Ainsley youre welcome Nancy
Brian sign it over
Steve more on this throughout
the morning.
In the meantime, lets switch
gears
shocking new video, highlighting
the horrifying impacts of
Americas border crisis a
seven year old migrant girl
abandoned by a smuggler after
being dropped down a 30 foot
wall at the Texas border
Brian. This, as the border
agents arrested twenty four migrants, they
believe used bolt cutter toss,
break into a train car and
traveled deeper into the United
States.
Ainsley Texas state troopers,
giving Fox amp friends, enterprise
reporter Lawrence Jones, an
inside look at what theyre
up against in an exclusive ride
along down at the border in
Del Rio and thats. Where he
joins us live from this morning.
Was it a chopper? You got to go
up in
reporter yeah Ainsley good
morning to you guys,
good morning, family
we were up in the chopper
yesterday.
You know, Dps is really leading
this fight on the ground.
Ive been telling you guys that
for weeks, because you got the
border patrol, they arent
able to do foot pursuits
yesterday, while we were in the
air, they called us on the
radio and said they had illegals,
jumping off a train in the
brush going through. They
didnt have any eyes. They just
had the sensors.
We were able to locate them and
let them know the exact location
where they were.
You know you hear the Biden
administration. They say that
this border is secure.
It is on lockdown
thats, not what were seeing on
the ground, and I think the
important note for the
audience to know is when
you look at the border and you
look at what the cartel is doing.
You cant just think about the
legal people coming across.
You got to think about the drugs
that are coming across the
human trafficking.
It is all one criminal
organization, and sometimes they
use these humans to find out
where the safe pathways are, so
they can get those drugs across.
We reported about two weeks ago
that the DEA released a
statement saying about forty percent of
the drugs. These kids are taking,
these adults are taking are Lac
Ed with fentanyl and its
killing Americans
Texans residents. Land owners
are upset because they are
messing with the livestock
cattle, and then you see them
hiding the drugs in plain sight,
and not only that they have
been able to catch some of these
people that are part of this
criminal enterprise that
have records and theyre saying.
Where is the federal government
on this issue?
Steve no kidding
its a head scratcher
Lawrence? Thank you very much
well be checking in with him
live from Del Rio Texas. All
morning long with those
exclusive hits
Ainsley, I was going to ask the
people on the ground that
were running in that line. Those
were the migrants.
