Border Patrol agents in the Rio Grande Valley Sector continue to be overwhelmed by the numbers of illegal border crossers, they say. The sector continues to lead the nation in Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC), Family Unit Aliens (FMUA), and total apprehensions.
We are seeing huge numbers this year,” Agent Cabrera stated. “The numbers in February were much higher than the same month in the previous two years.
During the first six months of this fiscal year (which began on October 1, 2017), CBP reports indicate that RGV Sector agents apprehended more than 52,000 illegal immigrants.
“We have the buildings to handle the influx of these people,” Cabrera explained, “but we don’t have the manpower. The influx is causing agents to be taken off the front line to assist with processing the families and unaccompanied minors. This leads to gaps in security and not enough agents to back each other up in the field.”
Cabrera outlined the consequences.
“This leads to lawsuits against the agency for overcrowding and not being able to meet court-imposed processing deadlines,” he continued. “It also creates an agent safety issue when we don’t have enough agents on the line to provide backup.”
Border Patrol agents are frequently assaulted while on duty, Breitbart Texas reported. During the first six months of Fiscal Year 2018, CBP indicated that illegal aliens assaulted more than 230 agents.
Cabrera said most of the migrants arrested after crossing the border from Mexico come from Central America. CBP statistics show that Guatemala heads up the list this fiscal year with 8,814 UACs and 16,421 FMUAs. This is followed by migrants from Honduras, Mexico, and El Salvador.
Cabrera said they also see large numbers of Chinese nationals apprehended along the border and at inland checkpoints.

Trump says he’ll guard Mexican border with military

My dad served with the Special Forces, fighting for the people of South Vietnam, while wetbacks sneaked across the SoCal border, invading my home state.
59,000 good Americans died fighting someone else’s civil war, while Mexico slowly colonized our country. And it goes on, in Iraq, Afghanistan, and a dozen other third world hellholes where the people hate us.
Cover all of the Southern border with the military.
Today Trump says he will uses the military.

This is the town I grew up in. 30 years ago it was 99% white. Check out the demographics now.
“About time to put a bounty on them.”
Agree 100%.
Set up fenced, armed tent camps to hold them. Water, beans and rice. No electronics or goodies of any type. Hold there until deported to home countries.
ENOUGH!
You notice how quickly Ryan and McConnell have moved to correct that “loophole” that allows all of these Central American invaders to stay here once they get a foot across the border?
What? Oh. Nevermind.
“Cabrera said they also see large numbers of Chinese nationals apprehended along the border and at inland checkpoints”
What’s with all the Chi Coms? That reads like the first phase of the Korean War when our troops pushed the Norks back toward the Yalu then BOOM!
Chi Coms were also caught smuggling in Ak 47s. Wonder how many made it in with out detection? They are also buying up property in California.
Just imagine, able bodied men/women come to the USA on work visas. All have military training. Just in case they are needed?
I read an article the other day, it’s estimated that over half a million Middle Eastern Terrorists are here already.
Could be some trouble somewhere along the line.
Visa overstays are also a problem as their numbers have risen.
They come in legally but fail to leave when the visa expires.
The numbers are in the 600,000 per year range now.
