Breitbart: Exclusive: Mayorkas Invite to Honor Fallen Border Patrol Agents Sparks Outrage Among Rank and File
DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has been invited to speak at the 15th Annual Border Patrol Foundation Recognition Dinner. This has caused controversy among Border Patrol agents due to Mayorkas' management of the border crisis. The foundation provides support to the families of fallen Border Patrol agents, but many agents believe that inviting Mayorkas is a poor choice. Mayorkas has been criticized for his handling of the border crisis and for dishonoring the men and women of the U.S. Border Patrol. The National Border Patrol Council has publicly criticized Mayorkas, and under his leadership, Border Patrol line-of-duty deaths have increased significantly. The cancellation of swift removals for migrant children and overcrowded facilities have also added to the agents' frustrations. The foundation has a history of inviting DHS leadership to the event, but many agents feel that inviting Mayorkas is insulting to the sacrifices made by fallen agents and their families.

Foreign Policy: Why Erdogan Is Unlikely to Cut Ties With Hamas

Despite previous attempts to normalize relations with Israel, Erdogan seems ready to burn bridges once again and stand with Hamas, potentially sacrificing Turkey's strategic interests. The Turkish leader's actions confirm suspicions about his true affinities and further isolate Turkey on the international stage.
