Over 24K app’d, 5800 removed, 6000 TOT ICE, that leaves about 12K released into the communities for the state and locals to absorb…also, of the 6000 TOT ICE, ICE will likely release many of those….not USBP’s fault, it’s DHS’s priorities..
@SenatorHeinrich
Come on Senator, this bill does not improve border security, it facilitates migrants. Now, if you’re serious about border security you’d ask Schumer to bring up HR2…stop conflating immigration and border security and secure the border first…. Then let’s talk immigration.
It’s a shame that our elected officials can’t discern between lawful controlled immigration and unlawful illegal immigration. Arizona is paying the price.
Secure the Border!
ICYMI:
@GovernorHobbs
uses her first veto of the year as Arizona Governor to strike down the “Alien Invasion Act” that would have allowed police to arrest illegal border crossers. Hobbs says the legislation is “not the solution” and it would be a burden on law enforcement.

Over 170,000 entered the US that did not have status but either were arrested, flown in via parole, or let in because they used the CBP1 app. Approximately 120,000 were released into our country. That’s no victory! Secure the Border, Secure America!
Below is the CBP arrest data from CBP. This information is on their website.

Now we officially know that fearless and relentless Border Journalists like Ali Bradley are the most dangerous thing in the entire country to this administration and the meat puppet sycophants at US Border Patrol and U.S. Customs and Border Protection
This is truly embarrassing
The Senate Bill was trash- this administration has not put forth any meaningful border security measures or policies. All they have done is focused on facilitating illegal aliens. They are solely responsible for millions of illegal entries and rolled back policies that worked!
Congressional Republicans have twice voted against the toughest and fairest set of border security reforms we’ve ever seen in this country.
Weaponizing the border won’t get us anywhere. Meaningful action will.
Awesome video/interview from

The latest I saw was an estimate of 1.9M gotaways since Biden/Harris took over… please let’s run on accomplishments and records! Secure the Border, Secure America!
NEW: More than 700 “gotaways” were recorded yesterday alone according to CBP sources.
The day prior it was roughly 415.
We have already seen more than 6,000 illegal immigrants successfully evade law enforcement this month.
I keep reading posts that “ no one is above the law”, but every day thousands violate our laws by entering our country illegally, conspiring to do so, aiding and abetting others and lying to federal agents. Secure our Border, Secure America!
This is why we must Secure the Border first above all, protecting Americans. Without a secure border every town is a border town and every state is a border state!
As we have been reporting at
@NewsNation
—We have been seeing an uptick in migrants from “specialist interest countries” seeking asylum at the southern border in multiple sectors including the Tucson Sector.
This memo went out to “San Diego Field Office” agents— Not everyone got
The President’s Executive Order is not about border security. There is nothing that increases security, there are no directions to secure the border. Nothing reduces illegal crossings. There will likely be a lawsuit and it will be put on hold and they will blame Congress.
What I have learned is these parents are complicit and/or the smugglers are separating these families before they cross… regardless it’s horrible what happens to these children!
We have a problem people! We are again detailing agents from other parts of the country, this makes those areas less safe too!
Enough, Secure the Border!
AZ: 👀 Watch as a woman from Mexico crosses over the wall with the help of smugglers—She is apprehended out in the brush by Border Patrol less than an hour later in Naco (which is in Cochise County/Tucson Sector).
At one point, agents were watching 12 different individuals who
Just go to the CBP website and see the stats…. Well over 7M entering our southern border under this administration and if expand it out with all CBP and got aways over 9M.
NEW NUMBERS: Per CBP sources...
Since Dec 1st... 200,000+ migrant encounters at the southern border - w/ an average of more than 10,000/day...
Since FY24 began on Oct 1st... 686,000+ migrant encounters at the southern border...
Last 24 hrs... 11,600+
@FoxNews
AZ: Happening now: Hundreds of undocumented individuals huddled around fires in Lukeville—Some of them have been waiting 2-3 days out here to be transported/processed.
There are roughly 100 people as part of a family unit waiting—They are separated but get priority, and they
Unaccompanied children are 17 years or younger without a parent or legal guardian. Oftentimes the children are separated from family by smugglers before they cross to ensure they get into the US and placed with HHS, if lucky their info and POC is in their possession.
Over 5,800 unaccompanied children have arrived at the border this FYTD 2024. Traveling alone can be a scary and dangerous experience. The El Paso Sector Border Patrol agents are always prepared to encounter & aid this vulnerable population.

