In a NewsNation interview, an anonymous Border Patrol agent has claimed that the control of the U.S. border is in the hands of cartels, not the government. The agent emphasized that the Border Patrol's actions are merely reactionary to the cartels' activities. The agent also expressed concerns about the safety of U.S. citizens, noting that the border is 'by no means secure' and that individuals crossing into the U.S. might have harmful intentions towards Americans. Additionally, the agent highlighted the challenges faced by the Border Patrol, including being defunded and overwhelmed, which further compromises border security. The agent also expressed being 'terrified to talk to the media' about these issues.
