So to summarize: the OP lied about Brietbart being caught in a lie.

Don't those people write enough questionable stuff that it's not necessary to lie about their journalistic ethics?

FWIW I tried to edit the thread title, but apparently that is not an option.

As I said, anyone can come through the border, this could be true. 40 Egyptian or 400 or 4,000 Egyptians or Iraqis could come through.

The Wall is the answer. End the question as to who is coming in whether it be illegal alien coming to commit additional crimes in addition to having committed a crime entering the US without authorization, have anchor babies to support the family or terrorists. Whatever is coming in illegally needs to be stopped.
Thirty foot wall @ 22 billion taxpayer dollars, breachable by a $400 32 foot ladder from Amazon.

Dear leader lied to you.

If those illegals had $400 they wouldn't be trying to scale the wall. And the drop from 32' is bound to break a bone or two. So when you trip the sensors climbing over the wall it'll give the Border Patrol plenty of time to get there and scoop you up. Cause you can't run far on two broken legs.

All you need is a guy with ladder on the other side, but I'm not going to spend my time arguing about it.

This afternoon I sent an email to U.S. Customs and Border Protection seeking confirmation of this report. I got this contact from their official website:

Rob Daniels
CBP Public Affairs Specialist
4740 N. Oracle Road Suite 310
Tucson, AZ. 85705
520-407-2389 office
520-904-2510 cellular
520-407-2352 fax
rob.daniels@dhs.gov

Here is what I wrote:

Good afternoon,

I am writing to inquire about an incident that was widely reported in the media on February 6, 2017. Can you confirm or deny it please?

"U.S. Border Patrol agents from Lordsburg Station apprehended two individuals, one Iraqi national and the other from Egypt, while on patrol Saturday at 2:15 p.m. local time along Arizona State Route 80"

This is allegedly a direct quote from your agency.

I saw no mention of this incident on your website under "Media Releases." Was I looking in the wrong place?

Thank you.



He emailed me back within 15 minutes. Here was his response:

This is the second time I have been asked about this. I do not know anything about it. Rob


"widely reported" Yet you only list breitbart????

Uh; those trespassers would have a BIG problem if the National Guard started patrolling that wall and were ordered to use ANY means necessary to stop them.

A great mission for our Veterans returning back from rotation. As a former Florida Guardsman we worked well with Local law enforcement and the Feds.
