After the Texas National Guard secured a gate on private property along the U.S.-Mexico border, President Joe Biden’s Border Patrol was caught on camera this week unlocking and opening the gate, allowing a large group of illegal immigrants to move deeper into the U.S.
Bill Melugin, Fox News national correspondent, tweeted video of the moment Border Patrol agents unlocked the gate and let the illegal immigrants through on Wednesday.
“This was the moment Border Patrol arrived with the key and let the migrants in. The landowner allows both TX DPS/National Guard and Border Patrol to work here. The gate has always been left open in the past. TX is now closing it, & migrants have to wait for BP to be let in,” Melugin wrote.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott responded to the video on Twitter, writing that the Biden administration is “enabling illegal immigration” and causing a border “crisis.”
“Unbelievable. While Texas secures the border, the federal government is enabling illegal immigration,” Abbott tweeted. “Biden’s open border policies caused this crisis. The federal government must do its job & fix it.”

NEW: For the first time, we witnessed the TX National Guard close & lock a gate on private property at a major crossing area in Eagle Pass, denying entry to migrants who just crossed illegally & expected to be let in. Border Patrol then came w/ a key & let them in for processing.
