HERE COMES THE FLOOD: Border Patrol Prepares for Mass Releases, 'the Dam is About to Break'

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.09.23

Border officials in Washington D.C., 2,000 miles away from the crisis at the southern border, have authorized Border Patrol agents to begin “safe” mass releases of migrants to city streets if non-governmental organizations don’t have the capacity to hold them, multiple sources tell Fox News.

Fox News border correspondent Bill Melugin confirmed the story, as well.

“NEW: Per multiple CBP sources, last night, CBP & Border Patrol leadership made decision to authorize all Border Patrol sectors to begin “safe” street releases of migrants to communities across border *if* NGO shelters and CBP facilities do not have the capacity to hold them,” Melugin says.

“This means in coming days we will likely begin to see mass releases of migrants at bus stops, gas stations, supermarkets etc in communities across the border as illegal crossings continue to surge to record highs ahead of T42 drop in 2 days.”

“The dam is about to break,” one border patrol source said.

From Fox News:

The consequence of this decision is that migrants will be mass released at bus stops, gas stations, supermarkets and in towns and cities across the border as Customs and Border Protection facilities are already over capacity in multiple sectors, according to CBP sources who were not authorized to speak publicly.

NGOs are quickly approaching their limits to house migrants and tens of thousands more migrants are expected to surge into the United States once the Title 42 public health order is lifted on May 11.

The mass releases will only happen if NGOs run out of space, but officials believe that is likely.

Streets in El Paso, TX are already overwhelmed by migrants as seen in this recent CNN clip:
