DEL RIO, Texas — Texas National Guardsmen encountered approximately 105,000 migrants under Operation Lone Star. The soldiers and airmen also participated in “significant drug and weapons seizures.”

“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.”

The general’s comments to Breitbart followed a tour of Texas National Guard facilities and checkpoints in the Border Patrol’s Del Rio Sector.

“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.

Breitbart Texas spoke with numerous soldiers and officers of the Texas National Guard during tours in Del Rio and Eagle Pass this week. The guardsmen repeatedly expressed their dedication to the mission.

“Our soldiers are making an impact,” one officer stated. “Even when they are not seeing illegal border crossings, they are having a deterrent effect and are moving the crossers to other locations where Border Patrol agents are present.”

General Norris offered the following:

Because of our service members’ outstanding work:

• Approximately, 105,000 illegal migrants have been apprehended or referred to our partner federal and state law enforcement agencies;
• More than 9,000 individuals, attempting to enter Texas illegally, have been returned to Mexico;
• Significant drug and weapon seizures have occurred, including the lethal drug fentanyl;
• And the ongoing construction of temporary barriers, including 10 miles of temporary barriers, with an additional 60 miles under construction contract, along the border is further deterring criminal activity.

Breitbart observed the progress of nearly two miles of border wall in the Eagle Pass area of operations. This is in addition to the rapid construction of miles of fencing designed to slow or deter migrants from crossing through the private property of landowners along the border.

“The impact of their work is incredible,” the Texas Military Department’s Adjunct General stated. “The latest reports indicate those who may be seeking illegal entry into the United States are now avoiding Texas border cities and redirecting their march toward other locations.”

In addition to apprehending migrants or referring them to other law enforcement agencies, the guardsmen are also saving lives along the border. One example occurred earlier this week when two guardsmen at a security checkpoint near Eagle Pass rescued a family of migrants who were drowning after getting caught in the swift currents of the Rio Grande, Breitbart reported.

“On January 31. 2022, around 5:50 am, a family of nine undocumented migrants, including several small children, attempted to cross the Rio Grande river on foot, near Eagle Pass, Texas,” Norris reported. “The family got caught in the current and began to drown. Upon seeing the family, two Texas National Guardsmen and a partner law enforcement officer immediately responded, risking their own lives, going into the river and successfully saving each person, bringing them ashore safely.”

These rescues occur on a regular basis with at least five other rescues in the past four months — just in Eagle Pass, she noted.

“I am so proud of each of our service members supporting Operation Lone Star,” General Norris concluded. “Regardless of their specific assignment within this mission, each of these Texas service members is making a tremendous impact on the safety and security of our state.”

Biden Helps Illegal Alien, Accused of Killing Teen Girl, Evade Deportation

President Joe Biden’s so-called “sanctuary country” orders are helping an illegal alien, accused of killing a 19-year-old girl in Texas, evade deportation from the United States.

In November 2020, 19-year-old Adrienne Sophia Exum was allegedly hit and killed by Heriberto Fuerte-Padilla, an illegal alien from Mexico, in Harris County, Texas. According to police, Padilla was driving drunk at the time and was subsequently charged with fleeing the scene of the crash and drunk driving.

Stephen Dinan with the Washington Times now reports that Biden’s sanctuary country orders — where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are banned from arresting and deporting illegal aliens unless they meet narrow thresholds of criminality — are helping Padilla evade deportation from the U.S.

Dinan reports:

The Homeland Security Department initially said it wanted authorities to pick him up and deport him once Texas punished him, but then it changed its mind. Under rules issued in September by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Fuerte-Padilla doesn’t qualify as a priority anymore. [Emphasis added]

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement also told Texas that it was canceling deportation requests — known as “detainers” — on other illegal immigrants, including some who pleaded guilty to felony charges of evading arrest or had convictions for drunken driving, drug possession or domestic assault injuring a family member. [Emphasis added]

Likewise, Biden is also helping illegal aliens Jose Godoy Vasquez of Guatemala and Nay Thar of Thailand evade deportation.

Vasquez has been convicted of drunk driving, domestic violence, and drug possession while Thar has convictions for drunk driving, drug possession, fleeing police, and secretly getting contraband into prison.

The revelations come as Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas bragged to elected officials that Biden’s sanctuary country orders are shielding most illegal aliens in the U.S. from arrest and deportation.

“Unlawful presence in the United States, alone, will not be a basis for immigration enforcement action … it is a matter of justice and equity as well,” Mayorkas said.

Throughout the last year, the orders successfully freed into the U.S. illegal aliens accused and convicted of child sex crimes, armed robbery, drunk driving, burglary, cocaine trafficking, grand theft auto, heroin trafficking, credit card fraud, money laundering, and other crimes.

As Breitbart News reported, DHS has failed to make public their annual report that details the number of illegal aliens arrested and deported by ICE agents throughout the prior 12 months. Former ICE officials have suggested that the agency is diligently trying to manipulate the data to make it harder to compare to past years of interior enforcement.

DHS Mayorkas Welcomes Illegal Migrant Survivor from Boat Disaster

The nation’s pro-migration border chief is rewarding the sole survivor of a deadly migrant boat disaster with an offer to let him stay in the United States while he asks for asylum, according to the Washington Post.

