EXCLUSIVE: Officials Defy Trump’s Promises: 40 Miles of Border Ordered Unpatrolled

U.S. Border Patrol agents are once again sounding the alarm about miles of border being left wide open and unsecured. Breitbart Texas exclusively obtained a document showing a Havre Sector Border Patrol manager knowingly issuing orders to leave 40 miles of border open and unpatrolled. Obama holdovers in the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency are continuing with the same careless disregard in the Trump Administration that they did under former resident Obama, according to Border Patrol agents.

Breitbart Texas has the specific order that was given to the agents signed by the Obama-holdover manager. The order demands that agents on the northern border stay within one assigned zone and are not to leave that zone to patrol other zones that the agents have historically patrolled — even though there are no agents assigned to patrol the other zones.. .. A total of 60 linear miles are covered by the one Border Patrol station in question, yet agents say that this only allows them to patrol 20 of the 60 miles of border.

...

motives for the manager leaving such a vast swath of border unpatrolled, the agents felt that it was twofold; they blamed previous Obama-era policies and they also believed that widespread corruption exists within the Havre Sector’s upper-management.

...

“Criminal cartels exploit our weaknesses on a daily basis and they’re certainly going to exploit such a large area of open and unpatrolled border.”

...

“This order has to be coming from the Sector Chief and Deputy Chief Patrol Agents. They, along with the Station’s Patrol Agent in Charge and Deputy Patrol Agent in Charge, need to be immediately reassigned until a full and thorough investigation can be done into this order.”

How much cartel money is finding its way into his pockets? Audit their personal finances (all suspected of misbehavior) and assets; are they living beyond their means? Do they have hidden ownership in stuff they can't afford on a civil servant's pay?

Task Sessions with the remedy.....

Shameful of Breitbart. Entire article is intended to inflame and strongly implies this is a serious problem. Repeatedly mentions drugs, cartels, etc. and should have highlighted fact this is a Canadian crossing area. Very deceitful, and becoming more frequent.

[epluribus_2]

Maybe the attorney general should recuse himself in cracking down on this treason on the grounds he is a patriotic American.

[central_va]

It’s an international border so regular Army troops can patrol it.

[Stayfree]

WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL TRUMP TO FIRE THE BASTARD!

[MulberryDraw]

Thanks! I missed that it was on the Canadian/US border.

#NEVER ELECTRONIC BORDER WALL

These Treasonous Democrats are why the Wall is tall concrete NOT electrical/electronic.

Future Democrats will just flip the switch to off on the first day of office. The lie will be it is renovations for 4 years.

[TheNext]

Sounds like opening the northern border so Mexicans can reclaim Canada.

[Tucker39]

Not if the President is getting the mushroom treatment, he can’t.

[LouAvul]

POTUS will get around to it. These traitors think they have free reign but their time is coming.

[itsahoot]

If they have such sympathies to violate the president on securing our border they don’t belong in this country.

I doubt if the perp is named John Smith.

[billyboy15]

If that is the case he will soon be aware of it. This story couldn’t be easier to check out.

[CedarDave]

A story from Tuesday, but not the southwest Mexican border but northern Montana border with Canada. Pinged for local interest.

Canadian border end around ......damn.

In Texas DPS is thick as flys on a cow patty collecting illegals..... I have no qualms as its good use of available resources. Fire any and all BHO appointees regardless. During the last 23 years I go down there to hunt coyotes . When we encountered the water caches (55 gallon drums, filled with 2 liter H2o bottles or 1 gal H2o jugs) we destroyed them or took them with the land owners blessings.... DPS would respond when we called em every time . The last 8 BHO BS years the USBP and Texas DPS seemed “slower” .......

Now they are quick to collect in depth.

What I would like to see in my state of Texas an adopted by all border states , modified with they’re own LEO’s of course .....

Sugar Ant Theory ..... stop employment to illegals. Take sugar off the table, no ants
Border Wall .....physical / psychological barrier
US Border Patrol / ICE ..... FLEA effort
TEXAS DPS / Local PD and Sheriff Department.....LEO effort
DOD ..... overwatch using Drone’s and TARS (tethered aerostat radar system) 24/7

A good, simple, legitimate/legal solution.
…and can you imagine how the MSM would howl? :D
