Three migrants, a woman and two children, drowned Saturday in the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, Texas – very recently the epicenter of the migrant crisis – just days after state authorities blocked the US Border Patrol from accessing miles of the US-Mexico border, according to a post on X by Rep. Henry Cuellar.

“This is a tragedy, and the State bears responsibility,” Cuellar, a Democrat from Texas, said on X, formally known as Twitter.

The congressman said Border Patrol learned a group of six migrants were in distress in the Rio Grande at about 9 p.m. on Friday.

Border Patrol called the Texas Military Department, the Texas National Guard and Texas Department of Public Safety but “were unsuccessful” at relaying the information by phone, Cuellar said in the social media post. Federal agents then went to the gate at Shelby Park, set up by Texas authorities, to provide the information, Cuellar said.

“However, Texas Military Department soldiers stated they would not grant access to the migrants – even in the event of an emergency – and that they would send a soldier to investigate the situation,” Cuellar said on X.

See that’s the thing about you people.

You think you’re really doing the same thing leftists do right now, where you just post some sources and type out some bullshit about how it ties to your stance that murdering immigrants is a valid human thought.

Ignoring the scientifically proven fact that you are so fucking stupid your brain literally is unable to make the logical connections to do so, looking like a complete clown to anyone above room temp IQ.

Ignoring the fact that even now you are just unhinged fearposting because some pedophile tells you what to think.

Because at the end of the day, the only thing your dumb fucking skill can understand is acute lead poisoning.

Remember this liberals, next time you try to “peacefully vote” the fascists out. Remember what you are too cowardly to do.

If your mind is too small to comprehend unchecked immigration will ruin this cohntry there is no saving you. I have no sympathy for you or what will happen to you and your loved ones if your terrible ideals come to light. Also, what scientifically proven fact would you like to source on how every single conservative is less smart than liberals? From the sounds of it you have one source from a very left leaning point of view that stroked your ego so much you just have to quote it.
