The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's interest in using public health concerns as a pretext to close the U.S.-Mexico border and expel migrants. Trump has reportedly been exploring the idea of citing a disease outbreak to justify these actions, aiming to leverage health regulations to enforce stricter immigration policies. This approach echoes his previous administration's use of Title 42, a public health order that allowed for the rapid expulsion of migrants at the border under the guise of preventing the spread of COVID-19.
