TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): As of tonight, there are over 15,000 so-called unaccompanied minors in U.S. custody waiting to be processed. Not all of them are children or even minors. At least 5,000 of them are teenagers up to at least the age of seventeen. But, there is no real way to know how old they are or even who they are, because that's the nature of illegal immigration. And that's why functional countries use visas. Once again, this is a human tragedy for everyone involved. The migrants making their way through Mexico which hates them and mistreats them. And a tragedy for those of us who live here.
