Here’s Marlen Reyes and her kids — Meylin + Freddy. They’re one of the families arriving at the border + being allowed to stay. They made it to Brownsville after a 16-day trek from Escuintla, Guatemala. “God doesn’t forsake us.” (📷: Callaghan O’Hare)

Abuela has started to answer telemarketing calls with a simple message: “Patria y vida. No speak English.” *hangs up phone* (note: she fully speaks English.) I can’t with her.

Update: The Senate will vote to confirm Mayorkas as DHS Secretary on Tuesday. No exact time yet. Vote was scheduled for Monday at 5:30pm, but postponed due to DC weather. TBD if this will impact timing of Biden’s Tuesday immigration-related announcements.
