I asked CBP for an update last night. Still haven't received anything.
Still waiting.
Here's CBP's statement which would cover Border Patrol facilities and holding areas at ports of entry. Now checking with ICE.
And there's what ICE has to say about power outages at their Texas detention centers.

Today L.A. cancelled 12.5K vaccination appointments due to weather-caused shipment delays.

In my new @peacockTV series "Street Level U.S.A." we look at how, despite locking down early and hard, L.A. became a COVID hotspot.

Streams tonight 10PM ET on The Choice, only on Peacock.
We've been reporting for months on how inequality is fueling Los Angeles' extreme COVID crisis.

Tonight on @peacockTV we'll talk to California Surgeon General @DrBurkeHarris, @SenAlexPadilla, @RobertGarcia and more about how. Street Level U.S.A. with Ja...
I joined @morningmika and @WillieGeist on @Morning_Joe to preview the show and our visit to Long Beach, where despite vaccine challenges elsewhere in L.A., @RobertGarcia is prioritizing teachers and other essential workers. His constituents are thrilled.

President Biden will sign immigration-related executive orders, including one he promised during the campaign to create a family separation reunification task force, at 5PM ET Tuesday in the Oval Office with VP Harris present, according to the White House.
A senior administration official said the task force will be responsible for "identifying all minor children that were separated from their parents or legal guardians at the U.S.-Mexico border due to Trump's 'zero tolerance' policy." nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
I asked whether those separated before “zero tolerance” would be eligible for reunification. SAO said task force would consider families separated under pilot, evaluating on "individual basis” for “preference of the family” and “well-being of children." nbcnews.com/politics/immig…

NEW: Biden family separation task force will cover all families separated at the border under Trump, not just those separated during "zero tolerance,” according to three sources familiar with planning discussions. With @JuliaEAinsley and @GeoffRBennett. nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1…
During his presidential campaign, Biden ran ads promising to establish a task force to reunite separated migrant families "on his first day as president." The announcement had been expected this week but will likely be delayed. nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1…
When the task force is announced, it is expected to be an inter-agency effort across DHS, HHS and State, led by Biden's pick to run DHS, @AliMayorkas, according to three sources familiar with the planning. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…

This Fauci interview by @tonydokoupil could be my beloved skinny tie's finest hour. (Tony has it on semi-permanent loan.)
Come to think of it, there should be an app for news people who want to do clothing swaps. I am like Doug of Nickelodeon fame, wearing the same thing over and over. In this case, I just left my tie on their stroller one day.
I, of course, would request a pair of the Kornacki khakis.

Deterrence and punishment is how the American immigration enforcement system was designed to work, as @AliciaMenendez and I discussed Saturday night. Rolling back Trump’s policies alone will not stop that.
This excellent @nytopinion piece from @jeanguerre makes that clear, and asks a critical question about what President Biden can and should do for families whose lives were upended before Trump separations put immigration enforcement in a massive spotlight. nytimes.com/2021/01/23/opi…
Another must-read: @FelipeDLH argues that President Biden's proposed "virtual" border controls should receive as much scrutiny, if not more, than Trump's "big, beautiful" steel bollards. thenation.com/article/politi…
