    “The southern border will be directly in the path of totality today when the moon covers the sun for nearly four minutes.” The eclipse, co-anchor Bill Hemmer then added, represents “a real opportunity for smugglers and cartels and migrants to come right in.”

      Imagine if there was a ten hour period every day when you could “smuggle”. The world would be a horrible place. Wait the world is a horrible place but not because of that.
