Where’s That Wall? Texas Prepares To Receive Another Wave Of Obama’s Illegal Aliens

“In the past few months the number of unaccompanied illegal alien minors unlawfully entering the U.S. soared to over 17,000 and the number of family units increased to 21,000,” Chair Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) informed the U.S. House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration and Border Security in a February 4 hearing on Capitol Hill. “If these trends continue it is predicted there will be a 30 percent increase in the record high numbers we witnessed in 2014.”

The rust-brown fence topping the northern levee of the Rio Grande in Hidalgo County is the dividing line between two worlds, which many are willing to risk their lives to cross.

“So the stories are always going to be the same, right?” explained Omar Zamora, public affairs officer for the U.S. Border Patrol Rio Grande Valley Sector. “The pull factors, it’s going to be family reunification and some sort of economic benefit, just trying to get here to get a job and send money back home. In addition to that, we hear that there’s violence. We’ve got gangs over there that are controlling the neighborhoods, controlling the cities.”


It’s a mix that reached a crisis in 2014. Some 260,000 people, mostly unaccompanied children from Central America, flooded across the border through the Rio Grande Valley. Congress called for legislation, then-Gov. Rick Perry mobilized a thousand National Guard troops, and the Eighty-fourth Texas Legislature pumped nearly a billion dollars into the Texas Department of Public Safety for border security.

That was more than a year and a half ago, and with everything that’s happened, the question is what — if anything — has changed?

“Much has changed. Our processes have changed and improved,” said Zamora. Agents of the RGV Sector man the front lines of the battle against drug trafficking and human smuggling. A massive new processing center in McAllen stands ready to hold up to a thousand people. A rare tour found it spotlessly clean and stocked with blankets and clothing — and as it happens, it may soon be needed.

“In the past few months the number of unaccompanied illegal alien minors unlawfully entering the U.S. soared to over 17,000 and the number of family units increased to 21,000,” Chair Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) informed the U.S. House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration and Border Security in a February 4 hearing on Capitol Hill. “If these trends continue it is predicted there will be a 30 percent increase in the record high numbers we witnessed in 2014.” “They’re still coming, not in the same numbers,” Hidalgo County Judge Ramon Garcia told KVUE in January. “I guess you could call it a mini-surge from Central America.”

Like many in the valley, Garcia argues the military presence is scaring off business, despite F.B.I. crime statistics that show McAllen with one of the lowest crime rates for a large U.S. city. Unlike law enforcement, Garcia believes the troops and military hardware, “Just creates a bad image, a negative image of our area which we don’t appreciate.” He argues funding would be better spent on local law enforcement, and a better solution would be more judges and legal resources to quickly sort out who can stay and who must go.

“They’re saying, ‘Here we are.’ So you can add a thousand more folks there, but they’re not trying to evade you,” Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), whose district includes part of the valley, told KVUE on a January stop in Austin. Cuellar carried a bipartisan bill in 2014 that would have expedited cases from Central America.

While that bill never passed, “We also added about $750 million to help Central America beef up its security, fight the drug gangs, provide some economic assistance,” said Cuellar, “Because the more people we get to stay over there, the less people come in.”

Another $80 million has gone to help Mexico secure its southern border with Guatemala, where along with Honduras, the U.S. government has mounted an ad campaign warning what to expect from human traffickers. Zamora can tick over a list of abuses, “From child molestation to raping some of these Central American women, holding them for extortion for extra money, or leaving them out in the brush to die.”

An official from the Guatemalan Consulate told KVUE that migrants are well aware of the risk, but are often faced with violence so desperate in their home country that they are willing to chance the journey. Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX) chairs the House Border Security Caucus, which toured the Valley in February. “If people figure they have a 95 percent chance of being allowed to stay and work and get government benefits, they’re going to come no matter what they might hear on the street or on the radio or see in a leaflet,” said Smith.

In a February 23 hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) asked agency Acting Chief Ronald Vitiello whether giving undocumented immigrants the impression they won’t be allowed to stay in the U.S. without a legal claim would act as a deterrent and slow the flow of unauthorized crossings.

