RIO GRANDE VALLEY - The threat of danger looms over thousands of undocumented immigrants who cross the border daily.

The vice-president of the Border Patrol union in the Rio Grande Valley says agents are seeing more of what they call "pseudo families" or "fake families."

Many undocumented immigrants are desperate to get to their final destination.

They're pretending to be related to each other to improve their chances.

The spokesperson for the local border patrol union says it's working.

It's also dangerous.

Border Patrol union representative, Chris Cabrera said, "It's frustrating to know that people are you know working the system like they are."

Cabrera says there is nothing they can do. They don't have the time or resources.

Cabrera is talking about "pseudo families."

Undocumented immigrants traveling alone are lying to border patrol agents. The adults are telling federal officials they are here with their children.

"You're having unaccompanied children with unaccompanied adults and they're coming together and saying...

This is with the full encouragement of Obama and his fellow travelers, just like the script of standard questions and answers that are given to the illegals before they cross the border. If something happens to the kids, it is all for the Obama greater good and will be used to demand even more money for “children at risk.”

If the kids are injured or die, the border problem complicates and becomes more urgent for the despoiler-in-chief. For his purposes, that is a good thing.

I can’t believe this crap, they’re trying to legitimize crime. Say you know what: why don’t they have the kids shoplift because you know, the kid has relatives in the US and that makes it perfectly OK. No need to buy anything, he has a right to shoplift and if you’re against that you’re racist. Just let him completely bypass the cash register and take anything he wants. This is insane, because every person in the world who wants to come into the US is now going to think all they have to do is cross the border in Mexico. Gee, ya think Al-Qaeda is going to ignore that?

I was bashing on the libs on this San Fran website the other day, nothing vicious or anything, and it’s absolutely insane the mindset of the people there. Bashing Pelosi there is like bashing their God. They actually worship this psychotic bitch. I must have been called “Teabagger” like 50 times. They are so utterly and completely brainwashed by this bitch which is why she’s like Obama: Able to do absolutely anything she wants without any fear of retribution.

Yep, at least he’s honest. Like one guy was saying: He’s the most efficient President in history. He’s pretty much accomplished everything he set out to do. Destroy the US healthcare system, destroy the economy, raise the debt, empower radical Islam, help radical Muslims take over Egypt, Libya now Iraq, free terrorists from Gitmo, arm terrorists, arm Mexican drug gangs, assist a foreign nation in invading the US, on an on and on. What we got here is an enemy of the US in the nations highest office and Democrats and Republicans in Congress just sit back and twiddle their thumbs while he systematically “fundamentally changes America.”

Even though their lying begins as soon as the BP starts questioning them, they are released and allowed to go where they please, free upon their own recognizance—if they promise to check back in with ICE.
Amazing, ain’t it?

Fake families? Reminds me of the current White House occupiers.

the whole ‘teabagger’ thing is so hypocritical. Teabagging is a gay activity so those idiots are putting down gay men in an attempt to degrade straights. But that’s liberal logic for you. Of course, if a gay man were to do a “don’t pick on britney’ utube, only about teabagging, then the liberals would never use the term again for fear of being seen as gayphobic!

It doesn’t matter if urban black youth unemployment is above 50% - throw a few million unskilled gangsters from points south of the border in the mix and they can all hold hands in their pajamas with their hot chocolate and sing we-are-the-world in LiberalLala Land - oh wait, we already tried that....

The Hilary Clinton phrase “it takes a village” takes on a new angle here as these illegals being dropped off in different cities, to them the US is their village that will raise them (on taxpayer’s dime).

The first responsibility of any national government is to secure its borders. Total fail.

President Trainwreck just simply doesn't care. He will continue to blame Republicans and continue on. He is a narcissist and only cares about himself.
