Border Patrol recruitment at record high as agents end ‘diaper’ duty

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is enjoying historically high recruiting, with agents happy the job is back to law enforcement after four years of “diaper” duty and “Uber” shuttling during former President Joe Biden’s opening of the border, according to a top official.

Tom Homan, President Donald Trump’s border czar, said Wednesday that the president’s moves to close the border have boosted morale in the agency and convinced possible applicants that the Border Patrol’s job is again doing the job of securing the border, not caring for illegal migrants.
 
“Last month,” Homan told the podcast of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), “Border Patrol had the highest recruiting numbers in the history of that CBP.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
