In a recent interview with NewsNation host Chris Cuomo, Ortiz discusses the current situation at the border and the decisions he would have made if given the opportunity.<\/p>\n<h3>Investing in Infrastructure and Technology<\/h3>\n<p>Ortiz believes that investing in infrastructure, such as roads and technology, is crucial for effective border security. He also emphasizes the need to continue building some sections of the border wall to enhance security measures.<\/p>\n<p>While President Donald Trump made wall construction a priority, his successor, Joe Biden, halted the construction but later resumed it in certain areas. The debate over the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/outgoing-border-patrol-chief-calls-for-more-wall-construction\/\" title=\"Border Patrol Chief urges increased wall construction.\">border wall remains<\/a> a contentious issue.<\/p>\n<h3>Bolstering Border Patrol&#8217;s Ranks<\/h3>\n<p>Ortiz highlights the importance of increasing personnel in the Border Patrol. He expresses concern over the significant decrease in staff since 2013 and emphasizes that this shortage hinders their ability to succeed in their mission.<\/p>\n<h3>Instilling Consequences to Deter Illegal Immigration<\/h3>\n<p>With migrants coming from 173 different countries, Ortiz stresses the need for consequences to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-admin-approving-99-of-illegals-seeking-title-42-exceptions\/\" title=\"Biden Admin Approving 99% of Illegals Seeking Title 42 Exceptions\">discourage illegal immigration<\/a>. He believes that without repercussions, repatriation becomes challenging, and the influx of migrants will continue to be a problem not only at the U.S.-Mexico border but also in other regions.<\/p>\n<h2>Title 42 and Retirement<\/h2>\n<p>Ortiz&#8217;s retirement marks the end of an era for the Border Patrol. His insights and experiences shed light on the complexities of border security and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ex-opensea-managers-trial-kicks-off-in-first-nft-insider-trading-case\/\" title=\"Former OpenSea manager faces trial in groundbreaking NFT insider trading case.
