U.S. officials admit losing ‘operational control’ of border, drug cartels poised to seize it

With just two words, the top uniformed officer in the Customs and Border Protection agency sent shockwaves across official Washington two months ago when asked whether his agency has operational control of the southern U.S. border.

"No, sir," Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz told Congress in a shocking admission that exposed just how badly border security has deteriorated under President Joe Biden.

At the time, illegal crossings at the border in March were averaging 5,000 a day, far more than the historical average of 2,000 daily at the end of the Trump administration.

By last week, those crossing had exploded to a record 10,000 a day as the pandemic-related Title 42 order allowing migrants to be turned away expired.

Border officials says illegal crossings will soon shoot up to 11,000 to 16,000 daily. With each increase under Biden, more border patrol agents are being torn from their security roles and moved to process migrants and release them into the country.

When the total hits 16,000 daily, only 10% of available border agents will be on patrol and the drug cartels will have full control, says Brandon Judd, a border patrol agent and the president of the National Border Patrol Council, the union representing border agent.

Judd says the crisis point will emerge in a few weeks when media attention to the end of Title 42 subsides and the cartels take full advantage.

“Its all part of the last days”

Well it is all part of the last days of the Deep State cabal. That’s for sure. Things are going to get pretty bad for a little while.

Remember when Trump said “I didn’t sign the insurrection act because I wanted everyone to see how bad it would be if things were run poorly” ? That is what is happening.

If things don’t get really really bad the public won’t accept radical measures to make things right.

I’ve watched enough South Park to know that when life in America sucks so bad, illegal emigration will exceed illegal immigration, and the day laborers will leave the house of bondage led by Butters. South Park said it. It must be true.

Gee... what must the locals be thinking?

Their problem today is our problem tomorrow, yès that’s one thing they must be thinking.

What else? That’s a question, face value.

If the media actually cared about this country, this would NEVER happen. They are willing participants in the overthrow of the US.

83,000 invaders in a week——

EACH one is handed a SWAG BAG that contains a cell phone & EBT card with a minimum of $250 loaded on it.

$250 X 83,000 == $20,750,000 IN ONE WEEK !!!!

EBT cards preloaded with $ 250 X 6 million == $1,500,000,000 AND Biden won’t DISCUSS the Debt Limit.

ONE & ONE HALF BILLION

Sure wish a GOP Congress person would shout out loud about this money.

When the invaders reach critical mass the EBT cards will be turned off. That’s when the real fun begins.

DOD “research” shows people rioting in the streets after missing four meals.

Ater ten day they start killing and eating each other..

Most are actually in survival mode from this invasive onslaught forced against citizens.....It’s really looking like whoever is pulling the strings of our government has an agenda to replace anyone who isn’t on the socialist bandwagon....all these invaders are programmed socialists....easy to lead and make compliant to the World Order Cabal.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg in costs to the country, taxpayers, and our sovereignty.

Viewed a number of vids of Chinese border jumpers that made me kinda uneasy. Noticed a number of them dodging the camera, some pretty blatant, others being slick about it - just happened to be turning or reaching for something to their side or behind.
 
Then there were the hard looking dudes, not ducking or dodging at all, glaring right into the camera. Certainly not having the vibe of a standard-issue asylum seeking type. Yeah there's things to be concerned about.

Every state can call military to protect every state, from an invasion.

Every individual in congress has a duty to recognize treasonous action, and protect our nation and the citizens from danger.

Neither is being done and that alone should shake every person elected, to do what is required... remove the danger.. take up the mantle ffom those who have abandoned it.

Every dept of the government is corrupt... someone who are not aligned with the corrupted STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING

Find your back bone and do what is called for!!!
