Tucson Sector Border Patrol Chief Runs Out of Adjectives to Describe Biden’s Crisis

Tuesday’s hearing was held by the House Oversight Committee to discuss the U.S.-Mexico Border Crisis. This crisis is being fuelled by President Joe Biden’s catch-and release illegal immigration policies. 

Responding to questions from Republicans Tucson Sector Border Patrol Chief John Modlin (whom Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas attempted to stop from testingifying), Modlin said that he had run out of adjectives for describing the extraordinary situation.

Chief Modlin’s word is, I believe, “I believe” “catastrophic”.

House Democrats spent two years trying to conceal testimony like this from the rest of the world. Those days are gone. https://t.co/dOpp8WvS6h

The current border crisis can’t be described by the U.S. Border Patrol.

American citizens deserve to know all the facts about their efforts in fighting the worst border crisis American history. https://t.co/THjcPPb6Lc

The Committee also identified 98 terrorists who were illegally brought into the United States. This represents a small fraction of the over 500,000 people who crossed the border without detection last year.

Border Patrol agents have apprehended 98 suspected terrorists within the past year.

This is a significant increase over previous years.

The world knows that our border is open to bad actors and it’s being exploited.https://twitter.com/RepLisaMcClain?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>@RepLisaMcClain This highlights the national security crisis. pic.twitter.com/g7mNfLnkqM