I see an attempt by House Democrats to strip protections and rights from Americans who have protectee status. I wish they would support protection for Americans by securing our border, rather than fighting against it. Secure the Border, Secure America!
Live at the Northern Border… upriver a couple hundred miles in Swanton, VT they have seen record breaking high numbers and an alarming acceleration of illegal entries. Regardless of the location, Border Security is National Security! Secure the Border, Secure America!
17 and under without parents or legal guardians… that’s how an unaccompanied child is defined by the Congressionally approved TVPRA.
Had enough yet?
Save the children and Secure the Border!
NEW: 11,095 unaccompanied children are currently in HHS/ORR custody— 406 crossed yesterday, alone.
The last time we had 11k+ unaccompanied children in HHS custody was July 28th, 2022.
Feels like deja vu today.
I took the images on the left exactly two years ago to the day, as 15,000 Haitians crossed illegally into Del Rio, TX.
I took the images on the right today, as thousands of migrants from Venezuela & around the world crossed illegally into Eagle Pass, TX.
It was great to be in McAllen with people from around the country who wanted to learn and stay informed. Glad

The border crisis continues to be an issue that has not been properly addressed. I was invited by
@AFPhq
to speak about solutions to this growing problem during a visit to the border in McAllen, Texas. There we heard from a former U.S. Border Patrol Chief about the challenges
‘Pseudeo-legitimate’ travel agencies in Senegal offering ‘complete packages’ to get migrants to US border
Precisely why we have pushed back on the “asylum seeker” narrative the last few years… this is a coordinated plan…
My thoughts tonight regarding the news today that 8 nationals of Tajikistan w/ suspected ISIS ties were arrested after crossing the southern border illegally & initially had no derogatory info flag during vetting.
For years, my border contacts have told me vetting is inadequate.
Biden admin admits migrant drownings occurred before Border Patrol alerted Texas officials
Say it isn’t so? I’m actually impressed they admitted this… Secure the Border!

Happy to host along with others from Yuma. Border Security is not a left,middle or right political issue, it is an American issue! Thank you
@NicoleShanahan
for understanding and listening to those that have been and continue to be impacted.
I’ll be honest: I didn’t understand the gravity of the crisis at the border until today when I sat with NGO leaders who are on the front lines in Yuma Arizona. This is a human trafficking crisis impacting the lives of millions. The good people of Yuma are shouldering the costs.
Border Security is National Security! Whether it’s our Southern, Northern or Coastal Borders, we must secure them to keep us safe! Secure the Border, Secure America!
On 12/1, a USBP agent in Laredo, TX rescued a subject from drowning in the Rio Grande!
Thanks to the body-worn camera, you are right there w/ the agent as he risks his own life to save another.
Still busy… don’t let the slow month fool you… we are still tracking to be the 3rd busiest of Biden’s four years… the number of Special Interest Countries continues!
NEW: Per CBP sources, 3,593 Chinese nationals were apprehended after crossing the southern border illegally during the month of May, 98% of which (3,517) were in the San Diego sector.
770+ Jordanians, 670+ Turkish, and 500+ Mauritanians also were recorded crossing illegally in

Woah. The Chief of U.S. Border Patrol reports that over 52,000 Special Interest Aliens have already been encountered crossing illegally just since October 1st, almost 90% of which have been in San Diego sector. These are illegal aliens from countries w/ possible security concerns
Imagine that! When they do a victory lap at lower numbers they leave this part out, 30K a month have been coming in through this “ pathway”. It’s an abuse of parole authority… Secure the Border, Secure America!
The program has been used by the Biden admin to bring more than 500,000 Venezuelans, Cubans, Haitians, & Nicaraguans into the U.S. via direct flights. The reports found significant fraud in sponsor applications, including:

Don’t forget our Northern Border! Swanton Sector recorded over 3300 arrests in June alone. While the attention on volume is at the southern border, threats at our northern border cannot be ignored! Secure the Border, Secure America!
If you ever wanted to know what a pull factor was, this is it, and it’s a big one! The first few months of this administration we thought ineptness, but we knew better- now they don’t hide it! Americans pay the price. Secure the Border, Secure America!
Over 260K arrests in San Diego since October, 78% have been released. You think this Administration is gonna be tough now? Secure the Border, Secure America!
In case you needed to read it again… do not fall for the gaslighting. I have said repeatedly this administration is “more serious about securing their narrative than securing the border!”
CBP reporting the lowest number of crossings since September of 2020—104,116 people were encountered by agents and officers at the southern border.

Nationwide the encounters surpassed 170,000 for July (includes northern and coastal
Nothing in the Senate Bill or the Executive Order would or is preventing illegal entry. HR2 would have made an impact for the better. The vulnerability this Administration has created to our border and country is reckless!

