Rep. Adam Kinzinger's report from the border: More drugs, more human trafficking
[Washington Examiner] Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., has been deployed to the southern border as a member of the Air National Guard four times now, and says he's never seen more drug smuggling and human trafficking than he did on his most recent deployment this month.

"There were a lot more drugs. You’d see people drop bundles," the Illinois Republican told the Washington Examiner. He was referring to large bags of narcotics that had been carried from Mexico and dropped from planes flying over Arizona or by groups on foot for the next smuggler to move further north.

Kinzinger, a lieutenant colonel with the Wisconsin National Guard, said even though large groups of families and children have been arriving in recent months, he observed more people who were trying to avoid detection.

He explained to the Washington Examiner why he wrote in a Facebook post this week that he has never seen anything "this bad" at the border in the past.

"What I saw was a lot more evidence of human trafficking," he said. "I saw a lot more people run than I’ve ever seen, which is interesting. Two out of five times when Border Patrol comes up on a group, they surrender. Three out of five, they do what you call a bomb burst."
