Now that the Republicans are in the House, we are starting to get some real feedback on the issues at the border.
This week, Chief Patrol Agent John Modlin dropped a bit of a bombshell in regard to a possible terror threat.
With more than one million gotaways over the last two years, there is a real possibility that we have terrorists roaming around in our country right now.
Bad News
Chief Modlin did not deliver good news.
He stated, “To speculate who could possibly be in the ‘gotaways’ or the unknowns would just simply be speculation.
“All I can tell you is that it is a tremendous concern that anyone goes through the border undetected, but the reality is that we know that there are people getting by.”
His comments were followed up by the Chief Patrol Agent for the Rio Grande Valley, Gloria Chavez.
She stated, “Due to its proximity to the border of Southern Mexico and Central America, RGV is identified as a major corridor by cartels and transnational criminal organizations, and it is exploited daily for human smuggling, narcotics trafficking, and other illicit activities.”
Chavez even sent out an offer to Congress, stating, “Whenever Congress is ready to put that team together, look at Border Patrol agents to come in and advise you.
“If we don’t have the right policies or consequences, the world is watching us — we’re going to continue to see these large migration flows from around the world entering here at our southern border.”
Let’s hope they take her up on that offer.
