Nearly 200 Family Units and Unaccompanied Children Arrested in less than 24 hours in the Rio Grande Valley
EDINBURG, Texas – U.S. Border Patrol agents in the Rio Grande Valley continue to apprehend large groups of family units and unaccompanied children.
Thursday, a group of 57 illegal aliens turned themselves in to McAllen agents near Granjeno, Texas. The group consisted of family units from the countries of Honduras and Nicaragua.
A few hours later, agents assigned to the Weslaco station encountered a group of 34 illegal aliens comprised of family units and unaccompanied children from the countries of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.
Later that night, McAllen agents working near Mission, Texas, arrested a group of 87 illegal aliens consisting of family units and unaccompanied children from the countries of Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua.
Border Patrol is processing the subjects accordingly.
The Rio Grande Valley Sector currently has multiple campaigns focused on rescues and danger awareness, such as “Operation Big Rig” and “No Se Arriesgue” to combat smuggling and ultimately save lives. Call 911 to report suspicious activity; “They’re humans, not cargo!”

Fast Fact: Georgia trails California in foreign languages used in issuing drivers licenses – but only by three
In Georgia, the Department of Drivers Services accommodates eleven (11) foreign languages for the road rules written exam.
California does the same, but uses fourteen (14) foreign languages (is there really such a thing as a “foreign language” in California?).
We predict that the people who really run Georgia will soon catch up and eventually out-do California. ICYMI, Georgia has passed the fifty thousand marker on the number of drivers licenses and/or official photo ID Cards it has issued to illegal aliens who have deferred action on deportation.
Georgia gives these happy deferred action illegal aliens the exact same drivers license we give to real immigrants and Mercedes Benz executives. Even California has a notably different drivers license for the formerly “undocumented.”
Mexico does not issue drivers licenses to any illegal aliens. When the Democrats were last in power in Georgia, illegal aliens could not legally obtain a Georgia drivers license.

Fast Fact: Tear gas used once a month at border under Obama
Tear gas used once a month at border under Obama
DHS data shows deployments dating back years
“The same tear-gas agent that the Trump administration is taking heat for deploying against a border mob this weekend is actually used fairly frequently — including more than once a month during the later years of President Barack Obama’s administration, according to Homeland Security data.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection has used 2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile, or CS, since 2010, and deployed it 26 times in fiscal 2012 and 27 times in 2013. The use dropped after that, but was still deployed three times in 2016, Mr. Obama’s final full year in office.”
Fast Fact: Temporary drivers license for foreign nationals “proper ID” at Georgia polls #DDS #LimitedTerm
Temporary drivers license issued to non-citizens is “proper ID” at Georgia polls.
This seems far, far away from “voter suppression.” The driver’s license Georgia issues to non-citizens – including illegal aliens who have already been ordered deported – is acceptable and “proper identification” when casting a ballot.
This, according to multiple staffers at the main office of the Cobb Board of Elections and Registration office in Marietta when asked multiple times by this early voter last week. To get an answer I had to explain what a limited term license is.
For those who are not well versed in the topic, the driver’s license DDS issues to foreigners is labeled “LIMITED TERM” across the top, which is the only difference between it and a U.S. citizen’s driver’s license.
The acceptance appears to be in compliance with Georgia law (OCGA 21-2-417) which merely says “proper identification shall consist of any one of the following: A Georgia driver’s license which was properly issued by the appropriate state agency;…”
This brings to mind the several attempts in the last few years under the Gold Dome to clarify the limitations of the limited term driver’s license, which, generally, is supposed to be valid for the period of an alien’s visa.
In the 2017 General Assembly, House Rep Alan Powell introduced a bill to add “INELIGIBLE VOTER” – which was a compromise to his original language, which would have added the term “NON CITIZEN” to the non-citizens driver’s license. Powell came under heavy fire from the illegal alien lobby and his attempt at driver’s license/voter ID reform died.
More than 20,000 aliens who have received a deferral in deportation proceedings or who have already been ordered deported also hold the same limited term license according to information from DDS early this year.
In 2016, the state senate passed a bill sponsored by Senator Josh McKoon that would have marked the limited term driver’s license held by this group with “NO LAWFUL STATUS.”
McKoon contended his bill would help prevent voter fraud and terrorism. The driving and ID credentials are also accepted as ID to enter federal buildings and to board airliners in America’s airports. Including the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials (GALEO), corporate -funded opponents argued such reform would “stigmatize” people and represented a ‘Scarlett Letter’ for “immigrants.” The legislation died in the House.
For this writer, the lunacy that a driver’s license designed and intended for foreign nationals is accepted as valid ID to vote in Georgia is surpassed by the fact that literally no official I have ever spoken to at my Cobb polling place over the years – supervisors included – had ever even heard of a “limited term” driver’s license.
For a memorable first-hand education, readers may want to ask about this when they vote.
