Last week, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a press release announcing Mr Morales-Reyes's arrest over a letter sent to an immigration field officer, including a copy of it.In the letter, the author said he would "shoot your precious president in his [sic] head" at a Trump rally before fleeing back to his native country of Mexico.

Versions of the letter were also sent to the Wisconsin attorney general's office and Milwaukee police chief.Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem posted a picture of Mr Morales-Reyes's face and the letter on social media, writing: "This illegal alien who threatened to assassinate President Trump is behind bars."When White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about Noem's post and whether it would be corrected or removed, she referred questions to Homeland Security.

Noem's post about Mr Morales-Reyes remains on X.Although Mr Morales-Reyes is no longer accused of making the threats, a DHS statement said Mr Morales-Reyes would remain in custody.

"Over the course of the investigation, this individual was determined to be in the country illegally and that he had a criminal record," it said.

Mr Morales-Reyes will face a deportation hearing in Chicago Immigration Court on Wednesday morning, according to his lawyer Cain Oulahan.While both are classified as misdemeanors, the penalties for violating security regulations are much steeper. While entering the country without permission through a location not designated as a port of entry carries a maximum sentence of six months in prison and a fine of up to US$5,000, the second charge increases the possible penalties to up to one year in prison and a fine of US$100,000.

"This is pure wilderness, a desert" Carlos Ibarra, the public defender for several of the detainees, told BBC Mundo. "(The migrants) continue arriving as usual, but suddenly, they face military charges. And they don't understand anything."Some of those additional charges were dismissed, with a New Mexico judge finding that military signs were not clearly marked or could be missed. But many have been convicted and pleaded guilty.

Meanwhile, the militarisation of the border will continue.Trump even recently said that he pressured Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to allow the Army to cross into the neighbouring country to conduct operations against cartels, something the president flatly rejected.