Roughly 40 other migrants on the boat — including an infant and the sister of the survivor — drowned when the motor stalled and the boat flooded off the Florida coast.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is not sending the surviving migrant home, so he “is sending the same [worldwide] message his boss has been sending since January 20 of last year, which is: You have a good chance of getting into the U.S., so it’s worth taking the risk,” said Mark Krikorian, director of the Center for Immigration Studies.

Hundreds of economic migrants — perhaps thousands — are dying in deserts, jungles, at sea, and in blizzards, as they try to reach the border welcome now offered by pro-migration Mayorkas, President Joe Biden, and their coalition of pro-migration progressives.

The migrants are dying because “the opponents of borders among the left and among libertarians are prioritizing the admission of the maximum number of immigrants over their safety,” said Krikorian. He added:

They see tragedies like this as a price they’re willing to pay. Stalin said you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet, and the left and the libertarians and Mayorkas are willing to see these kinds of tragedies — even though they don’t like them any more than anyone else does — if the [policy] alternative is fewer people being able to come to the United States.

“The opponents of tight enforcement need to be called out for incentivizing tragedies like this,” Krikorian said.

Since October, GOP legislators have been calling for the House to impeach Mayorkas before the 2022 midterm election.

The Post’s article described the calculated decision by the surviving migrant — Juan Estaban — and his drowned sister to participate in a  conspiracy to sneak through Mayorkas’s partly-open border:

[His sister] María Camila wasn’t one to take risks, her brother said. Quiet but charismatic, she was studying industrial engineering and “liked to do things right.” Juan Esteban helped his grandfather, who grew corn for a living, while finishing a degree in business. Still, they longed for three things they couldn’t find in Colombia: to better their lives, their safety and their mother.

The college-educated siblings flew to the Bahamas from their quiet town of Guarcari in Columbia. They took a small boat to the Western end of the island chain, according to the Post’s report:

The second ship, departing from one of the westernmost isles of the Bahamas, felt riskier from the start. Despite being promised a boat that would not be overloaded, Juan Esteban said, there were at least 35 people aboard the ship. Among them: men and women from Haiti, Jamaica, the Bahamas. Only the ones from the Dominican Republic spoke Spanish. One woman carried a baby girl. The organizers did not provide life vests.

“That seemed bad to me,” Juan Esteban said, his skin darkened by days under the sun. “But I had such a desire to get to the country.”

The engine failed, and the boat foundered in rough seas, the Post reported:

About 15 people initially survived, [Estaban] said, and for a time they all held on to the overturned boat, finding it warmer to stay in the water than on the hull, where they were exposed to cold air. Two of the smugglers — both wearing life vests — were picked up by another boat, Juan Esteban’s attorney said. They promised to come back but never did.

The administration is encouraging poor economic migrants to risk their lives because it will not enforce the nation’s popular and effective border laws, said Krikorian. “It is not just Mayorkas who bears some responsibility here, it is also progressive and libertarian opponents of border enforcement who share responsibility for these tragedies.”

The Wall Street Journal reported on September 2021 about one death among many in the Central American jungle:

Mr. Saintime said he walked ahead to see if he could round up food for his sister, who was getting dizzy and falling behind. Later, at a migrant camp in Panama, a travel companion told him that Jenny fainted and stopped breathing. She had to be left behind, the companion said.

“I don’t know how I’m going to tell my dad that my sister is dead,” said Mr. Saintime, sitting in an indigenous hamlet in Panama. He planned to continue his journey.

Despite the two Columbian migrants’ deliberate, unpressured, clear-eyed decision to participate in the smuggling crime, Mayorkas is allowing the surviving migrant to live in the United States.

The Post reported, “Immigration officials decided not to detain him, allowing him to join his mother in the United States while he seeks political asylum.”

The mother is an illegal migrant living in Florida. She knew about the crime, according to a January 28 report by the Washington Post: “At some point during their voyage by sea, the siblings texted their mother to tell her they were on their way, the family’s lawyer said.”

When the rescued migrant was sent to a Florida hospital, his extended family lobbied for his release into the United States, according to the Post:

“It is not fair that he is detained, with everything he went through, after experiencing the trauma of seeing people die, and enduring what he did for days, the sun, the hunger,” their cousin, Valeria Molina, said. “We are begging authorities to release him and help us find Camila.”

…

Naimeh Salem, Juan Esteban Montoya’s attorney, said Friday that her client will likely be transferred to a detention center as soon as Monday. She said she plans to ask authorities to grant him humanitarian parole, which would allow him to be released to his mother until his case is resolved. U.S. authorities have not yet said whether he will be allowed to stay in the United States; most migrants caught at sea are returned to their country of origin or embarkation.

Any criticism of the deaths caused by Biden’s loose border policies should be part of a larger debate about the civic and economic costs of migration, Krikorian said:

If all you’re complaining about is human trafficking and smuggling deaths, you leave yourself open to the obvious rejoinder that “Okay, well let everybody come in and they won’t have to risk their lives!”

