Podcast host Joe Weiss said that there are two main groups of migrants coming into our country: illegal migrants and asylum seekers.
“There is the illegals,” Weiss told host Jansons on the Lake Forest podcast. “But then there's what's called Asylum Seekers.”
“That's what's happening with a lot of people from Venezuela,” Weiss said. “They are coming here, the law allows you to come to the United States border and say ‘I am seeking Asylum’.”
