    Leaked video shows tense exchange between Border Patrol chief and agents.
    Washington Examiner (Moderate Right) • Factual Grade 76% • 2 min read

    Two days after leaked audio revealed a heated exchange between Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas and Border Patrol agents in the Yuma Sector of Arizona, the fresh footage shows Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz in Laredo, Texas, responding to agents accusing Biden administration leaders of hampering their ability to do their jobs and keep people safe.
    ...
    "We don't give up. We stay focused. We continue to do the job and the mission we all signed up for. We all raised our hand," Ortiz said. The crowd shot back with claims that the policies don't match the rhetoric. One appeared to complain about the release of criminals into the country.
    ...
    Ortiz insisted that the agents are still doing good work every day by making arrests and getting rid of drugs such as fentanyl and methamphetamine. One of the crowd rebuffed Ortiz, saying "under this administration" over the past year, there was the "highest [number of] fentanyl deaths in the history of our country."

Context: PA court strikes down law that allowed people to get mail-in ballot without a specific excuse.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

No - I find that absentee or mail in voting works great for me. For no other reason than no lines. No leaving work or spending your lunch break. However, I do believe that mail-in-ballots need to be requested and certified. You need I.D. to do everything in our society.


Yes - I strongly believe we shouldn't be trying to get larger turnouts for the sake of feeling good ...



Unsure - It is true that voting in person should be more secure and that if someone can’t bother, they shouldn’t vote. At...
