Two sex offenders arrested in two days for Del Rio Sector. The two Mexican nationals had convictions for sexual assault with a child and indecency with a child. These arrests are CLEAR examples of what border security means for the American people.

The massive increase in migrant apprehensions in the last five weeks moved the Del Rio Sector to the busiest of the nine southwest Border Patrol sectors, according to a source operating under the umbrella of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Chief Owens stated some stations within the sector are experiencing increases of 350 percent over the same period in 2021, Breitbart Texas reported.

During a recent border tour, Breitbart Texas captured exclusive video of a steady flow of mostly Venezuelan migrants crossing at a single crossing point in Eagle Pass, Texas. Within about two hours, approximately 50 migrants crossed at this one location.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott ordered more than 10,000 Texas National Guard soldiers and airmen to support the Border Patrol under Operation Lone Star. The deployment led to approximately 105,000 encounters by National Guard service members with migrants and the seizure of significant quantities of drugs and weapons, Breitbart reported.

“The work each of our service members is doing is very important,” Texas Adjunct General Maj. Gen. Tracy Norris told Breitbart Texas. “Their presence along the border creates a significant deterrence to criminal activity along our southern border.”

“Whether serving at a security point, constructing a barrier, or providing logistic and administrative support, each of our Soldiers and Airmen is critical to the broader effort to bring safety to our local communities,” General Norris stated.

All our States need to round them up and deport them back to Mexico ourselves!



Article IV, Section 4 of our Constitution provides, "The United States shall guarantee to every State in the Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence." No state can have a republican form of government necessary to provide for the health, welfare, or security of its citizens if it is subject to the continual massive trespass of invaders sanctioned by the federal government. Can a writ of mandamus be issued by a US District Court to the Secretary of the Homeland Security Department to get him to enforce our immigration laws? (See, e.g.Cheneyv. United States Dist.
