Former acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf joins ‘Fox & Friends Weekend’ to discuss the Biden administration’s controversial handling of the border crisis. The U.S. Border Patrol’s Tucson Sector said Sunday it is pausing social media as the agency deals with a surge of migrants at the border. Chief Patrol Agent John R. Modlin said all Tucson Sector Border Patrol social media accounts will be paused “until further notice” in light of the ongoing migration surge. The Tucson Sector has been overwhelmed by a surge of migrants in the past week.
According to Bill Melugin, the pause in social media activity comes after the sector reported a record-breaking 15,300 illegal crossings last week. This unprecedented number highlights the severity of the border crisis. Additionally, the week saw significant incidents, including the seizure of 117 lbs. of fentanyl, 78 federal criminal cases, 17 rescues, 14 human smuggling events, and three narcotics events.
Critics argue that the decision to pause social media accounts reflects a lack of transparency and communication with the public. The photos and data provided by these accounts are valuable in understanding the situation at the border. With the border crisis escalating, cutting off communication channels is seen as a troubling move.
The Tucson Sector is consistently overwhelmed, with an average of 2,000 to 2,500 illegal crossings per day. This influx of migrants comes from various parts of the world, including Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been contacted for a response regarding the pause in social media activity.
The border crisis has become a significant concern, with the Biden administration facing criticism for its handling of the situation. Former acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf’s appearance on ‘Fox & Friends Weekend’ highlights the ongoing debate surrounding the administration’s policies.
