Former Border Patrol Agent Has NEVER SEEN Illegal Immigration This BAD

Randy Clark was a Border Patrol agent for over 32 years, from the Reagan administration to the Trump administration. But he tells Glenn Beck that he has “NEVER” seen anything like the border crisis that President Biden “unleashed.” In fact, he admits that over the past 3 years of the illegal immigration surge, he has had “no advice to give Border Patrol agents I meet… I cannot tell them how to cope with this” because of how unprecedented it has been. Randy also weighs in on something just as concerning: Are we being told the full truth from either the Right OR Left about the border? This is the subject of the newest Blaze Originals documentary, “Texas vs. The Feds: How The Elites Use The Border Crisis Against Us.” Randy dives into one of the questions raised in the documentary: What was discussed at a secret meeting earlier this year between Secretary of State Alejandro Mayorkas and the President of Mexico? And how do the cartels fit into all of this?

GLENN: Welcome. I brought Jason Buttrill in. He is the chief researcher for the Glenn Beck Program. And also, the -- the head writer for Glenn TV on Wednesday night specials. Welcome.

JASON: Thanks, Glenn.

GLENN: We sent you down to the border, because there was the truckers, the Take Our Border Back convoy. And everybody was saying, it's Christian nationalism. And it wasn't Christian nationalism. And I knew that. You knew that. Because I knew some of the organizers. And I thought, there's no way, unless it's infiltrated.

So we sent you down with a camera crew. And the story turned out to be nothing. However, you came back a changed man.

JASON: I hate to say that I was completely black-pilled, but yeah.

STU: Yeah, it's a big change.

GLENN: Big change.

STU: He still doesn't have hair.

JASON: How dare you.

GLENN: It's not that -- but you came back and you were like, Glenn, I can't -- I have to show you. I can't even explain what I learned.

JASON: Well, I know that -- we all know that the government and the media all bend the immigration and border issue for their own purposes. They all game it.

It's too politically valuable for them.

So, you know, the media uses it. We saw that with the trucker convoy, like firsthand.

That's the very first thing we saw. But then, you remember that time?

It was kind of awesome to be a Texan at that time.

GLENN: But all of a sudden, Texas stood up.

JASON: We were flying our flags. We took the matter in our own hands, we're finally enforcing the law. It felt so awesome to be a Texan.

And it's incredibly hard to describe, without you, actually, seeing the video.

Without you seeing -- you know, the Shelby Park. How it was kind of taken. It's impossible to explain.

But that right there, is when I was like, oh, my gosh. I feel like we're being lied to, all across the border.

GLENN: Even on our own side.

JASON: That's the worst part.

GLENN: Yeah, I know.

Randy Clark is with us. He's a retired border patrol agent. He also writes for Breitbart.

And he was down on the border. And he's one of the guys that kind of black pilled you a little bit.

JASON: Randy Clark is old-school Border Patrol.

He -- you spend five minutes with him, and you are an expert. He's amazing.

GLENN: Randy, welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

RANDY: Thank you for having me, Glenn. Jason, good to hear you, brother.

JASON: You too.

GLENN: So, Randy, let's talk about a secret meeting that is in the docket tonight. A secret meeting. I guess it wasn't secret. We just don't what an they did, that happened with Antony Blinken, and the president of Mexico.

RANDY: So we know they sat down together in late December. Right about the time we were seeing, you know, just the hoards of people, coming into Eagle Pass. All of that imagery. And when it gets that bad.

That's when it becomes a big deal. Because that's when you get those folks from the media, that never report on the border.

That's when CNN is obligated to come, and other outlets that just really don't care whether the border is open or not.

They would rather see it open. That's when there's a problem. This was shut down within three days of that meeting, between Biden and everyone talking. And Blinken and Mayorkas sitting down.

Again, late December.

Within a few days, Eagle Pass was down to zero when the congressional visit came with close to 60-some-odd members of the Republican Party, including Speaker of the House.

You couldn't find anybody there. We had a handful of migrants come near the boat ramp, during their press conference. Where normally, by that hour of the day, we would have had 5,000. So this was awfully fast.

And nobody has taken credit for it, except really the state of Texas with some wire.

