Border Patrol Chief Carla Provost said she has reassigned hundreds of agents to process and started building temporary tent cities to house the flood of migrants.
We cannot address this crisis by simply shifting more resources or building more facilities," she said. "It's like holding a bucket under a faucet: it doesn't matter how many buckets you give me if we can't turn off the flow."
But she told members of the Senate that such temporary fixes aren't enough. They need to overhaul immigration laws and provide additional funding to her agency, she said, or risk losing control of the southern border.

My nephew is Border Patrol in the El Paso sector. He sent us a text yesterday apologizing for not keeping it touch. It's just that he's been so busy dealing with the mass migration.
Fact: we have a crisis on our hands and yet congressional Democrats are tone deaf. Instead, they want to create a manufactured "constitutional crisis" regarding Trump. That's good guv'ment.
You've got to change immigrants' expectations and they'll stop trying to take advantage of us. Until you do they'll keep coming.
I thank you and let's keep it real.
