Do you have evidence of illegals being forced on the busses?
These people? Not yet, this just happened.
But these people were deceived. Kidnapping by deception is the legal equivalent of using force.

Some people have reported being intimidated, some have said that they were told there would be services, some report being told that it was going to expedite their asylum process.
None of these people have committed a crime. Existence is not illegal. It is not a crime to cross the border. It is not a crime to seek asylum. There's a process, and all of these people are going through it. They have case numbers and wristbands with their info on it. Calling them "illegals" is both dishonest and reveals your own prejudice. If they had been denied asylum in court, then they would be deported.
Illegally immigrating is illegal. It is a crime to cross the border with authorization. Claiming asylum when you get caught does not absolve you of that.
Personally most of the asylum claims are bs from the start. They should be sent to Mexico and they can file there. Immigrants have learned they can claim it and o get in.
Accusations are not evidence.
Entering a country illegally is ... Illegal.
Crossing the border illegally is ... Illegal.
There's no such thing as entering the country illegally or crossing the border illegally. These are inventions of xenophobic politicians trying to make you fear outsiders. It is illegal to circumvent the immigration process, or to fail to follow the application process for asylum. But you can cross the border and then apply for immigration or asylum without committing a crime.
Here's the law about crossing the border. Turns out you can enter the country illegally.
8 U.S. Code § 1325
I’ve already cited him the law. It’s even called illegal entry.
It is a crime to cross the border. Where did you come up with that horse shit?

Did you not even bother to read your own link?
Proper entry includes crossing the border and asking for asylum. There is no crime committed until and unless the person attempts to circumvent the immigration or asylum process. The act of crossing the border by itself is not enough.
Crossing the border is circumventing the process. SMH
Asylum is supposed to be done before you enter the country or at at checkpoint.

Literally anyone from anywhere is legally allowed to cross the border and ask for asylum without breaking any laws. INS checkpoints are for convenience.
No. https://www.texastribune.org/2023/02/21/border-immigration-biden-rule-asylum-deport/
