"It appears the border reports are the tip of the iceberg," said Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, which began patrolling the border last April.
Such requests from Mexico, and U.S. officials acquiescing to them, are not new, say Border Patrol agents.
Scott James, a former Tucson agent, resigned after eight years of service in February, citing a lack of support for agents by the Department of Homeland Security.
He said that U.S. Border Patrol officials provided office space inside their headquarters to Mexican consulate officials, allowed the consulate to dictate the agents' activities, and gave the consulate information on ongoing investigations.
Such courtesies were not extended to consulate offices of other countries, James said.

Pinging La Enchiladita... have you read this follow up article today?

Un freakin' believable. I'm flabbergasted with that paragraph.
This is starting to look pretty bad. I wonder if this Scott James guy has an axe to grind, or is all of this true? If true, this should investigated thoroughly.
