Border Patrol facilities in areas of Texas are so overrun that agents have resorted to releasing illegal migrants directly into towns.
The Rio Grande Valley and El Paso sectors remain the busiest crossing points of the U.S.-Mexico border.
NRCC COMMENT: “The Biden Administration created a border crisis and have left law enforcement with no resources to fix it.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair
NEW: Photos show Border Patrol releasing adults in its custody directly into the Texas towns of Carrizo Springs and Uvalde.
Rep. Tony Gonzales, who shared the photos Wednesday, said BP "facilities in the area [are] over capacity," prompting the releases. @TonyGonzales4TX pic.twitter.com/kqlhB4lIw6
