Biden’s Own Border Chief Blows Whistle on Joe – He Just Told Lawmakers Border Patrol Does Not Have “Operational Control”

What’s Happening:

I know talking about the border, at this point, makes us sound like a broken record. But the fact remains, Joe Biden has refused to protect one of our most vulnerable points of entry. The Southern border hasn’t been properly enforced since January 2021. How much damage do you think Biden’s open border has done to the country since then?

Well, the situation is much worse than what the media is willing to admit. Biden “visited” the border and has since brushed it off. His “border czar” Harris is busy doing nothing at all. But the chief of the U.S. Border Patrol tells a different story. And he is sounding the alarm, big time.

From Just the News:

U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz told lawmakers on Wednesday that the U.S. border patrol doesn’t have operational control of the border.

… the formal definition of operational control, according to U.S. law, is “the prevention of all unlawful entries into the United States, including entries by terrorists, other unlawful aliens, instruments of terrorism, narcotics and other contraband.” […]

When asked directly if the U.S. had operational control of the entire U.S.-Mexico border, Ortiz replied, “No, sir.”

The head of Border Patrol, Raul Ortiz, admitted to a Homeland Security Committee field hearing that the U.S. government does not have “operational control” of the U.S.-Mexico border. Operational control is defined as preventing “unlawful entries” into the country, including entries by terrorists, unlawful aliens, and “instruments” of terrorism, narcotics, and contraband.

Meaning, the United States is not preventing terrorists and drug pushers from entering the country. Also, we are not stopping “unlawful aliens” from entering the country. That’s what Ortiz admitted during this hearing.

He tried to soften his claims by saying Border Patrol isn’t trying to achieve “operational control.” Only “mission advantage.” Oh, that’s great. Instead of trying to prevent criminals from flooding our country, Border Patrol only wants a “mission advantage.” Which could mean nothing.

The Border Patrol has long been staffed by tireless patriots who fight to keep us safe. But thanks to Biden, it has become just as weak and politicized as the DOJ and DHS. The leaders of this law enforcement group are unable to prevent illegals from entering the country. They can’t even “repatriate” illegals, which is another way of saying deporting their asses.

We can’t say if Ortiz cares about the border. His hands might be tied. But we do know where the buck stops at this failure, Joe Biden. He and his corrupt administration have willfully let the border get out of control.

And it won’t stop until he’s out of office.

Key Takeaways:

  • The head of Border Patrol admitted the U.S. does not have “operational control” of the border.
  • This means the government is not able to stop illegals and criminals from entering.
  • This comes as Biden totally neglects the border, allowing millions to enter illegally.