“Yes, I believe that matters,” Vitiello testified.

Meanwhile, agents on the front line are battling an additional fight, against what they believe are perceptions that they’re the aggressors. Joining agents for a day of hands-on training in January revealed an organization keenly aware of the humanity and the dangers they face. Many are from the area, and feel a personal compassion towards the victims of trafficking. They’re also well-aware that the next call could bring the face-to-face with dangerous cartels.

“I think the biggest misconceptions are, ‘Hey they’re just children down there, right? It’s a humanitarian crisis,’ which it was in 2014,” said Zamora, “But what I want to stress is there’s the fifty percent of the other individuals that are running, that are fighting, that have criminal records. We’re out here doing a fantastic job 365 days out of the year, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.” source

The Normally Pro-Trump Sky News Australia Blasts The Iran Peace Deal Calling It “A Tragic And Expensive Waste Of Time” As The President Returns In Failure

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Trump’s Iran War Was Supposed To Show Strength But It Ended With Dead Soldiers, Dead Children, A Surviving Regime, And A ‘Paper Peace’ No One Can Explain

There it is, Donald Trump’s war with Iran has ended, but not with victory, regime change, the destruction of Iran’s wicked influence in the Middle East, or some grand masterstroke of “peace through strength,” but with a bewildering memorandum of understanding that leaves the Iranian regime standing, breathing, boasting, and preparing for whatever comes next. Trump’s Iran war should sober up every Christian who still believes that political power can save a collapsing world. It absolutely cannot. The old world system is not being restored. It is being prepared. Prepared for the revealing of the man of sin.

“Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.” Jeremiah 7:8 (KJB)

Iran is no innocent victim, the Iranian regime is wicked. It hates Israel, exports terror, persecutes its own people, arms proxies, and dreams of dominance in the region. But acknowledging Iran’s wickedness does not require pretending that every American military adventure is wisdom from above. Two things can be true at the same time: Tehran is evil, and Trump’s Iran war was a disastrous mistake. According to Sky’s Mark Stone, the White House announced that Trump had signed a memorandum aimed at ending the war with Iran, Iran’s foreign minister confirmed Tehran had signed it as well, and yet the whole thing was wrapped in confusion, contradictory timing, remote signatures, Versailles theatrics, and another expected signing still to come. That is not statesmanship, that’s diplomatic vaudeville with piles of dead bodies in the background.

Trump’s signing of the Iran Peace Deal is a slap in the face to the memory of the 13 United States soldiers who gave their lives in the war he started

The most haunting line in the Sky News analysis is this: “So many school children died in Minab. For what?” Sky reports that Trump still would not admit the strike was America’s mistake, while Stone says sources told him that it was. That cuts through all the campaign slogans, all the phony tough-guy branding, all the red MAGA hats, all the applause lines, and all the cable-news spin. Children died, teachers died, and families were shattered. And for what? A paper agreement that does not end Iran’s malign influence, does not make America great again, and does not appear to have solved the thing the war was supposedly fought over.

For years, conservative Christians were told that Trump was the master negotiator, the consumate dealmaker, the man who alone could command the world stage. But this Iran episode reveals something far more sobering: the world stage is not a boardroom, the Middle East is not a casino development, and the enemies of Israel and the West are not impressed by branding. You do not bomb your way into clarity, stumble your way into a memorandum, and then call the rubble you created “peace.”

This is why NTEB has always warned you against confusing politics with prophecy and politicians with deliverers. For the past 17 years, we have been giving you the headlines through the filter of the King James Bible, but we never confuse the two. God is not working through the Republican Party to ‘bring in the kingdom’. God is not waiting for a MAGA foreign policy to fulfill His promises to Israel. Israel would absolutely still exist without Donald Trump, no matter how many times Trump says the opposite.  God is not dependent on Trump, Macron, Netanyahu, the G7, NATO, the UN, or the Department of War. The Lord has His own calendar, His own covenants, His own prophetic program, and His own King coming back to rule and reign. Until then, the nations will continue doing what the nations do: wars, rumours of wars, making deals, breaking promises, burying victims, and calling it progress.

