Acting CBP chief 'shocked' by images of Border Patrol on horses, as administration doubles down

FIRST ON FOX: The acting Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) told staff in an email Friday that he is "shocked" by images that show Border Patrol agents on horseback blocked Haitian migrants in Del Rio – just hours after President Biden repeated a false claim that the images show migrants being "whipped" and promised to make them "pay."

Miller was referring to images that show agents on horseback last week blocking Haitian migrants from entering the U.S. Initial claims that agents were using "whips" were debunked by officials and agents, who noted the migrants were using long reins to control the horse, and were twirling their reins to move the horse forward.
