the Border crisis MH so you went and saw the migration you saw the groups of people that are making their way up through yeah I was uh invited actually my son and I my son Zach and I went to Panama Panama where I have some history uh I did my bat work on Barrow Colorado Island in uh gatun Lake the Panama Canal so Panama's a place I I'm familiar with but Michael Yan invited us down to go look at the migration in the Darian province of Panama which is the province bordering Colombia um as you probably know there's a gap in the Pan-American Highway about 60 miles that were never built um in this highway that otherwise stretches from prudo Bay Alaska to the southern tip of South America and what's there is a uh tremendously significant and very difficult jungle in the Darian Gap so there's a national park there and ordinarily people do not cross the Darian Gap it is a famously difficult obstacle and what we see there is that the International Community is encouraging a massive migration of people from South America into Central America and that almost all of those people are ending up crossing our Southern border and entering the US the ones who are questioned are claiming political Asylum which is uh uh not accurate