Under The Watchful Gaze Of Emmanuel Macron, President Donald Trump Signs Memorandum Of Understanding Effectively Ending The Iran War

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Tonight Emmanuel Macron was a witness to history, and perhaps even prophecy as he witnessed Donald Trump sign Iran War MOU preserving Persia

There are moments in history that do not merely happen, they announce themselves. They come dressed in symbolism so thick, so unmistakable, so prophetically loaded, that only the willingly blind could miss what is taking place. Donald Trump signing away the U.S.-Iran War would have been shocking enough. But Donald Trump doing it at Versailles, with Emmanuel Macron standing there as the European prince in the room, blows the lid clean off the whole end times setup. Do you realize what just happened?

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 (KJB)

America goes to war with Iran, the terror regime survives, the mullahs remain in power, the Strait of Hormuz becomes a bargaining chip, sanctions relief enters the conversation, and the whole thing is served up beneath the royal chandeliers of Versailles on a golden platter. And there, in the middle of the frame, stands Emmanuel Macron — polished, prepared, globalist, European, Roman, and just waiting for his time to come. We told you years ago to watch this man.

We told you Emmanuel Macron was not like the others. We showed you the strange prophetic markers gathering around him. We showed you the Assyrian trail. We showed you the revived Roman Empire architecture. We showed you the Vatican flavor, the Charlemagne language, the European sovereignty doctrine, the militarized Europe agenda, and the way this man seems to appear whenever the world stage starts bending toward Bible prophecy.

And now here he is again. Not off to the side. Not in the shadows. Not as a footnote. But standing right there as America signs terms with Persia.

Christian, don’t miss what just happened. Iran was not defeated. Iran was preserved. The terror regime was left standing. The mullahs were not dragged out. The nuclear question was not finally buried. The proxies were not erased. Instead, the world was given another “framework,” another “process,” another “window,” another globalist peace package that manages evil instead of destroying it.

That is how the coming kingdom of Antichrist is being built. It is being assembled piece by piece, treaty by treaty, summit by summit, war by war, crisis by crisis, and signing ceremony by signing ceremony. Each deal teaches the world to think globally. Each crisis teaches the world to surrender sovereignty. Each war teaches the world to beg for a savior. Each peace agreement teaches the world to accept the man who can make the madness stop. That man is coming. Versailles wasn’t just a dinner, a signing, or another diplomatic photo-op. It was a prophetic snapshot of the world that is coming. America weakened, Iran preserved, Europe elevated, and the man from France standing in the frame like the Assyrian waiting in the wings.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: As America Celebrates 250 Years, She Has Quietly Surrendered Herself To Debt, Surveillance, Digital Money And Global Control

It’s ‘Bread And Circuses’ At The White House As America Celebrates Liberty While Surrendering To Surveillance, Debt And End Times Global Control

A nation celebrating liberty while surrendering itself to surveillance, debt, biometric control, digital money, artificial intelligence, and global governance is not a free nation. It is a nation living off the fumes of a freedom it no longer understands. The flags, the stirring songs, the speeches and fireworks are still there, but underneath all that patriotic pageantry is a people being quietly trained to accept chains, so long as those chains are presented as convenience, security, progress, and innovation. Founding Father Benjamin Franklin said “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” 267 years later, those words applied to America ring truer in our day than when Franklin first said it. We just don’t see it because we’ve become spiritually blinded.

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalm 9:17 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, America is turning 250 years old, and instead of finding her on her knees in repentance before the God who has so richly blessed her, we find her cheering cage fights on the lawn of the White House. That is not merely entertainment, that is a parable. The same nation that once sent missionaries around the world with a King James Bible in one hand and the gospel of the grace of God in the other is now staging the modern equivalent of Roman spectacle at the very seat of executive power. Juvenal called it “bread and circuses,” the tragic condition of a people who had traded duty, virtue and liberty for amusement, appetite and distraction. Rome didn’t know she was dying while the games were playing, and America seems to be oblivious to that fact as well. Today we bring you the hard truth of America in her last days, and what you can expect to see if the Lord tarries.
