Thank you for continuing to bring humanity and clarity to an inhumane regime . Donald Trump could fire Stephen miller today if he wanted to . He doesn’t want to .

Olivia, Thank you so much for doing this! This is deeply touching my heart. Please share that there are a lot of us who care about them and hate what is being done in our name and will continue to resist. Love to all. Maria

Thank you Olivia. Are there two separate groups. One on the American side and one on the Mexico side?

There are. Both sides are doing the mass…it used to be that they would meet in the middle but this year due to it being a militarized zone under the Trump Admin it’s not allowed, so here we are..solidarity in spirit.

Dear Olivia,

Thanks for travelling to the mass and sharing your place of El Paso and Jaurez.

I couldn't be there without you and I am grateful that you are there, being part of our Mexican and American heritage, honoring migrants and immigrants.

Kindest, Robert Crook

Olivia, I didn’t know you were still in town! I would have invited you to a celebration we went to last night. Right there where you are reporting!! We were at the former La Hacienda! A good friend is restoring it, working with groups all year who come to learn more about border communities. It’s called Abara House. Where you are is where the old Ft. Bliss was built!
