Mayorkas tells border agents US is ‘going to lose’: leaked audio
NY Post ^ | August 13, 2021 | Emily Crane

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been caught on leaked audio telling border agents that the current crisis is “unsustainable” and that the US is “going to lose.”

Mayorkas told agents during a private meeting in Brownsville, Texas, on Thursday that the current situation “cannot continue” and that the system wasn’t designed to handle such high numbers of illegal immigrants, according to the audio obtained by Fox News.

“A couple of days ago I was down in Mexico, and I said, ‘Look, you know, if, if our borders are the first line of defense, we’re going to lose and this is unsustainable,'” Mayorkas said during the meeting.

“We can’t continue like this, our people in the field can’t continue and our system isn’t built for it.”

They created it. At this point who cares anymore.

It’s obvious the Governors and state legislatures don’t care. If they did they’d deny DHSs ability to drop these people off in their towns/cities/states.

Some liberal judge told Abbott that Texas couldn’t stop the buses. So what? Stop it anyway. And then drop a bus load off at the judges house.

What’s the judge going to do?

Abbott is weak. Its nice to have principles but that and $3.00 will only get you a cup of coffee. Relentless determination is the only thing that really matters. The Dems understand this. Republicans don’t, and never will.

Talk is just talk after all. It means nothing if not backed up by action.

Zactly….

We had a guy in the White House that was all that and a bag of chips. But those you speak of colluded to allow him to be taken out, all for their 40 pieces of silver.

And now that complicity has tuned this country into a train wreck.

The entire southern US border is actually made up of state borders. The “Red State Coalition” should be in the position to defend the borders, forget the Federal Government, as HS, ICE, and the Border Patrol are all corrupted and sabotaged by the Biden cabal. We need Red States to do this, now! Let the illegals rush the California border, taking pressure off Texas and Arizona. New Mexico? Are they as clueless as Newsom and Biden?

Well, that’s comforting. If he can’t do the job, perhaps he should step down.

I really don’t think a weak person becomes governor of Texas. These do-nothing Republicans are playing for the other team: Team China.

Mayorkas’ concerns about losing control at the border and being sympathetic is all a lie. His job is to assure that the human wave attack at the border continues and that Covid 19 positive illegals are distributed far and wide in the US as fast as possible.

Yes states are allowed to form independent armies. It is constitutional.

It takes a “loser” to know about how to lose/losing. Mayorkas is the best at that. Pendaho!

"Homeland Security Secretary"

He is in a position of authority to do something about it.

If the chain of command will not let him, then he can resign in protest.

So he was passing on Joetato’s plan to the agents.

“We’re going to lose. That’s the plan.”
