Shocking pictures spread light on President Biden’s border crisis, while showing El Paso, Texas being overrun by migrants crossing over, which is causing the city to look like a ‘third-world country’.
Regional Border Patrol Chief Gloria Chavez posted snapshots Monday night on Instagram that showed hordes of migrants dumped under an El Paso bridge over the weekend because the city has no more room to even process them.
“We’ve never seen anything like this,” said outraged US Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas), whose district covers part of the city, as El Paso began grappling with its highest daily influx ever last month. “It’s a scene that you would see in a third-world country, not in the streets of El Paso.”
Gonzalez warned, “Everything that I’ve been told and every indication tells me that we haven’t seen the worst yet. I was having regular conversations with the White House a few months ago, and now, we really aren’t having any conversations. Just when you think things can’t get any worse, they get worse. “
Chavez captioned the photos, “Since September 1st, El Paso Sector has averaged 1,300 encounters per day.”
“Most of the migrants flooding El Paso’s border are from Venezuela, and their numbers are averaging daily all-time highs,” Border Patrol said.
The migrants, who cross into the US illegally and then claim they need asylum, are usually processed in a massive intake center that can handle 3,400 people.
Despite the skyrocketing numbers, people are now being processed in a makeshift set-up under the local highway overpass.
The migrants are then either left on local streets, since there are no more government-funded hotel or shelter rooms available, or helped along to their final destination, which is usually New York City.
“We ask the migrants where they wish to go. Nearly all of the migrants say New York City,” said El Paso spokeswoman Laura Cruz-Acosta. “To date, we have chartered 25 buses. All have been to New York City.”
The number of migrants bussed off since late August has totaled at least 1,135, the city said.
The impact on El Paso is a very sad sight sight to see. You have hundreds of folks that are essentially loitering,” Gonzales said about the migrants left to wander the streets. “Many of them don’t have a place to stay. Many of them don’t have a place to stay because the non-governmental organizations are overcapacity, so they’re sleeping on the streets. Some of them are panhandling for money to get bus tickets or plane tickets to go elsewhere.”
In most of the photos that were posted on Instagram, the large number of migrants seems to mainly consist of young men in their 20s and 30s. Some stood with blankets wrapped around their shoulders and others had backpacks and containers of water on the ground nearby.
The Border Patrol’s El Paso sector saw a staggering 46.9% increase in encounters with migrants from October through July, compared to the same period last year, according to the latest figures from US Customs and Border Protection.
In July, authorities tallied 24,916 encounters, an average of about 804 a day, up 21.2% from July 2021, the statistics show.
