Despite the angry rhetoric from the White House, senior administration officials told Fox News that the investigation should produce little more than a suspension of a few days with pay for the agents \u2013 and should be a \u2018non-issue,\u2019\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/border-patrol-agents-biden-pay-minimal-punishment-officials-say\">Fox News<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>The official went on to tell the outlet that the Border Patrol agents involved \u201cdid their job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYelling at people is not a crime,\u201d the official said. He added that the National Border Patrol Council, the union responsible for representing about 18,000 Border Patrol agents, has provided lawyers for the agents involved.<\/p>\n<p>Biden ripped a group of mounted Border Patrol agents last week who responded to a flood of illegal Haitian migrants surging across the border near Del Rio, Texas. The president promised consequences for the agents after unsupported reports of agents whipping migrants began to circulate. The reported \u201cwhips\u201d were later identified as reins and Border Patrol officials said that agents sometimes swing the reins to fend off migrants attempting to grab at their horses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo see people treated like they did? Horses running them over? People being strapped? It\u2019s outrageous,\u201d Biden said on Friday. \u201cI promise you those people will pay. There will be consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s dangerous, it\u2019s wrong. It sends the wrong message around the world, it sends the wrong message at home. It\u2019s simply not who we are,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Border Patrol agents <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/report-border-patrol-agents-furious-with-bidens-promise-to-make-them-pay-he-just-started-a-war\">reacted<\/a> furiously to Biden\u2019s comments. Several ripped the president while speaking to the media anonymously.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWould you go to work and do your best knowing that if you do your boss is going to \u2018make you pay?\u2019\u201d one agent said. \u201cI\u2019m dumbfounded and don\u2019t know what to say.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs the president threatening to throw us in prison?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n<p>Another agent said, \u201cI see the administration wants to fry our agents. He just started a war with Border Patrol.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/governor-abbott-if-biden-punishes-border-patrol-agents-i-will-hire-them-to-defend-texas-border\">promised<\/a> to hire the Border Patrol agents to work for the state of Texas should they be fired or quit over the incident.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat the President said going after the Border Patrol, who were risking their lives and working so hard to try to secure the border if he takes any action against them whatsoever, I have worked side by side with those Border Patrol agents,\u201d Abbott said on Sunday. \u201cI want them to know something, if they are at risk of losing their job, got a president who is abandoning his duty to secure the border, you have a job in the state of Texas. I will hire you to help Texas secure our border.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
