He breaks down this ironic phenomenon today on the CBN News Daily Rundown.
"This visit was a lot more emotional for me," says CBN News Correspondent Heather Sells.
Heather has reported from the US border with Mexico many times, but this time she spent with border patrol agents was different.
"I was with them when they were apprehending families. I saw several families that as soon as they got over the border and border patrol took them into custody there were just tears streaming down their faces – one dad in particular and it was very moving and the border patrol agents were saying ‘You’re safe, you’re safe’,” she recalls.
"And in my mind, and I’m thinking the family’s minds, they’re thinking 'yes, thank God I’m safe right now. I just made it past all that danger and violence in my home country and in Mexico,' but of course, they don’t know their future… and there’s a very good chance they’ll be sent back to Mexico.”

Getting the news on TV is a team sport and every day at CBN News our videographers from Washington to Jerusalem work through difficult, even dangerous situations to capture amazing images for our viewers. One of those folks is Mario Gonzalez who is a videographer and editor in CBN's Washington Bureau.
"I grew up stuttering at a real young age. I just had a really hard time expressing myself, talking to people and art and photography became my outlet of expression."
Gonzalez says he realized early on that he had a gift for photography, "I've given my talents to God. I've asked Him to put me at the right place at the right time so my gifting can be a blessing to those around me," he says.
And through his work covering the news, he says "It's become easier and easier to see people through the eyes of God, the lens of God."
