On “Fox & Friends,” two wives U.S. Border Patrol agents shared their concerns about the increasing number of illegal immigrants crossing the southern border under President Biden’s administration.

Alison Anderson, whose husband served in Iraq, expressed a deep sense of disillusionment.

She questioned the value of her husband’s and his comrades’ sacrifices, given the current state of U.S. border policies.

She spoke passionately about her perception that the administration is neglecting the nation’s borders and security, a sentiment that highlights a feeling of betrayal among those who have served the country.

Cassy Garcia, wife of Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens, discussed the frustration felt by agents who continue to see a relentless flow of migrants despite their efforts.

She criticized the negative portrayal of Border Patrol agents in some political discussions, defending them as dedicated professionals who risk their lives daily.

Both women depict an agency in crisis, with agents feeling overwhelmed and demoralized by what they see as a lack of support and clarity from the government.

Owens, despite being selected by President Biden to lead the agency, shared his own concerns during a House Homeland Security Committee meeting in May.

He highlighted the challenge of balancing humanitarian efforts with the agency’s primary mission of security.

Owens expressed worry about what illegal activities might be happening out of sight while agents are preoccupied with the humanitarian crisis at the border.

His statement reflects a broader concern within the agency about how resources are being allocated and the potential consequences for national security.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) statistics provide a stark backdrop to these personal stories.

The numbers show a dramatic increase in migrant encounters, with more than 200,000 reported in December alone and an average of over 10,000 encounters daily.

This is part of a larger trend, with the fiscal year 2023 setting records for both daily and monthly encounters, amounting to over 2.4 million in total.
