Obama's Border Patrol chief: Agents arrest 'rapists, murderers, gang members every single day.'
The Obama appointee who oversaw U.S. Border Patrol in 2016 made a rare public comment Thursday that those illegally entering the U.S. from Mexico have previously committed heinous crimes.
Mark Morgan has remained out of the public spotlight over the past two years, but broke his silence this week
Morgan said agents are "apprehending and interdicting pedophiles, rapists, murderers, gang members every single day."
"I'm outraged that we haven't fixed this problem. I'm outraged," Morgan said. "Who can say that this is a manufactured crisis? I don't care who it is — anyone that says this is a manufactured crisis, they are absolutely lying to the American people."
Morgan, a former FBI agent, was appointed in August 2016 to oversee the patrol.
In fiscal 2018, more than 360,000 people were arrested for illegally entering the United States.

Kamala Harris: Government shutdown 'will not end with a wall'
Sen. Kamala Harris insisted Thursday that the ongoing government shutdown, now in its 20th day, "will not end with a wall," ruling out the border security measure that President Donald Trump has demanded as a prerequisite for his signature on any government funding legislation.
Harris (D-Calif.) appeared on CBS’s “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on Thursday to promote her new book, where the host asked the California senator — who said she “might” run for president — how she sees the partial shutdown ending in light of negotiations being at a stalemate.
“How does it end? It has to end with the government running and functioning. It has to end with us setting back up the government — it will not with a wall. It will not end with a wall,” Harris told Colbert.
The White House and congressional Democrats have remained at an impasse since before Christmas over President Donald Trump’s demands for $5.7 billion to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, driving a quarter of the federal government into a shutdown that is poised to become the longest in U.S. history if it extends past Friday. Over half a million federal employees will miss their first paychecks Friday due to the shutdown, which Harris said was already taking a toll.

Morgan was forced out after 7 months on the job.
The union was incensed when Morgan told a Senate hearing Dec. 1, in response to a question from Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., that he supported a comprehensive immigration overhaul, which is often interpreted to include a path to citizenship for people who are in the country illegally. Morgan clarified his remarks in a note to Border Patrol staff the following week.
“I want to be clear what my position is regarding immigration reform,” Morgan wrote. “I do not, as some have suggested, support what is often referred to as ‘blanket amnesty.’ This assertion could not be further from my position. I encourage everyone to listen to my testimony.”
Despite pressure from the union, many agency officials said Morgan appeared to embrace the job. Less than a week ago, the first message on his new Twitter account read, “Chief Morgan here -- excited to use this account to share the latest news and events of the #BorderPatrol with followers.”

A “mass overdose” in a sanctuary state home has left one person dead and another 12 hospitalized after police say the victims ingested fentanyl, a powerful opioid.
Chief Michael O’Brien said that police received a 911 call from someone inside the residence of a home in the 1100 block of Santana Court about 9 a.m.
“Upon arrival, police officers found multiple individuals in what appeared to be life-threatening overdose conditions.”
Officers performed CPR and administered six doses of naloxone, which can reverse the effects of an overdose and comes in half-doses. Sanctuary state police have been equipped with naloxone since 2018.
