According to Fox News border correspondent Bill Melugin, the Border Patrol Union was never contacted about President Joe Biden’s Thursday visit to the border, nor were they invited to meet with the POTUS.
Melugin shared the following on X:
The Border Patrol union president tells me the White House never reached out or invited them for Biden’s border visit in Brownsville today. They expect Biden to cite the union’s support for the failed Senate border bill today. “Keep our name out of your mouth today,” union says.

Melugin was replying to a short post from the Border Patrol Union, which simply said “Attention President Biden: Keep our name out of your mouth today.”
Former President Donald Trump will also be at the border on Thursday in Eagle Pass, Texas. Trump will appear on a special edition of Hannity Thursday night and blasted Biden in an op-ed for The Daily Mail.
From The Daily Mail:
In a last-minute trip, Biden is chasing me to the border, no doubt desperate to shirk blame for the catastrophe he has caused.
But do not be deceived. The abolition of America’s borders is Joe Biden’s policy. The mass-migration of millions of illegal aliens into the United States is Joe Biden’s plan. This is Joe Biden’s invasion.
When I left office, we handed Biden the most secure border in U.S. history.
We ended catch and release. We built hundreds of miles of Border Wall. We implemented Remain in Mexico, Safe Third Country Agreements with Central American nations, an asylum ban, Title 42, and rapid removals.
When I was president, when illegal aliens trespassed across our border, they were captured, detained, and deported.
When Joe Biden came into office, he willfully and deliberately obliterated every strong border policy I put into place, and launched the largest border invasion in American history.
