Consistent Surge of People Crossing Illegally
KRGV ^ | April 28, 2016

BROWNSVILLE – The number of people crossing the border illegally is on the rise. The Border Patrol chief said the number of people coming across is consistent with the surge two years ago.

Chief Patrol Agent and Commander of the South Texas Corridor Manuel Padilla Jr. insisted this time, his agents are better prepared and border security isn’t in jeopardy.

However, some people don’t agree.

More than 80,000 people crossed the border illegally since October. It includes more unaccompanied children and family members from Central America and Mexico.

It’s about the same as during the immigration crisis of 2014.

Is a "constant surge" really a surge, or is it the new normal? This surge as they are calling it, is actually the previous one that never ended.

Sorry “consistent surge” is what they are calling this, though to me it has indeed been constant.

I think it's perfectly clear. Obama is using his time remaining to stuff the pipeline of future Democrat voters as full as possible.

The kids are the product of the “dreamer” deferment executive order. The other ploy is for the illegals to not identify their country of origin. Worst case scenario for them is they get a court date and are cut loose. The Administration has created policies that flaunt the law and encourage illegal immigration. This is the results.

These people should immediately be bused back over the border to Mexico. If they won’t take them, just close the border until they do.

Well thank you! I would say I heard it when my parents listened to it but that would not be the truth.
