BROWNSVILLE -- Border communities from Tucson, Ariz., to Brownsville on Saturday plan to celebrate the end of Michael Chertoff's term as U.S. homeland security secretary with piñatas, music and a retirement cake.

There's only one catch: Chertoff isn't invited. ....


"This is not a protest disguised as a party - this is a party," said Scott Nicol, of the No Border Wall Coalition. "Chertoff has only been secretary for three years but he has managed to do a tremendous amount of damage. Texas will be glad to see him gone, and it can't come soon enough."

A group in El Paso also plans to host a Chertoff send-off party Saturday that is slated to include games of border-fence limbo. ....
