The Border Patrol Union Castigates President Joe Biden for His Delayed and Inadequate Response to the Border Crisis
As President Joe Biden prepares for a belated visit to the beleaguered southwest border, the U.S. Border Patrol Union is denouncing his efforts as “too little, too late.” This criticism comes amid a surge of illegal immigration that has escalated into a significant issue under Biden’s administration, drawing the attention of an increasing majority of concerned Americans.
Biden’s scheduled visit coincides with former President Donald Trump’s planned trip to the border, highlighting the urgent need for effective immigration policies. Biden is set to visit Brownsville, Texas, a decision announced by the White House following reports of Trump’s impending border visit.
Under President Biden’s tenure, more than 7.2 million illegal immigrants have entered the U.S., a figure exceeding the population of 36 states, according to the Daily Wire. This unprecedented influx is attributed to Biden’s dismantling of Trump’s stringent immigration policies, which had significantly curbed illegal crossings. Border Patrol agents and Republicans argue that these policy reversals have directly led to the current chaos at the border.
Joe Biden is scheduled to visit the southern border in Brownsville on the same day that President Trump is set to make remarks at Eagle Pass, Texas.

Polling indicates that the vast majority of Americans are deeply dissatisfied with the situation at the border and hold Biden responsible for the crisis. This growing discontent poses a severe threat to Biden’s prospects for reelection, with his sudden visit to the border perceived as a desperate bid for damage control.
The Trump campaign has lambasted Biden’s planned visit as a disingenuous effort to mimic Trump’s commitment to border security. Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt criticized Biden for neglecting the border crisis for three years, accusing him of political opportunism rather than a genuine desire to address the issue.
Amidst this backdrop, Biden is expected to point fingers at Republicans for the border disorder, despite bipartisan opposition to a Senate bill that proposed allowing up to 5,000 migrants into the country daily. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer are at a stalemate, with Schumer refusing to consider a stringent immigration enforcement measure passed by the GOP-controlled House.
The Border Patrol’s union has expressed skepticism about Biden’s visit, questioning the purpose of such a gesture if Biden truly believes he has exhausted all options to secure the border. The union contends that any last-minute policy changes by Biden would be purely self-serving, aimed at salvaging his presidency rather than addressing the root causes of the border crisis.
In conclusion, the union emphasizes that border security should transcend political motivations, focusing instead on the safety and security of the United States and its citizens. Biden’s delayed response to the border crisis is seen not as a genuine attempt to solve the problem but as a political maneuver to rescue his faltering administration.
