What's happening at the southern U.S. border with Mexico is in fact an invasion, Kinney County Sheriff Brad Coe says. “We’re experiencing a silent invasion of military age men,” Coe told The Center Square when describing what his deputies have been increasingly facing over the past two years. He spoke with The Center Square during an Operation Lone Star task force multi-day operation during which law enforcement officers rescued foreign nationals from a burning vehicle and revived a five-year-old girl being smuggled who’d been stashed inside of a car’s trunk. The “silent invasion,” Coe said, is being committed primarily by...

The New York Times published a blockbuster report on Saturday that details massive nationwide child labor horrors taking place because of Joe Biden opening the border to unaccompanied children in 2021 after President Trump fought hard to shut down child trafficking. The children are working to pay off their debts to cartel traffickers and their sponsors here, as well as to send remittances to their families back home. The Times found children working in factories and plants of major American companies and their suppliers across the country. “Migrant child labor benefits both under-the-table operations and global corporations, the Times found....

In Denver, the murder and assault rates are twice the national rates, and three times the national rate for rapes and robberies.

Migrant patients are overwhelming a border town's sole hospital, straining medical resources and placing the facility on the brink of collapse without sufficient funding to accommodate the influx of people. Dr. Robert Transchel, the president and CEO of Yuma, Arizona's Yuma Regional Medical Center, told co-hsot Rachel Campos-Duffy Sunday on "Fox & Friends Weekend" that the problem is nothing new. "It's been a long journey," he said. "We've been at this for well over a year now. We tracked our uncompensated care for a period of over six months, and we calculated that we've provided over $20 million in uncompensated...

Contrary to political rhetoric, Mexican-style cartel killings and gun battles appear to have already reached the U.S. and are spreading — particularly in California. The region experienced an explosive growth of cartel marijuana grow operations that are taking advantage of legalization and lax laws. This week, federal authorities clashed with one of two gunmen who are accused of killing a family of six — including a 16-year-old female and her baby. The murders took place last month in Tulare County, California, in what some authorities have dubbed a cartel killing.

Horror surveillance footage has revealed the moment gang members butchered a family-of-six in an execution-style shooting in a California family home on January 16. Two gang members now have been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting. The arrests were announced Friday by the Tulare County Sheriff's Office, with the suspects named as 25-year-old Noah David Beard and 35-year-old Angel 'Nanu' Uriarte.

Comedian Louis C.K. suggested during an episode of Joe Rogan's podcast that Americans should not ‘sequester’ themselves by caring more about each other than they do about other countries. The controversial comedian Louis C.K., appeared on Saturday's episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience," where he hammered Americans for prioritizing their safety. "You’re not supposed to be happy, and you’re not supposed to be safe, I think that that’s the problem is that people expect that-you’re not happy when you’re safe, you’re not happy when you’re secure," Louis C.K. said.

Inland border patrol checkpoints vital for stemming the tide of drugs and illegal migrants into the country have been closed for months as officers are diverted to admin duties, sources told The Post. The checkpoints are stationed 25 to 100 miles north of the US-Mexico border and act as a second line of defense. Sources explained how once people smugglers or drug runners make it past the international border they start to let their guard slip and an extra checkpoint can often catch them out. Drugs are flowing through Arizona. In October 2022, an Arizona Department of Public Safety traffic...

Now, I know no one could have predicted this, but taking a pro-delinquency approach to public policy actually leads to cultural and societal degradation; nowhere is that more obvious than in the leftist strongholds of the West Coast. Check out this Monday headline from The Daily Beast: “Seattle Morgue Struggling to Accommodate Glut of Fentanyl Deaths”. The opening blurb from the article reads:As it scrambles to address a rapid rise in fentanyl overdose deaths, Washington state’s largest county by population is ‘struggling’ to make space for all the bodies piling up in its morgue, an official said last week.Under the...

Look for news coming out about the Darien Gap mass migration-migration route through Panama. I was just down there for two weeks with some really fine men, and it was quite eye-opening and informative. The others are still down there on their mission, so I can't provide a lot of details at this point. Ben Berquam, Oscar Blue and Michael Yon will be on Bannon War Room when they are available to make reports.

Two left-wing nonprofits have combined to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer-backed government contracts since President Biden took office, with a vast majority of the money going towards efforts to keep illegal immigrants in the United States, records reviewed by Fox News Digital shows. The Vera Institute of Justice, a New York-based group that views immigration enforcement agencies as a "threat" to civil liberties, has been the primary breadwinner in the past two years, collecting around $350 million from government contracts for immigration services. The Acacia Center for Justice, a newer nonprofit linked to the Vera Institute...

YUMA, Ariz. – A major border city is on the brink of collapse as the migrant surge under President Biden's leadership overloads food banks and hospitals and threatens food security, a Yuma official told Fox News."Policies need to be changed when you see an unprecedented amount of people coming across the border that even supersedes what we saw under any of the other presidents for the past 30 years," Yuma County Supervisor Jonathan Lines told Fox News. "And they're coming because they said that Biden told them to come, that we have an open border."

Space issues have become so acute at the Seattle-King County morgue in Washington state that local officials are considering keeping bodies on gurneys and partnering with local funeral homes for storage as emergency stop-gap measures. “A key indication of just how bad things are … the medical examiner’s office is now struggling with the issue of storing bodies because the fentanyl-related death toll continues to climb,” Seattle-King County Public Health Director Dr. Faisal Khan said at a Board of Health meeting last week, according to KTTH radio. “Obviously, they have finite space in the coolers they use, and that space...

Business owners in Houston, Texas, say that a crime spree described as a "relentless wave" of robberies is forcing them to sleep at their businesses overnight armed with guns. Coaches Pub owner Robert Curry told KHOU-TV that he saved up money for many years and moved to Houston to purchase a bar and accomplish his dream. “I lived in my RV for the first four months that I was here in Houston to get it started,” Curry said. “And honestly, it was my baby.” But just eight months later, he says that a string of robberies might put him out...

The bloodbath early Monday unfolded in the small town of Goshen at a property well-known to cops as a base for gang and drug activity, Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux said while announcing a $10,000 reward. At least one of the victims was a member of the Sureño gang who’d been busted days earlier for an illegal stash of drugs and high-powered weapons — but quickly released because of soft bail laws. “It is very clear that this family was a target and that there are gang associations involved as well as drug investigations,” the sheriff said a day after...

At least six people, including a mother and her 6-month-old baby, are dead after an “early morning massacre” Monday that authorities in Goshen, California, said may be related to cartel activity.

Joe Biden is in Mexico meeting with the President of Mexico Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. He delivered some remarks with the two other leaders on Tuesday. I reported earlier on what Biden said about the classified documents in his office at the Penn Biden Center. But he also made remarks about illegal immigration and the problem at our Southern border. First, AMLO gave him a left-handed compliment, but I’m not sure that Biden is bright enough to pick up on what the Mexican President was truly saying. ... “You, President Biden, you are the...
