Biden and Harris should both be in jail for failing to control the
border. Dead illegal aliens are on their heads.

Three migrants drowned in the Rio Grande, near the Eagle Pass park that
Texas troopers have taken control over, U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar,
D-Laredo, said in a written statement on Saturday.

State officers and National Guard members have been denying U.S. Border
Patrol agents entry to the 47-acre Shelby Park. Border Patrol agents
learned Friday evening six migrants were in distress. Cuellar said that
Border Patrol made multiple attempts to relay the information to state
agents, first unsuccessfully via telephone and again verbally at the
park’s entrance gate.

“Texas Military Department soldiers stated they would not grant (Border
Patrol) access to the migrants – even in the event of an emergency – and
that they would send a soldier to investigate the situation,” Cuellar
said in the statement on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The bodies of the three migrants, a female adult and two children, were recovered by Mexican authorities on Saturday morning, Cuellar said.
Officials have not yet released the names or any other information on
the deceased.

U.S. Custom and Border Protection did not immediately confirm the death
of the migrants.

“This is a tragedy, and the state bears responsibility,” Cuellar, a
ranking member of the House Homeland Security Appropriations
Subcommittee, wrote.

Starting on Wednesday night, the Texas Department of Public Safety
erected concertina wire and fencing at Shelby Park to close off access
to the public, said Eagle Pass Mayor Rolando Salinas earlier this week.
The move from the state was against the wishes of city officials.

Border Patrol agents had routinely used the park to patrol the border,
used a boat ramp to launch their boats and a staging area to inspect
migrants who have been apprehended, according to a court filing from the
U.S. Department of Justice.

Cuellar is a traitor and should be kicked out of congress.
