A new video has been released by Border Patrol officers that should be alarming to every American.
In the video, more than 100 immigrants can be seen walking around an unfinished portion of the border wall to enter our country illegally.
More from Central America
According to border officials, the group was largely from Central America…

Another month gone by, and yet another record broken for border apprehensions.
Acting CBP commissioner John Sanders stated, “We are in full-blown emergency.”
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) also commented on the matter, stating, “Border Patrol Agents support the construction of border barriers because it makes their jobs less dangerous and reduces illegal immigration.
“In the CBP Arizona video, more than 100 migrants crossed into the United States with ease due to there not being a fortified barrier.
“A barrier there might not have stopped all of them, but it would have certainly deterred their attempt to enter the U.S. illegally.”
Dems Still Fighting Reform
Last week, President Trump took it upon himself to address the issue of so many migrants from Central America using Mexico as a gateway to enter our country.
The President’s threat to squeeze their economy with tariffs worked, as Mexico quickly came to the table to reach a deal with Trump to step up its efforts to help reduce illegal immigration at our southern border.
Democrats, however, attacked Trump for overstepping his bounds on an issue they felt was under their responsibilities.
Most Americans, however, have sided with Trump, as social media has been blowing up with congratulations to the President in getting something done that Congress has not been able to fix for decades.
The agreement still has to be voted on by the Mexican legislature before being put into action, but President Trump said he does not see any problems with the deal passing.
If it does fail, however, he stated the administration is fully prepared to move forward with the plan for escalating tariffs to be put in place against Mexico.
