Bus Driver Tells Passengers Only U.S. Citizens Can Ride As Border Patrol Agent Looks On

So I'm not entirely sure what the situation is. If the CPB was checking citizenship before people got on, or I thought the CPB planned on boarding that bus after it was full and then checking everyone's citizenship, I would also warn people in a vague way like the bus driver did.

The response by Blunt makes me think CPB was checking ID, or planned on checking ID, and the driver ended up warning people it might happen.

"We don’t want to ask our employees ― our drivers, our ticket agents ― to be interfering with a federal officer who is lawfully doing his job,” Blunt added.

The driver wasn't interfering with anything, unless the CPB was checking citizenship of all the passengers. It would have been super sketchy for someone to leave the line after the driver gives the warning, but leaving the line might have given people a better chance to avoid the CPB checking their ID.
