crisis

The team joined myself and @efraiinGzz as we documented the crisis in Mexico and revisited prior spots including where Border Patrol lifted the barbed wire fencing to allow hundreds of illegal immigrants to cross

What a pleasure to work with Jean and Thomas

True professionals and masters of their craft

Thank you for coming to our country and showing this situation to the world

EXCLUSIVE: Why Are ‘New Drivers’ Flooding US Roadways?

Have you noticed a proliferation of vehicles bearing “New Driver” or “Student Driver” decals? If so, you’re not alone.

Citizens across the country are discussing this recent phenomenon.

What’s with all these ‘new drivers’ on our roads? Why do so many of them appear to be foreign adults?

Border Hawk's @Wid_Lyman started digging. See what we’ve discovered so far.

BREAKING: Empire State Climbers Face possibility of DEPORTATION After DA Pulls Plea Deal

Empire State Building climber Ivan Kuznetsov "will almost certainly be sent to fight in the war in Ukraine" if he's deported to Russia, his lawyer says.

He and Angela Nikolau accepted a misdemeanor plea from the Manhattan DA, lawyer said. Last night the DA's office pulled it and said it will go after felony charges instead, putting them under threat of deportation, according to attorney. Their lawyer called it "a bait and switch" and said Nikolau may be jailed in Russia for her artistic expression.

"We didn't damage any property at the Empire State Building," Kuznetsov said.
