Most Americans might think U.S. Customs and Border Protection works at ports of entry and protects the border of this country.
CBP.gov says agents aren’t just the “guardians of our Nation’s borders.” They “safeguard the American homeland at and beyond our borders.”
Until Joe Biden was elected president, they likely didn’t think “beyond our borders” meant they would work to manage the borders of other countries.
But alas, that must explain why CBP seeks volunteers to fly across the Atlantic to manage the influx of Ukrainian refugees into Poland.
Agents can’t handle the illegal-alien invasion at our own border with Mexico, yet Kyiv Joe will send them overseas to handle border trouble in Europe.
Americans can be forgiven if they think POTUS 46 has completely lost his marbles.
“Operation Ukraine Support”
“For the second time in a year, the Biden administration is seeking to divert Customs and Border Protection officers from the southern border crisis to an overseas conflict, this time to help process people fleeing the Russian assault on Ukraine,” John Solomon reported at Just The News.
Solomon obtained an internal memo that explains “Operation Ukraine Support”:
“The Office of Field Operations is seeking volunteers to assist with the possible evacuation of U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and their immediate family members from Ukraine,” the memo sent to field operations executives said.
“Eligible employees who volunteer for this situation may be selected to serve a temporary duty assignment in Poland to facilitate travelers for entry into the U.S., to include providing guidance and problems resolution to other government agencies.”
If an agent volunteers, he must be “ready to deploy ‘within 2-3 days’ of selection and should plan for about a month’s work overseas.”
Volunteers must provide a negative test for the China Virus, and either be vaccinated or have natural immunity from an infection.
And agents can expect to be worked to death handling the influx of Ukrainian refugees:
“Once deployed employees are expected to perform all assigned duties and may be required to work irregular shifts and schedules, up to seven days per week including holidays and weekends,” the memo cautioned, offering volunteers overtime pay.
At the U.S. Border With Mexico
Whether Kyiv Joe will conscript border agents for the duty if an insufficient number of agents volunteer we don’t know.
We do know what’s happening at the border with Mexico, where those agents are needed. And we do what Biden has done since he took office. He opened the border, and declared that he would not enforce U.S. immigration law. Central Americans got the invitation and marched north in droves.
The latest from the border CBP is supposed to protect is shocking. Some 220,000 illegals have slipped past border agents since October 1, the beginning of fiscal 2022.
As well, Biden and his Homeland Security secretary, Alejandro Mayorkas, have released almost more than 250,000 to disappear into the country since October.
Total loose in the country just in the last few months: Nearly 500,000.
Also since October, border agents have handled almost 700,000 “migrants,” either captured when they jumped the border or landed at ports of entry.
Since February 1, the first full month of Biden’s presidency, agents have handled more than 2.1 million illegals.

Solomon observed that “Operation Ukraine Support” is the second such deployment of agents desperately needed in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and California.
During his disastrous pullout of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, he also sent them to Afghanistan to process Afghan refugees, at least 50 of whom, because “poor Defense Department” vetting, were major security risks. Biden ordered U.S. officials on the ground to pack planes with as many Afghans as possible, vetting regardless. Rape, sexual assault, and child sex abuse have been the result.
Biden isn’t likely to hire more agents to police the U.S. frontier with Mexico given his administration’s main priority: bring in as many illegal aliens as possible to become Democrat voters and cement permanent power for the radical left.
