U.S. Reportedly Sends Asylum Seekers to Cameroon in Secret

The United States is now deporting migrants fleeing war or persecution in their home countries to the African nation of Cameroon, often in defiance of U.S. courts.

As the New York Times reports, none of them is from Cameroon but they have been offloaded there in secret. Those detained say they can leave the state-run facility there only if they agree to return to the countries they fled. The process represents a window into President Donald Trump’s campaign to circumvent the asylum process and hasten deportations.
