‘Pseudeo-legitimate’ travel agencies in Senegal offering ‘complete packages’ to get migrants to US border
Fox News
Pseudo-legitimate travel agencies in Senegal are offering travel services to migrants hoping to make their way to the U.S. southern border and be released into the interior.
Those agencies offer visa-free travel to Europe, which then allows them to move from there to the Western Hemisphere, where they can travel to the U.S. and either try to get in at a port of entry using the CBP One app – where 1,600 are let in each day – or enter illegally between ports of entry in hope of being released into the U.S. with a court date in the distant future.

"They sell complete packages to connect them to a smuggling organization that will then facilitate their movement up to the border," the official said.
