El Paso is a ghost town days after stampede involving 600 MIGRANTS as Gov. Abbott threatens full force of law as part of $10 BILLION border plan

Governor sends more National Guard members following migrant riot Thursday

Number of migrants crossing into US through Texas has plummeted, as border crossings have spiked in New Mexico, Arizona, California

The site of last week's migrant riot in El Paso had largely emptied out Monday, as the Texas National Guard sent in more troops and reinforced the crossing with more razor wire.

Thursday, some 600 migrants stormed the barrier placed by Texas soldiers and had violent confrontations-- resulting in the arrest of one migrant for assaulting a service member.

Junior Evaristo-Benitez, 21, of Honduras, has been charged with assault on a public servant, a 3rd degree felony, and is being held at the El Paso County Jail, a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety confirmed.

More Texas National Guard soldiers deployed and more razor wire installed at the border this weekend in El Paso.

We continue to reinforce border barriers and repel any illegal immigrants.

#7 ....most don't stay. The state doesn't have the $$$ for services even for their own. The governor(D) has even chartered buses to Denver for them. Freebies are up north. One of the few benefits of being among the poorer states in the Union.

#8 THIS is how you bend that SOB to being a good neighbor! Shut it down, or just throttle the flow and watch him do the "Potomac Kow-Tow" in a heartbeat. Remittances!

"Money sent home by Mexicans working abroad rose by 7.6% in 2023, to reach a record $63 billion"
