GREGORY K. BOVINO: ICE Agents are the real deal, but their work is primarily investigative, which is reactive. They investigate crimes after the damage is reactive. Border Patrol checkpoints are proactive. They stop the flow before the body count begins. They are able to engage in pursuits, they are able to conduct roving patrols. They have authority throughout the country. Systems beat speeches. Everything else is theater.

Folks, this video shows exactly what Border Patrol can do when they are allowed to be used. We keep seeing illegal alien truck drivers kill Americans on open highways. That is what happens when the most effective branch of DHS sits at the border, staring south. ICE Agents are the real deal, but their work is primarily investigative, which is reactive.
