The enhanced safety inspections announcement comes in reaction to the Biden Administration\u2019s order to end the Title 42 coronavirus protection protocol in May.<\/p>\n<p>Governor Abbott announced a series of steps on Wednesday afternoon in Weslaco, Texas, to expand Operation Lone Star \u2014 the State\u2019s response to the open borders policies of the Biden administration.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe first involves inspections,\u201d Abbott began. \u201cA zero-tolerance policy for unsafe vehicles for smuggling migrants across the border is being implemented immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The governor ordered the Texas Department of Public Safety to increase safety inspections on vehicles crossing the border from Mexico into Texas. Colonel Steve McCraw, Director of the Texas DPS, told the governor his order would go into effect at 4 p.m. Wednesday afternoon. He said the State identified 28 locations to carry out these safety inspections and are prepared to begin those operations today.<\/p>\n<p>McCraw added that the cartels that smuggle migrants into Texas do not care about public safety. \u201cThey don\u2019t care about how many people they poison. They don\u2019t care about how many people they kill.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>McCraw said the use of commercial vehicles to move migrants into Texas and then into the U.S. interior is increasing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously, these vehicles are unsafe themselves,\u201d the DPS director explained. \u201cBut, they\u2019re even more unsafe because they\u2019re carrying people inside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Border Patrol agents and U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers are expected to be overwhelmed with migrant crossings in the days and weeks following the expected end to Title 42 in late May. Resources of many federal law enforcement agencies are supposed to be stretched thin as they respond to the expected spike in already record-setting border crossings.<\/p>\n<p>Texas Congressman Michael McCaul (R-TX) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/michael-mccaul-biden-title-42-border-never-this-bad\">told<\/a> Fox News on Wednesday that the administration is anticipating approximately 500,000 migrants to cross the border in the weeks following the end of Title 42.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re talking about 500,000 in the next five weeks,\u201d McCaul told Fox News. \u201cThat would be 100,000 people per week coming into the country. We don\u2019t know who they are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mexican cartels have historically used the mass migration spikes as a tool to tie up federal law enforcement resources to enable them to move large quantities of fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin, and other illicit drugs across the border, Border Patrol officials previously told Breitbart Texas.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/author\/bob-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/author\/bob-price\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1583344635394000&#038;usg=AFQjCNFbc5T2NTdEL9_YFsQbXuOF3xOKVQ\"><em>Bob Price<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0serves as associate editor and senior news contributor for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1583344635394000&#038;usg=AFQjCNHrdMnYOa5wlYK9eCiMk9vHw1BGNg\">Breitbart Texas-Border team<\/a>.
