As it is right now, we are having a very hard time at the border, Garza explained in recognition of the massive numbers of Central American migrant families being apprehended by Border Patrol agents after illegally crossing the border from Mexico.
Faulkner reacted to Garzas comment about the condition of the border. You said, Weve lost control of the border,' Faulkner challenged. That is different from what reporting Ive seen. What do you mean when you say youve lost control?'
Our Border Patrol chief has mentioned that over 50 percent of our agents are not securing the border and theyre now actually processing, transporting, and carrying for some of these asylum seekers, Garza explained. But I would challenge that percentage. I would put that percentage somewhere in the range of 75 percent.
What were seeing is that were not securing the border, he emphasized. Were not out there catching those drug seekers or those drug smugglers or human smugglers.:
Garza cited an example from his own Laredo Sector where agents assigned to an interior checkpoint discovered a tractor-trailer smuggling 120 migrants from five different countries. Were getting overrun at the border, Agent Garza explained. So yeah, weve lost control of the border, Harris.

The feds job is stop invasion AT THE BORDER (U.S. Constitution, Art IV, Sec. 4). It is GOVERNMENT FAILURE not to do so. Private Americans and enterprise should not suffer the iron boot of unconstitutional government coercion because GOVERNMENT screws up.
Given that illegal immigration and immigration is invasion, given that the constitution MANDATES the feds PREVENT invasion, and given that Trump is Commander in Chief of our military, Trump has every legal ground to launch a full-scale military operation at the border to STOP INVASION.
Be a shame if illegals started disappearing, never to be seen or heard from again.
Back in March Trump said he’d close the southern border. He has already declared a national emergency so why not shut it down? Seems like the Mexican cartels control it now.
Our local paper has a big story today on how drug arrests are overwhelming our jail. Same paper that wants open borders and opposes the wall. These idiots never listen to themselves.
Mexican Cartels Control it Now,,,
Always Have.
Plata or Plomo?
Trump is loading up some awesome tweets about the issue. Should solve things nicely.
Really need to dig into and expose the cash streams, to their ultimate sources, for ALL congresscritters.
Demand it 10x harder than they demand Trumps tax returns.

Plomo. For them.
Millions of gimmiegrants brought in by the drug cartels ready to vote Democrat.
It's all kabuki theater carried on while the hogs gorge themselves at the public trough.
Our country doesn't deserve to be invaded. Dems want us in chaos so we will say "I give up. Bring me Socialism."
They made an example of that one guy and called his group "vigilantes" and denounced him. What if more follow soon?
If angry people finally feel so betrayed that they give up on President Trump, then who would step in to stop the outright violence against the invaders to save our homes and businesses? Wild West without a sheriff like the old days in the 1880s. Romney and Weld can't do it.
The headlines "using planes to fly illegals to Florida" did not help. Now the FL plan was shut down but what about the other displacements due to border chaos? What city will welcome alien bums and their lifetime illiterate welfare mothers and hungry children, and gang members? None.
We must hold off on the violence as long as we can. It's what the Dem/commies are hoping for.
It's jorge busho all over again and we've been royally screwed.
Yes, they do. They want all drugs legalized. No more criminals in jail because of narcotics. Easy, no?
Trump’s fault, he should have militarized and closed the border months ago. Let them take it to court and scream all they wanted, the law and precedent is in his side ...but no. Now we are permanently screwed.
America as founded and as we know it is over. No matter what optimistic, Pollyanna spin conservatives try and put on it.
Why won't Trump put 20,00 fully armed military on the border I will never understand. He is just waiting for what? Soon the problem will never be solved and no longer an America but another Venezuela.
All we have to do is keep voting for Bush League Republicans and they’ll fix it with amnesty...../s
Yes.
The invasion (and destruction) of Rome by the barbarians repeats itself.
The point beyond which nothing can realistically be done has been passed.
The real question now is how long before the blood runs in the streets.
