Biden Admin Finds Way To Punish Border Patrol Agents Falsely Accused Of “Whipping” Migrants Even After Clearing Them

“the agency’s Office of Professional Responsibility found multiple infractions, but ones that were a far cry from Biden’s claim that migrants were whipped”

As you may recall, in September of last year, Border Patrol agents were accused of “whipping” migrants at the southern border.

It was a total lie, pushed by Democrats and the media. Even the White House embraced the lie without knowing all the facts.

Biden ran to the cameras as fast as he could and declared, “those people will pay.”

Now, months later, an investigation has found that these agents didn’t whip anyone, yet they are still going to be punished. Why?

CBP finds ‘no evidence’ Border Patrol agents whipped Haitian migrants, but still seeks to discipline them

The head of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on Friday said there was “no evidence” that Border Patrol struck Haitian migrants with their reins or used whips in Del Rio, Texas, last year, implicitly rebuking the false claim made by President Biden and other top Democrats — even as the agency recommended punishment for the agents for infractions such as “offensive” language and unnecessary force.

“[DHS’ Office of Professional Responsibility] found no evidence Border Patrol agents involved in this incident struck anyone with their reins intentionally or otherwise,” CBP Commissioner Chris Magnus said at a press conference, in which he also said that agents were not carrying whips…

While the core complaint against the agents was found to be false, the agency’s Office of Professional Responsibility found multiple infractions, but ones that were a far cry from Biden’s claim that migrants were whipped. Magnus said that an agent was found to have used “denigrating and offensive” language against migrants regarding national origin and gender, and was accused of having maneuvered a horse around a child in an “unsafe manner.”

Here Are The Biden Admin‘s Proposed Charges Against Border Agents Accused Of ‘Whipping’ Migrants

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has proposed two charges against the Border Patrol agents involved in the alleged “whipping” of migrants in Del Rio, Texas, according to documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The first charge is for “poor judgment” for instructing noncitizens “to go back to Mexico, or words to that effect,” while the second is for “unsafe conduct” for maneuvering the agent’s horse “in a way that caused a noncitizen to fall backward into the Rio Grande River … thereby compromising the safety of the noncitizen, yourself, and your horse.”


These proposals are not yet final, and CBP is expected to announce the results of its investigation into the agents as soon as Friday, according to people familiar with the matter not authorized to speak publicly. It’s unclear how many agents will be charged.

“You knew or should have known that using your horse to block a noncitizen from exiting the water at the boat ramp created an unsafe situation, particularly for the noncitizen, but also for you and your horse,” the charges read.