That’s a wrap on this border trip to Lukeville, AZ. Wild week of mass illegal crossings in a very remote area. Thankful to work with such a great team. Have a great weekend & see y’all on the next one.
This past week alone, illegal aliens were arrested for rapes of 2 women in NYC, the rape of a pregnant woman in MA, & the attempted rape of another woman in MA. A Peruvian gang leader wanted for 23 murders also arrested.
All were caught & released at border under Biden admin.
AZ: This is at the Ajo station in the Tucson Sector—And it’s happening daily according to sources.
The majority of the families are from
Ecuador—The single adults meanwhile are from Senegal, India, Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.
@USBPChiefTCA
says they saw a record 14,300+
Great footage… we need more agents, infrastructure, technology and policies along with more aggressive cooperation from our foreign partners to stop this nonsense!
The Border Czar aka the Vice President has been responsible for no less than 10 million illegal entries while in charge of this critical security requirement. Please run on your record!
NEW: 420 children crossed into the U.S. alone yesterday according to DHS.
10,280 are currently in

ORR custody.
Week over week—The number of unaccompanied minors crossing the border is surpassing 400.
The 30-day average for children in federal custody is 377 up from 353
AZ: The Tucson sector saw 2800+ people on a single day—The influx is prompting CBP to take an “all hands on deck” posture, pulling agents from all areas including the nearby port of entry.
Last week, Tucson Sector Border Patrol encountered nearly 15,700 migrants.

NEW: At 1:30AM this morning, we witnessed an enormous mass illegal crossing of hundreds of people from around the world into Jacumba, CA, in San Diego County. We encountered men from Mauritania (special interest aliens), Nepal, India, China, Vietnam, & many others. No Mexicans.
SCOOP: Border agents detained 3 Palestinians who illegally crossed the San Diego border & placed them on the terror watchlist.
One of the migrants had “salacious photos” on their phone — including the below picture of a masked man holding an AK-47 rifle.

! Thanks for having me on and taking the time to navigate the complexities of our border! Border Security is National Security!
For two straight years I tried to tell them, the Administration has caused all of this, the solutions were in place but politics and spite rule… here we are nearly 3 years later. 🤷♂️
Partisans in Washington must see the wide-ranging effects of our border crisis, including the damage the Lukeville Port closure has on local businesses like the Why Not Travel Store.
We're working to reopen the port, secure the border, & ensure the humane treatment of migrants.
@RubenGallego
No, facts got in the way… this did not address the security that is needed to address the crisis. However, you get consolation points for admitting it’s a crisis!
This is why we MUST secure our borders so we can catch every one of these predators…. Don’t allow the uninformed to continue to conflate border security and immigration, they are related, but not the same!
3/13: USBP agents in Uvalde, TX arrested an illegal migrant from Ecuador. He is a child predator w/ a 2014 conviction for Sexual Assault of a victim under 13, serving 6 years in prison.
Now, we need the AUSA to prosecute, the judge to convict, & ICE to remove him from the U.S.
Kamala Harris is trying to flip the script on her failures as border czar, but the numbers don't lie.

Governor Newsom’s office responds - confirming that the CA National Guard is not assisting Border Patrol in Jacumba where the mass illegal crossings are taking place, and is instead only focusing on ports of entry, where legal crossings take place.

This doesn’t include what ICE may have released within a few days of taking custody from CBP….. the vary nature that they were released means they are not a DHS priority per Secretary priorities memoranda.
BREAKING: New CBP data reveals Border Patrol released over 900,000 migrants into the U.S. in fiscal year 2023 after they were apprehended crossing illegally, including a staggering 155,821 releases in September alone.
These numbers do not include ICE or ports of entry releases.
Breaking records back to back… oh wait , these are not the records we want broken. If policies were effective the numbers approaching our border would drop significantly, however the opposite is occurring and making us more vulnerable as agents are tied up with the mass give

Reminder, on day one of this admin Biden did the following:
1. Ended Trump’s border wall construction
2. Rescinded Trump’s hawkish deportation policies
3. Put in place a 100 day moratorium on deportations

@EngelForArizona
Congressman
@JuanCiscomani
introduced the Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act… it passed the House… sounds like he’s trying to protect our borders.. He supports HR 2 which the Senate refused to take up.
Today’s failure to pass the horrendous Senate Bill is an example of American’s belief in security and the sham that this Administration and others have been trying to pull off. Secure the Border, Secure America! Then we can work on immigration!
AZ: Overnight a group of 900+ arrived in Lukeville to self surrender to Border Patrol—Many of them are waiting for days to be transported/processed. There are still roughly 700 people out here mostly from Senegal, Guinea, Liberia, and Mauritania—Sources say roughly 40% are family
Curious what the daily “acceptable” illegal alien entry number will be in the bill? I heard rumors of 3000-5000 per day. If Congress has a bill that knowingly allows illegal activity in it, then they are not representing the majority of Americans! The acceptable number is Zero!
We crafted a tough but fair border security proposal that offers real solutions.
When the bill is out, we’ll have a choice: take a bipartisan deal that actually secures the border and supports AZ communities, OR take *nothing* to keep playing politics.
I know what I’m choosing.
SCOOP: Border Patrol has 10K migrants in custody and recorded 4,000 illegal migrant encounters at the southern border yesterday
The Biden admin's attempt at deterrence doesn't appear to be changing anything in the first few days of a new exec order...
