We have between 10,000 and 11,000, give or take a few hundred.
We really don't need anymore. If the DHS management would let the BP off it's leash, they would be much more effective.
So DHS management is the culprit? Are they deliberately sabotaging the border patrol? Is DHS getting their "marching orders" from the White House? All this time I thought the problem was due to an extreme manpower shortage!!!!