It is the same thing when complaining about illegal immigration. For example, when people are saying “What part of illegal don’t you understand?” it is perfectly logical for the other side to say, “You know, you’re right! That’s why it should all be legal!” … These tragedies should be part of that broader debate about immigration.

Migration moves money, and since at least 1990, the federal government has tried to extract people from poor countries so they can serve U.S. investors as cheap workers, government-aided consumers, and high-density renters in the U.S. economy.

That extraction-migration strategy has no stopping point, and it is harmful to ordinary white-collar and blue-collar Americans. It cuts their career opportunities and wages while raising their housing costs.

The strategy also curbs Americans’ productivity, shrinks their political clout, and widens the regional wealth gaps between the Democrats’ urban and coastal districts and the Republicans’ heartland states.

The economic policy radicalizes Americans’ democratic, compromise-promoting civic culture and allows wealthy elites to ignore despairing Americans at the bottom of society.

Unsurprisingly, a wide variety of little-publicized polls show deep and broad opposition to labor migration and the inflow of temporary contract workers into jobs sought by young U.S. graduates.

The opposition is growing, anti-establishment, widespread, multiracial, cross-sex, non-racist, class-based, bipartisan, rational, persistent, and recognizes the solidarity that Americans owe to each other.

DoD: Biden 'Unilaterally' Moving U.S. Troops to Eastern Europe; 'Trainers on the Ground' in Ukraine

(CNSNews.com) - Pentagon spokesman John Kirby on Monday clarified President Biden's comment on Friday evening, when Biden said, "I'll be moving U.S. troops to Eastern Europe and the NATO countries in the near term — not a lot."

Kirby said President Biden was not talking about U.S. troops that would fall under NATO: "NATO has to vote on activation of the response force. I mean, that's something that would have to come from the alliance itself, and that hasn't occurred."

Kirby said Biden was talking about a unilateral deployment "in close consultation with the actual allies themselves.

“I mean, you can't just unilaterally decide to throw extra U.S. forces at a country. You want to make sure that they're on board with it, and that you've had the appropriate conversations. And what I would tell you is that those sorts of conversations are ongoing," Kirby said.

“And, you know, I'll leave it at -- there. I leave it at that. I don't, again, have a timeline to give you. I certainly don't have any specifics with respect to a redeployment inside Europe to talk to in any great detail. But it is very much an active discussion here at the Pentagon. It certainly is an active discussion that we're having with our national security council counterparts..."

A reporter asked for clarification: "So what President Biden was talking about then is a unilateral deployment to NATO ally, countries around Ukraine? Right, that's what you're saying?"

"Yes," Kirby responded.

The Russian military buildup around Ukraine has "definitely got many of our NATO allies concerned, particularly those allies that border or very close to bordering Russia," Kirby said:

And so, we want to make sure that our NATO allies understand we take seriously our commitments to them. And so, if they desire, if they want additional capabilities, particularly in those Eastern Flank countries, to bolster their own self-defense, then we want to have that conversation with them, and we want to be willing to provide that for them.

That's the unilateral movements, and it is really designed to ensure NATO solidarity, and quite frankly, to help bolster the capabilities of our allies.

Second and distinct from that, of course, is the NATO Response Force. And this is a 40,000-troops strong response force that only NATO. the alliance. can activate. We have obligations inside that just like other countries inside the alliance. We signed up for a certain amount of contribution to that. It is not something that is just off the shelf, and you just go grab it. So, you want to make it as short a tether as possible.

And that's why we've alerted those extra 8,500 troops here in the States. They have not been given deployment orders. They've just been told to be ready on a shorter period of time, in case the alliance activates that. And as for Ukraine, you're right. The principal threat right now, at least from a military perspective is from Russia on Ukraine, and to Ukrainian soil.

Which is why we continue to provide security assistance material to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Another shipment just arrived on Friday, there'll be more coming in coming days, and why we still have trainers on the ground. Not just us, the Brits do, the Canadians do, trainers on the ground, to help improve the competence and the confidence of Ukrainian Armed Forces.

So, it's really a multi-tiered approach here. But the president has been very clear, we're not going to see American troops on the ground in combat with the Russians in Ukraine. He has made clear that that's not on the table. So, what we're focused on is the very real security commitments that we have, you mentioned under Article Five, specifically to our NATO allies.

Should Mr. Putin decide to make or to exhibit threats against the alliance, we want to make sure that he understands unequivocally that that's not going to be acceptable, and the United States will fight to defend our NATO allies and our commitments to our allies on the continent. But look, again, and pardon me for going on. But it was a very good question.

We don't think it has to come to conflict. There still we still believe there's time and space for diplomacy...

On January 25, Biden told reporters: "We have no intention of putting American forces or NATO forces in Ukraine."

Three days later, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley said the U.S. has already sent U.S. military "advisers and trainers" to Ukraine:

"There is a small contingent of US and NATO advisers and trainers currently in Ukraine," Milley said. "The United States has zero offensive combat weapons systems, nor any permanent forces, nor bases in Ukraine.

"Our role is limited in that we help train, advise and assist with tactics, techniques and procedures. We participate in institutional development of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense."
