EPISODE379TGL
On this week’s episode of The Green Line, Art Del Cueto provides another update in the continued discussion of the Federal Mandate regarding the Covid 19 Vaccinations. While many Agents are not supportive of the idea of a Federal Mandate, Art stresses the consultation with the Agents physicians when it comes to seeking out a Medical Waiver rather than collecting stories from the Web or social media.
The conversation regarding the Situation at Del Rio and the Agents of the Border Patrol is also discussed with the disappointment and anger at the Administration for not investigating the facts surrounding what was taking place at the Southern Border and instead chastising the Horse Patrol. Andy points out that the area under the bridge in Del Rio is now cleared out after tents and a multitude of people were camped out waiting to be screened. Where did they go? This seems to be a flip flopping of the numbers in this past week by DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas as far as the numbers that were allowed into the United States.
