The Investigation of Those ‘Horrible’ Border Patrol Agents on Horses Has Vanished

Way back on Sept. 24, President Joe Biden finally paid attention to the southern border when he displayed anger at hard-working U.S. Border Patrol agents, vowing that they “will pay” — for something that did not occur.

“It was horrible what — to see, as you saw — to see people treated like they did: horses nearly running them over and people being strapped. It’s outrageous. I promise you, those people will pay,” Biden hyperbolically rambled. “They will be — an investigation is underway now, and there will be consequences. It’s an embarrassment. But beyond an embarrassment, it’s dangerous; it’s wrong. It sends the wrong message around the world. It’s simply not who we are.”

Three days prior, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told MSNBC, “We need this resolved swiftly. I anticipate that the results of the investigation will be available by the end of next week and I’ve committed to making the results public.”

The next day, the embattled Mayorkas informed Congress that the investigation would soon conclude, claiming, “I want to assure you that we are addressing this with tremendous speed and tremendous force. The facts will drive the action we take. It will be completed in days, not weeks.”

That was six long weeks ago.
