Texas law enforcement continues battling the Biden administration’s open-border chaos as brave DPS troopers risk their lives stopping criminal smugglers. Just this week, a human trafficker led police on a fiery high-speed chase before plunging his vehicle into the Rio Grande – a desperate stunt highlighting the lawlessness fueled by weak federal policies. While two illegal migrants escaped back to Mexico, five others were captured alongside the smuggler, who had to be rescued from drowning by the same officers he tried to flee.
Human smuggling operations have exploded under Biden’s catch-and-release schemes, turning Texas highways into battlegrounds. Criminals exploit our generosity, endangering innocent drivers and burdening communities with unchecked illegal immigration. This latest chase mirrors a March incident where a repeat offender illegal alien crashed into civilian vehicles while smuggling four migrants – part of a growing pattern of violence.
Governor Abbott’s border security efforts remain the last line of defense against this invasion. State forces recently captured a Honduran gang member on Texas’ Most Wanted list – a twice-deported criminal freed by liberal bail policies who went on to commit deadly conduct. Through Operation Lone Star, Texas has arrested over 40 violent Tren de Aragua gang members since designating them as foreign terrorists.
While Democrats mock border walls, real Texans face the consequences of unvetted migrants. A 14-year-old smuggler led troopers on a 100mph chase last summer with seven illegals in his car – proof that cartels recruit children while Biden’s handlers look the other way. Every caught smuggler reveals dozens who slip through, bringing drugs, violence, and disease into our neighborhoods.
The Rio Grande has become a lawless zone where criminals test our resolve. This week’s river jump attempt shows smugglers know they can gamble with American lives without real consequences. Previous cases prove even convicted child traffickers get slaps on the wrist – like the Laredo woman caught smuggling a three-year-old who’ll likely walk free again.
Patriotic Texans demand more than press releases from Washington bureaucrats. While Biden’s DOJ brags about 205 illegal entry cases, that’s a drop in the ocean compared to the millions flooding our state. Real security requires deporting every criminal alien, completing the border wall, and letting troopers do their jobs without D.C. lawyers sabotaging arrests.
Heroic DPS actions are making progress despite federal obstruction. Arrests of convicted felons like Anderson Ronaldo Reyes Giron – a Honduran gangbanger who assaulted officers – show Texas won’t back down. Through K-9 units and air patrols, our troopers seized four more illegals hiding in brush last month, proving constant vigilance works.
Enough is enough. November can’t come soon enough to replace this failed administration with leaders who’ll seal the border. Until then, Texas will keep standing between American families and the chaos Joe Biden invited to our doorstep. Let this smuggler’s capture send a message: our troopers are watching, and patriots are done playing nice.
