“U.S. troops have made their first [abductions] inside military areas set up on the U.S.-Mexico border as part of the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal [sic] immigration, the U.S. Army said. The unprecedented military areas along 260 miles (418 km) of border in New Mexico and Texas were declared extensions of U.S. Army bases by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, allowing troops to temporarily [abduct] migrants and other civilian trespassers [sic].
