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

President Trump Drops The Hammer On Attorney General Pam Bondi As Epstein Files Fury Continues To Consume The DOJ In A Stunning Power Shakeup

President Donald Trump Fires Pam Bondi As Epstein Files Fallout Explodes Into A Full-Blown Scandal Inside The DOJ

When Donald Trump regained the presidency for a second term, one of the first things he did was to install what we call a cadre of cartoon characters to various high-level positions like the FBI, DHS, AG and others. One by one, they’ve been falling like dominoes. The woman who claimed that the Epstein Files were on her desk and she was ready to start prosecuting, now former Attorney General Pam Bondi, did nothing with those files and now she is gone. The Epstein Files outlasted her, and perhaps, will outlast the entire Trump administration until someone does something with them.

“Some men’s sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.” 1 Timothy 5:24 (KJB)

Pam Bondi is out, and if there was a final blow to her already battered standing, the Epstein files controversy may well have been it. President Donald Trump has reportedly removed his attorney general after weeks of mounting outrage over the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein records, a debacle that drew bipartisan criticism, fueled accusations of deception, and intensified the sense that Bondi had lost control of one of the most politically toxic scandals in Washington. AP reports her tenure was marked by turmoil, with the Epstein files specifically becoming one of the biggest flashpoints attached to her downfall. Trump desperately wanted Bondi to make the Epstein Files disappear, but instead she ignited them into a bonfire. Chaos continues to reign in Trump’s White House.

Pam Bondi already fired as attorney general, Cabinet official teed up as replacement

FROM FOX NEWS: President Donald Trump reportedly has already fired Attorney General Pam Bondi, according to two sources familiar with the matter who spoke with Fox News Digital. Bondi met with Trump in the Oval Office Wednesday night ahead of his speech to the nation on the war in Iran, where she reportedly was informed of her ouster, according to two sources familiar with the meeting.

One of those sources said that by the time Trump took his place behind the podium for the address, Bondi already had lost her job and was on her way back to Florida. Trump is reportedly considering replacing Bondi with Environmental Protection Agency Director Lee Zeldin, according to the sources familiar with the matter. Trump held a meeting with Zeldin at the White House Tuesday to discuss wildfire and prevention, where talks of the transition also unfolded, according to an individual familiar with the meeting.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: The AI Future We’ve Been So Afraid Of Has Already Arrived And It’s So Much Worse Than You Ever Thought It Would Be

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Artificial Intelligence Is Rapidly Becoming The Digital Nervous System Of A Christ-Rejecting World Racing Toward Final Judgment With King Jesus

For years, the world has been conditioned to welcome artificial intelligence as the next great leap forward for humanity. We were told it would help us work faster, think better, solve harder problems, and usher in a new age of peace, safety, and convenience. The sales pitch was polished, reassuring, almost soothing. There was no need to fear, they said. We could control AI, they said. It would only exist to serve mankind, and we’d make sure it would never cross the line. But that line is already gone, and here we are.

“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.” James 3:15 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the future people once feared is no longer lurking on the horizon like some distant science fiction nightmare. It is here now, embedded in the systems that govern speech, commerce, surveillance, warfare, medicine, education, banking, and human identity itself. It has arrived quietly, efficiently, and with almost no resistance. Worse still, most people do not even realize they are living inside it already. This is not merely a technological revolution, it is a spiritual conditioning program for the last days. Artificial intelligence is not dangerous simply because it is powerful. It is dangerous because it is being placed into the hands of a lost and God-hating world that has already rejected truth, rejected righteousness, and rejected the Lord Jesus Christ. The world laughs at such warnings because it has been trained to mock discernment. But the architecture is already rising all around us. How would you describe it? You know. This is Babel with servers. This is Sodom with software, Pharaoh with algorithms, this is Nebuchadnezzar with machine learning. This is exactly what all those cheesy 1990’s low-budget prophecy movies told you was coming, and you didn’t listen. Here’s a fun fact – the very same people bringing you this dystopian AI digital prison are the very same people waging war in the Middle East, and today we help you connect all the end times dots.

