The truth at this point will not matter. At minimum the Agent will have to write memo explaining that it was not a whip and give a detailed account of the arrest and everything leading up to it. Then then patrol which never has the Agents backs will look for any possible policy violation no matter how small so that they can discipline the Agent. There are some many policies that an agent can unknowingly violate so I won’t be surprised if they find a violation. It is even against policy to buy a coffee on duty, of course everyone ignores that policy, but it is there if they want to find a reason to discipline an agent.

Psaki,

You said they are being vaccinated because they don't intend to stay here,, so what is the problem? Answer the question!

Yup it’s just reins. Flat-braided leather, same as the horses bridle. Not hard to distinguish if one just looks closely at the picture.

Psaki and the media in general are simply too stupid and too biased to tell the truth or even try to determine the truth. Media is the enemy of the people.

You need to read it....The cowboy was using the reins as a whip....and I believe that the whip thing is a totally perceived image and not what was going on. The reins are flailing in the wind....not hitting anyone.

Not just fake...outright lying.

There are consequences when you enter a country illegally...it appears the illegal has grabbed the reign of the Border Patrol's horse. Jen Psaki and Kamala Harris need to understand if a country has no borders, you have no country. These Haitians and others are breaking the law....Biden is the real crook here.

The last thing this administration wants to do is draw attention to the border, in any context. It’s like the January 6 hearings; the “truth” they want exposed is very selective because the “whole” truth would prove to be extremely embarrassing.

All of the illegal Haitians are carrying prepared food and what looks like a lifewater or a gatorade.

Where did they get the money to buy that, or are the groceries provided on our dime?

And not a single reporter asked what those guys are doing barefoot in the scrub desert around Del Rio?

And I spent a childhood north of there and didn’t go out barefoot.

I didn’t see the photo but does this agent ride a horse when patrolling?

A revolver is usually much more effective than a whip.
