Earlier: Border Patrol Agents Now Under Orders To Cut Barbed Wire, Bring In Illegal Aliens!
I remember talking to a Border Patrol Agent who had worked in California. He was trying to find a fleeing load vehicle that had fled another agent, so, he was driving at high speed with lights and siren going. A California Highway Patrol Officer got in behind him and chased him down. When he stopped, after an argument, the CHP Officer wrote him a ticket. The Agent was incensed and went to his Supervisor about fighting the ticket. They refused to go to bat for him and he wound up paying a fine. He left that station afterwards.
Few things have disgusted me more than seeing a Border Patrol Agent cutting through barbed wire to let illegal aliens in. Has that Agent no shame?
NEW: Video from source in Eagle Pass shows Border Patrol cutting through razor wire placed by the state of TX to allow migrants to enter & be processed after crossing illegally. @TxDPS tells me this is the first time they know of this happening, and that it’s being looked into… pic.twitter.com/jESPbzj9sw

Sure, he was ordered to do it, but he did it.
Frankly, I wish the Texas DPS had written that Agent at least a ticket, if not arresting him for destruction of state government property. For that matter, he should be charged federally with 8 USC 1324 “Bringing in and harboring certain aliens,” but we all know that will never happen.
Back during the Trump administration when things had become really bad in 2019, I suggested that the Border Patrol Union should call a strike. It wasn’t like we were doing anything to stop the invasion anyway. It was explained to me that it is against the law for the Border Patrol to go on strike and that if we did, then remember what happened to the Air Traffic Controllers who went on strike back in 1981.
Nevertheless, I believe if a confrontation should occur between Texas DPS and the criminal use of the Border Patrol that the Border Patrol would back down.
Often in my career, I can remember getting into confrontations with civilians and resident aliens. I had to ask myself, if I got into a serious confrontation with a member of the public, would my supervisor back me? Often, my end conclusion was no, they wouldn’t. The INS was regarded as one of the most poorly run government agencies in the whole federal government and Homeland Security does not seem to be run any better.
In the movie Flashpoint, starring Kris Kristofferson and Treat Williams, the two main characters find a vehicle with two women stuck in the desert. They have the following exchange:
Lady: “Now you’re here, now what are you going to do? Sell us tickets to the policemen’s ball?”
Kris Kristofferson (playing a BP Agent): “We’re the Border Patrol ma’am. We don’t have any balls.” [Watch it at 12:33 here.]

Supposedly, this was a dig against the Border Patrol management, who had initially supported the movie, but then backed out because Kris refused to shave his beard. (BP grooming standards allow beards now, but not in 1984!)
