Texas congressman sounds alarm on deteriorating conditions for migrants: 'Out of an apocalyptic time'

Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas., said Wednesday on "America's Newsroom" he's never seen conditions this bad at Border Patrol processing centers in El Paso. 

Gonzales reacted to the White House pressing the Supreme Court to allow Title 42 to expire despite deteriorating humanitarian conditions.

"I worry that they're only going to increase capacity and then just release more people into El Paso and throughout the country," he told Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino. 

Video footage obtained by Fox News shows a Border Patrol facility in El Paso, Texas, overwhelmed with migrant arrivals.

As Texas is about to face freezing temperatures, Gonzales discussed how the center is at "400% past capacity" and said everyone is sick. 

"There is only one bathroom, everyone's coughing and everyone's sick. A lot of people don't have jackets and outer layers of clothing. And it's about to be freezing there. So the conditions are absolutely horrible. Fast-forward five days and nothing has changed. I got an update last night. There are still over 4,000 migrants in that center." 

Gonzales detailed the conditions in El Paso like it is "outside a Hollywood movie."

"National Guardsmen are putting up razor wire. El Paso's a beautiful city," said Gonzales. 

"You've got razor wire there in the airport, I was told, over 500 migrants are sleeping on the floor. The El Paso school district has provided a couple of buildings that they're not using to house migrants. The convention center is also being used. There's talk of using Fort Bliss, which is the Army base there in El Paso. It's out of an apocalyptic time." 

Gonzales, Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas., Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas., and Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.V., wrote a letter to Biden urging for him to keep Title 42 in place.

"It's below freezing in El Paso. It's not fair to anybody. Not to mention, we've had 14 Customs and Border Patrol agents commit suicide this year. So that is also an issue that agents are breaking down," he said.

Gonzales’ video came a day before the City of El Paso declared a state of emergency as border crossings have overwhelmed law enforcement personnel.

NHL official shoves Leafs' Michael Bunting off the ice after scrum: 'What the f--- are you doing?'

Toronto Maple Leafs winger Michael Bunting was forcefully shoved off the ice by an official during Tuesday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning after a fight broke out at the end of the first period, prompting the Calder Memorial Trophy finalst to ask: "What the f--- are you doing?"

It’s a valid question. 

The incident involving official Dan Kelly came after Tampa Bay’s Pierre-Édouard Bellemare slammed Mitch Marner into the boards just as time expired with the Leafs leading by one.

Several Leafs players jumped to the defense of Marner, including Bunting who was then pulled off by referees and ushered off the ice. 

Kelly then repeatedly shoved Bunting off the ice.

Bunting restrained himself but not without questioning Kelly’s actions.

After the game, Bunting credited the altercation to just heightened emotions. 

"I think emotions just were high, and it's hockey and gotta move on from it. It’s not really that big of a deal."

Bunting scored a goal in the 4-1 victory, also earning his 100th NHL point in the process. 

"I took a little different path to make it to the NHL. I played six years in the [American Hockey League], over 300 games. I’m proud of my path and the way I got here and I just want to keep building off it and keep playing my game." 

Bunting’s time in the AHL interestingly coincided with Kelly’s time as a player for Albany Devils. 

"Yeah I played against him in the minors," Bunting said with a laugh. "No history – I don’t know, I probably have history with everyone. No, I knew he was a former player."
