TX state troopers use cars to form US-Mexico border wall after 12,000+ illegal immigrants walk through https://americanmilitarynews.com/202...-walk-through/
Despite the administration’s tough language, they are still releasing some families into the United States’ interior with notices to appear at asylum hearings — which often go unanswered.
Texas State Rep. Jacey Jetton tweeted video of the chaos under the international bridge, that one Fox News reporter described as conditions similar to a “third world refugee camp.” Jetton noted that deportation flights would begin on Sunday.
Also on Sunday, former President Donald Trump blasted the situation as “not just a border crisis” but a “crisis crisis.”
“The largest number of illegal aliens in the history of our Country are pouring in by the millions. They are totally unchecked and unvetted, can do whatever they want, and go wherever they want. Our Country is rapidly becoming a cesspool of humanity,” Trump wrote in an email to American Military News. “Murderers, drug dealers, and criminals of all shapes and sizes are a big part of this massive migration. Tens of thousands of people are coming from Haiti, and many now from countries in Africa, even more so now than South America. Nothing is done and the corrupt Mainstream Media is giving almost no attention to what will be perhaps the greatest Crisis in the history of our Country.”
According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection statistics, over 1.5 million illegal immigrants have been arrested at the United States-Mexico border so far this year. Over 200,000 illegal immigrants were arrested in August alone, a staggering jump from the same period last year when just over 50,000 were apprehended.

The White House on Monday criticized the use of horse reins to threaten Haitian migrants after images circulated of a U.S. border guard on horseback charging at migrants near a riverside camp in Texas.
The mostly Haitian migrants in recent days have been crossing back and forth between Ciudad Acuna in Mexico and the sprawling camp across the border in Del Rio to buy food and water, which was in short supply on the U.S. side.
Reuters witnesses saw mounted officers wearing cowboy hats blocking the paths of migrants, and one officer unfurling a cord resembling a lariat, which he swung near a migrant's face.
A video showing a border guard apparently threatening migrants with the cords was shared on social media.
"I don't think anyone seeing that footage would think it was acceptable or appropriate," White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters.
"I don't have the full context. I can't imagine what context would make that appropriate," she added.
Some on social media commented that the image of fleeing Black men chased by white officers on horseback had echoes of the historical injustices suffered by Black people in the United States.
