Border Patrol agent reveals cartels control the US southern border: OMG documentary

A US Border Patrol agent blew the whistle about the atrocities taking place at the US-Mexico border, confirming to investigative journalist James O'Keefe that the cartels are running the show and the Biden administration is complicit. Aaron Veckey, a veteran BP agent with 19 years on the force, explained that after he reported significant human rights violations to the Office of Special Counsel, he was issued a cease and desist letter, ordering him to remain silent.

Despite the potential consequences, the border agent appears to be determined to shed light on the crisis, assuring the journalist, "My conscience will be clean, that's way more important than my pension." The agent will be featured in O'Keefe's upcoming documentary, Line in the Sand, which is set to premiere on Oct. 10. The film follows James O'Keefe's trek to investigate the border crisis from the front lines.

The journalist released a clip on Tuesday previewing a scene from the film that featured Veckey at his post in Ajo, Arizona. In it, the border agent tells O'Keefe: "The cartels run the border down here."

"Where I first saw it [human rights violations] was here, underneath that canopy there," said Veckey, pointing to an area along the border. "It was just men, women, children...They were freezing. It was at least degrees."

The agent went on to reveal that US Border Patrol agents are forced between cartel operations and bureaucratic pressure to keep quiet saying, "They have pushed us around through fear, through browbeating us. They've ordered us to do stuff."

"If they [cartels] have a thousand bodies for us," he added, "we pick them up as fast as we push them all into this parking lot."

Veckey filed reports detailing the violation to bring these atrocities to the attention of the Office of Special Counsel (OSC). However, he was met with a cease and desist letter, ordering him to remain silent on the issues.
