President Donald Trump has kept his commitment to the American people and secured the border upon resuming office in January.

Although illegal crossings are significantly down to minuscule levels, four years of open borders under Joe Biden have taken a toll on the United States. Law enforcement agencies like the Texas DPS are constantly pursuing illegal aliens and making arrests. They work with federal agencies like the Border Patrol to make the country safer.

Texas DPS pursued a human smuggler carrying 10 illegal aliens in his vehicle in Webb County, in Laredo, earlier this month.

After taking troopers on a high-speed chase, the driver, Jorge Alonso Diaz Jr, crashed the vehicle he was driving, a Lincoln Navigator, into a commercial vehicle.

Diaz was arrested and charged with human smuggling with the likelihood of significant bodily injury and evading arrest with a vehicle.

Troopers handed over the 10 illegal aliens in the vehicle, along with a child, to the Border Patrol.

These kinds of pursuits are somewhat common for the DPS, considering the number of illegal aliens in Texas and throughout the country.

TGP reported earlier this month that DPS troopers were on a high-speed chase with a smuggler carrying illegals who were locked in a van.

Article IV, Section 4 of the United States Constitution gives the federal government the authority and responsibility to secure the border from invasion.

“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.” Article IV, Section 4 of the US Constitution.

The rule of law has been restored under President Trump.
