What you're seeing in the footage above are busses full of migrants. They're coming from Mexico's southern border and they're being escorted by Mexican police to their northern border, which is, of course, our southern border.
The Mexican government is bussing tens of thousands of migrants just to come across our border. The result is scenes like we saw in El Paso earlier this week, where a caravan of over 1,000 migrants crossed the river in one morning and overwhelmed the city's homeless shelters.
This is part of a bigger problem that nobody ever really addresses: communication with other countries.
Under President Trump, we had agreements with Mexico and the Northern Triangle countries which stopped the flow of migrants. The Mexican government was stopping migrants from coming across their southern border. Mexican police guarded their northern border looking southward.
So when you see an entire caravan of these buses being escorted by Mexican police, you better believe that the Biden Administration absolutely knows about it and has sanctioned it.
And why aren't migrants deported once they cross over? It's the State Department's job to establish agreements with other countries to accept immigrant deportation flights. They aren’t doing this. Even if Immigrations and Customs Enforcement had all the planes and holding facilities it needed, there wouldn’t be anywhere to go, in some cases.
In the midst of all this chaos, Secretary Mayorkas actually paid a visit to El Paso this week. Did he go to see the border or visit the processing center? No. Did he address the migrant bussing crisis? No.
Instead Mayorkas had the nerve to look Border Patrol agents in the eye and say “I never said the border was secure.” Except he did say the border was secure in testimony before the House Judiciary Committee last month.
Mayorkas is a complete failure as leader of our Border Patrol and must face accountability for his dereliction of duty to secure the homeland. Republicans are going to do everything we can in the new Congress to make that happen.
