EXCLUSIVE: How the migrant crisis is sparking an American civil war: TODD BENSMAN’s dispatch from a militarized Texas farm - where Biden’s federal agents are sabotaging the state’s desperate border enforcement

UK Daily Mail ^ | 07/13/2023 | Todd Bensman

Few places along our 2,000-mile southern border with Mexico more perfectly illustrate America’s utterly dysfunctional immigration policy than a remote, private pecan farm in Eagle Pass, Texas.

At this sprawling ranch - owned by Hugo and Magaly Urbina – on the banks of the Rio Grande, President Joe Biden’s federal Border Patrol agents are locked in a bizarre daily struggle with Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s Department of Public Safety (DPS).

Under a simple white tent on the farm, U.S. Border Patrol agents are processing illegal migrants and then transporting them by bus to a nearby brick-and-mortar facility.

From there they will likely be released into the U.S. interior to await judicial hearings on their asylum claims. For some, the process may take up to six years.

Just outside the property’s fence, however - between the river and the farm - Texas DPS authorities stand guard and bristle with frustration.

Why?

‘It seems that [U.S. Border Patrol is] letting [migrants] in and we’re doing our part in order to keep them out,’ DPS Highway Patrol Sgt. Rene Cordova explains to me.

Sgt. Cordova shows me fortifications they’ve built to stop migrants from crossing onto the Urbina’s farm, but Border Patrol tore down a section of the chain link fence.

It also wasn’t helpful to Texas that the Urbinas – who leased a long stretch of their riverfront to the Border Patrol at expense to the U.S. taxpayer - dug a walkway ramp down to the river to make the steep bank more accessible.

This is nothing short of an absurd civil war of sorts pitting two American forces, one controlled by Texas and the other by Washington D.C., against each other.

And it all but guarantees that neither fully succeeds nor fails.

If you want to hear an amazing story watch this CBN interview of Tim Ballard, so many amazing miracles, God definitely called him and his wife to this powerful ministries. Actually it was his wife that was hearing from God and gave him the courage to risk his career and comfortable retirement and take on this journey of faith one step at a time that has helped thousands of children. Certainly God can take down the Hollywood and government strongholds of this horror, through the willing.
