Texas Proves How Inept Joe Biden Is, Takes Real Action to Deal With Border Crisis in Del Rio
We’ve been reporting on the massive illegal alien influx in Del Rio, Texas, that basically had been overrunning that area and was out of control. The CBP was unable to deal with it. There were reportedly over 14,000 people under the International Bridge, setting up shacks made from the surrounding branches and greenery.
The Biden Administration may have started this surge to some degree, by stopping deportation flights of Haitians after the earthquake in Haiti on August 14. Now, they have started them again. They also suggested they might ship some people to other processing areas that were not as overwhelmed.
But fortunately, the flow has finally stopped — while Joe Biden is off at the beach and Kamala Harris was flipping a coin at a college football game.
So, how did it happen? Not because of anything that Biden-Harris did.
The reason why, according to Fox’s Bill Melugin, is Gov. Greg Abbott and the Texas DPS. The Texas DPS came out in force, with hundreds of their troopers providing a physical deterrent and preventing people from coming in.
Here’s what it looked like yesterday morning:
But, here was what it looked like after Abbott surged the DPS to the area.BREAKING: I am absolutely stunned by what I’m witnessing right now. We are on a boat in the Rio Grande near the Del Rio international bridge and we are watching as masses of hundreds of migrants walk across the river from Mexico and stream into the US illegally. @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/xXE4pDkpIe

BREAKING: After @GregAbbott_TX surged @TxDPS troopers into Del Rio, it appears that illegal migrants crossings at the river have come to a halt for now. DPS tells me hundreds of their troopers are now there to provide security and a physical deterrent.

They have built a barricade with their squad cars and State Troopers.
The National Guard is working with them to secure the border.

The effort, called Operation Lonestar, is protecting Texas — and the U.S. — when the Biden Administration is failing to do so.I’m now on the U.S. side of the Rio Grande where thousands of migrants crossed illegally into Del Rio today. The migrants left piles of trash, and the area has now been secured with barbed wire by Texas DPS. The flow of migrants has stopped & DPS is here in force. @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/0oFzQXRALs

According to Melugin, the numbers which had been over 14,000 have reduced to over 12,000, because some of the people have been processed by the CBP. Also that they have restarted the flights to repatriate the single males back to Haiti, although they are going to allow the family units — women and/or children — to stay. Why only the males is not clear. Basically, the women and children are just going to be released into the country, with a notice to appear.DPS Troopers and @TexasGuard remain on the scene in Del Rio to monitor the #bordercrisis. Thanks to @GovAbbott’s leadership and support from the #txlege, #OperationLoneStar allows Texas to step up where the federal government has failed to #securetheborder. pic.twitter.com/BCdLSyREjz

NEW: U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz says there are currently 12,600 migrants under the bridge in Del Rio. Told me single adult men will be expelled via Title 42, but most family units will be processed and released into US w/ NTA (notice to appear). @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/JhaS3YB4pX

For the migrants who are being expelled, repatriation flights have already started. The Mayor of Del Rio says he knows of several flights that have flown out of San Antonio already.

Texas and Gov. Abbott stepped up here, basically because they had to in the face of the Biden Administration failing to do their job. But they shouldn’t have had to do this — protecting the border is the responsibility of the federal government. The CBP was doing all they could, but they couldn’t deal when they were completely overwhelmed — and Biden would have continued to leave the door open. Texas should send the bill for all their efforts to right to Joe Biden’s desk.
