Mayorkas grilled on claims DHS was warned of Del Rio crisis in June
Fox News
Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas on Wednesday quizzed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on reports that the Biden administration had been warned about an incoming migrant crisis at Del Rio as early as June -- months before thousands of Haitian migrants flooded the sector.
At a House Homeland Security hearing, McCaul said he obtained emails from CBP agents in Del Rio warning and asking for more sources in June and noted that the Panama foreign minister on June 3 warned of an influx at the southern border.
A similar claim was made by Brandon Judd, head of the National Border Patrol Council, who told Fox News last week that agents had warned that Del Rio was at risk and needed more resources months ago
