Part 10/12:
Outgoing Border Patrol Chief Tom Homan highlighted that in the past 24 hours, the number of encounters had plummeted to just 95 across the entire southern border—an unprecedented low. He urged Congress to make these gains permanent through legislation, calling for the "biggest deportation operation" that aligns with what he describes as the American people’s mandate to "finish the job."
This shift signifies not only a change in policy but also a strategic message to drug cartels and human traffickers: the border is no longer open or unprotected. The contrast with the previous year’s chaos underscores a broader political debate about border security and immigration reform.
