Why do we not receive the facts? Because Trump has a rule posted in the West Wing:
“The TRUTH has NO PLACE in this REIGN!”
The Border Patrol eliminates the lie detector in the hiring of BP Agents. This is an example of leading from the top. If no one on the administration tells the truth, why should BP Agents? Many of these people are going to earn a living. They tried everything their military experience has taught them. Many tried police work, but may have been unacceptable because of past records. BPO doesn’t check records, just lie detectors. Not any more.
When I was inducted, during my interview, I was asked why I wanted to join the Army. Easy answer for me, “I was drafted and if I simply get inducted, I go infantry. If I volunteer for the draft, I can get a choice of school and qualify for OCS. TRUTH. Some got OUT of the DRAFT by answering, “I want to kill people.” This, during a war.
Thanks to William Lindberg, Tucson, AZ, I got well-researched FACTS. Even though Deceiver-in-Chief Trump lies, “Hundreds of thousand of illegals are pouring through our open border. Pouring through. Poring. Our borders are a disaster.”
Facts: In 2000, 9212 BP Agents apprehended 1,676,438 crossers at a cost of $1,055,444,000 ($629 per apprehension). That was an average of 182 per agent for the year.
In 2016, BP Agents numbered 19,828 and apprehended 364,768 crossers. The cost was $3,642,820,000 ($9,986 per apprehension). That average was 18.4 per agent for the year.
A strong increase in job availability has diminished the number of crossers.
