Man and pregnant wife swim to safety

I’m so thoroughly confused. Are these people American? Why didn’t they flee to an Embassy? Why are they scared? Who goes to Mexico lookin for work? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Thanks a lot former administration. Shit has gotten so bad that Americans leave America and go to Mexico for work. I can see it now, bunch of gringos standin at the Depot de Casa asking people if they need help. Piling up in the back of pickup trucks. That’s super sad. Anyways, where the hell is their family and friends? I’m kinda shocked that they have no help whatsoever, are fearin for their lives while on the American side of the border, and they are American citizens.
