Musgraves' Deportation Charity Plea Ignites MAGA Backlash

A family of mariachi performers from Mexico entered the United States through the now-defunct CBP One appointment system and sought asylum after fleeing violence, the family told KSAT.

Asked about that family's detention, a DHS spokesman told KSAT: "The law requires illegal aliens who show up at a port of entry without valid entry to be detained while all their claims are heard. You can look it up in the statute." DHS said the family entered illegally and had been released into the country by the Biden administration.

Resale platform Depop announced 20 pieces from Musgraves' wardrobe, including clothing from music videos and tours, would be sold in capsule drops. Women's Wear Daily reported all proceeds would go to the Young Center.

Musgraves invited three brothers, ages 18, 14 and 12, to open three Texas shows after their family was released from ICE custody, KSAT reported.

Federal sources told Fox News Digital that ICE agents made about 51,000 immigration arrests during the month, topping the previous record of roughly 43,000 in June.

Musgraves launched her North American arena tour in Chicago, with Midland as the opening act, and made the donation appeal from the stage.

Trump supporters attacked the singer across social media, several calling for a boycott.
