When President Donald Trump threatened mass deportations at the dawn of his second term, Mexico got ready.

The country set up massive welcoming centers in large cities along the border to help newly-deported Mexicans.
Huge tents that could hold hundreds of people were erected, and volunteers were ready to give them a bite to eat, a place to rest and even gift cards to help them get a bus back to their hometowns.

But the mass deportations never materialized, and the giant tents have remained mostly empty with a handful of sports stopping by for their $100 and moving on.

Mexico is still on standby, but is shifting some of its resources to help Mexican nationals who are still in the U.S.

Plus, signs are popping up in South Texas, warning people of a new restricted military area along the border. Correspondent Sandra Sanchez found one of the new signs and reports that they are not easy to spot. The confusion it’s causing for residents who are used to hiking, boating and fishing in this area.
