I spoke with Rep Tony Gonzales tonight – he confirmed that it is a serious issue. They are being overwhelmed by unprecedented numbers – just hit an all-time high and still growing!

Am going to visit Eagle Pass later this week to see what’s going on for myself.

On the question of what update he could provide regarding the potential border visit by Elon Musk, Gonzales laughingly told Breitbart Texas “Can’t say anything, stay tuned!”

Breitbart did just that, and at about 5:30 on Thursday evening, Musk arrived and began his visit. It appeared several Texas sheriffs were invited to meet with Musk and Gonzales, who gathered under the international bridge where Border Patrol agents hold record numbers of migrants who cross and are awaiting transportation.