President Trump Sees The ‘Handwriting On The Wall’ That War With Iran Is Virtually Unwinnable And Begins The Process Of Attempting A Face-Saving Exit

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump Seeks Endgame in Iran War as NATO Offers No Real Help and Strait of Hormuz Remains Unsettled

After reducing much of Iran to rubble, and having come to the realization that this war is not winnable, President Trump is now reportedly preparing to walk away and leave the smoking ruins to whoever wants it, with the regime still firmly in place, and their ability to launch missiles on their neighbors still very much intact. History will not be kind to this conflict when it’s discussed , and will remain a black mark on the United States for a long time. Time to rename the Department of War, Pete.

“And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.” Daniel 5:25 (KJB)

What we are watching right now is not strength, it is the ugly public unraveling of a war plan that did not go according to script. Donald Trump entered this conflict speaking like a man who intended to break Iran, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and make the world bow to the image of American power. But here we are at the end of March 2026, and the picture looks very different. Trump has now told the New York Post that this war will not last “much longer” and that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen “automatically” after the United States exits. At the same time, White House messaging has shifted to say that fully reopening Hormuz is no longer one of the core U.S. objectives. That is not victory language, that’s a pivot.

Gas has gone over $4 per gallon, airlines say they are out of fuel in a few weeks, NATO has abandoned us, and our nation teeters on the edge of recession. Who thought this war was a good idea, anyway?

When a leader begins by drawing a hard line, then quietly starts redefining the goalposts in the middle of the fight, that usually means the original objective has become too expensive, too difficult, or too politically dangerous to keep defending. Trump had projected the image of decisive military control. Instead, the war has dragged on, the Strait remains disrupted, and the administration is now talking as though the problem will somehow solve itself once America leaves. And then there is the coalition problem. Trump did not get the united Western front that his yes-men in Washington assumed would appear on command. Key European allies have resisted direct support, with countries such as Italy, Spain, and France denying or restricting requests tied to the war effort. Even where some logistical help remains, this is nowhere near a broad NATO-style show of force. Europe is not marching in lockstep behind this campaign, and that matters. So what are we really looking at?

We are looking at the limits of the MAGA doctrine, and quite possibly the functional end of the MAGA Movement itself. We are looking at what happens when a government, drunk on it’s own power, believes it can ignite another Middle East war, manage global oil choke points, control allied governments, pressure Iran into submission, and still walk away looking triumphant. That fantasy is now colliding with reality. Oil markets have been jolted, global shipping has been thrown into uncertainty, and the world has been reminded yet again that once war begins, it rarely obeys the neat political storyline written for it.

This is why the current Trump line about Hormuz reopening “automatically” deserves to be called out for what it is: narrative management. If the Strait were going to be reopened by force, they would say so plainly. If the mission had succeeded on its own stated terms, there would be no need to soften the objective after the fact. Instead, the message now is that America can leave and the desired result will somehow materialize later. That sounds less like a commander finishing the job and more like a politician looking for the least damaging exit ramp. From our perspective, this is another reminder that the nations rage, the kings of the earth strut across the stage, and yet the whole thing is marked by pride, confusion, and instability. Men boast of order, but they keep producing disorder. They promise decisive outcomes, but they deliver wider chaos. They talk peace while dropping bombs, then talk inevitability when they cannot secure the very result they said was necessary at the start. That is not wisdom. That is the blindness of power drunk on its own mythology.

The real lesson here is not merely that Trump may be cutting his losses. The deeper lesson is that modern political power remains what it has always been when separated from truth: loud, forceful, theatrical, and ultimately fragile. This war was sold in the language of control. It is now being reframed in the language of retreat. And that is the headline beneath the headline. Trump can call it strategy, his boot-licking defenders can call it leverage, and Fox News can call it a recalibration. But to those of us with eyes that see, it sure looks like this war did not go as planned, the allies never truly came on board, the Strait of Hormuz remains the visible symbol of unfinished business, and the White House is already preparing the public for an ending that falls far short of the original implied promise.

One more thing. To say that Donald Trump has a ‘mercurial’ nature would be a vast understatement, so I will close with the possibility that he could change his mind by five o’clock tonight and send the ground troops in anyway. To quote Forrest Gump, our president is very much like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’ll get. Bring our soldiers home, it’s time to say goodbye to World War Trump.