Because the Biden administration doesn't want to let you know, we could have done this three years ago.

GLENN: This is -- because I know what you're showing tonight.

And it is -- oh. It's -- you -- it's a punch to the gut.

It really is.

Tell me the -- when did Texas put the razor wire up?

Before or after this?

RANDY: So that razor wire has been up for several years now. They augmented it around January 11 when they seized the park. By that time, the park had been clear of most migrants for 11 days.

The problem is, this thing is still moving to the West. In other words, the country still has a problem with illegal immigration and open borders. And fentanyl.

It's -- the government of Mexico, their main objective was to stop those trains. The best system, they call it. It's the best. Those trains are almost void of any migrants, when they were bringing in daily, three to 5,000, into the parts of Texas. Mostly in Eagle Pass, as of late.

GLENN: So the drug cartel had to be involved, because the drug cartel runs everything.

And if they decided to shift, that's either a wild coincidence, after we meet with the president of Mexico.

Or they're involved.

RANDY: So the cartels have not stopped their part.

Where there is value, they are moving that. If you look to Lucedale, Arizona, where you see there are migrants across the globe coming in. That's where the cartel is making the bulk of their money on human smuggling. They have not stopped them.

GLENN: Yeah. But they have stopped or cut way back in Texas. Right?

RANDY: Well, if you see the got away numbers, they're still there. The sheriffs in South Texas. And the Texas Department of Public Safety.

They are still chasing cars in pursuit on the highways.

And that's when -- that's the hand of the cartel. Those are paying customers. We hide them. They're even hiding them from Mexico.

They're trying to get around those checkpoints in Mexico. Mexico is finding them in semi tractor-trailers just like the border patrol finds at their checkpoints. It's now a game of cat and mouse in Mexico with the cartels, like it is in the United States.

So the cartel is still trying to beat this Mexican government initiative, and they're doing it by moving West. Because that was not hindered. But they are moving more of their migrants to the West. And we see those numbers coming up, where Texas is remaining low. There are tens of thousands of soldiers, that Mexico has placed towards this endeavor.

If they just kicked the people off the trains. You can take away about 5,000 per day from the equation. So we're seeing that. We're seeing crossings of five to 6,000 a day, where we were seeing up to ten and 11 and 12 during December, right before the meeting, between Blinken, Mayorkas, and Obrador.

GLENN: I saw that yesterday it was reported that two people -- or a -- two groups of people were taking Ubers across the border. I don't know who would have done that.

But they're -- the cars were shot up. One person was killed. Because it was the cartel. Because they didn't ask permission to come across the border.

Is that universal, across the border?

RANDY: You know, it is universal. And that's really what's at stake, that we can't lose sight of. Is that this cartel.

They will make money doing whatever they can. Whether it's extortion, whether it's robbery, whether it's fentanyl, whether it's migrants.

And that's really why, I think we have to as conservatives, stay true to this matter, and let the public know what they face. Because this is a greater thing going on in the background.

We have a silent selection going on, in Mexico, that's going to happen in June.

The leading candidate is way more liberal than Obrador.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

RANDY: We're going to see the same feelings towards the cartel. The hugs, not bullets.

We will see that going on. We will face -- if we do not change in our election.

And we stay the course we're at right now, we will see an open border for years. And those 80,000 fentanyl deaths are going to continue or rise, because nobody will do anything about this cartel.

GLENN: Tell me about -- you know, they're bending over backwards to try to dismiss any crime coming from illegals, that are crossing over.

I mean, I just have to see, you know, some of the more heinous things that are going on right now.

Are coming from -- I mean, we have our own homegrown people. But we don't have to have the crime from people who shouldn't be here in the first place.

And the media doesn't seem to understand that.

And they're trying to make everybody understand, they're just good people coming over. Can you explain the -- the crime.

Is there any correlation, causation of the crime stats going up, beyond just reimagining the police.

RANDY: Well, there sure are. And not to paint migrants with a broad brush.

Because we know most are economic migrants. The problem is in the chaos. Just like when you saw in the Afghanistan withdrawal. In the highest chaos, you just cannot control, who gets on a plane. Who processes the border.

And even -- what -- wee we see now. Even a liberal media is poking fun at this. Almost as if it's funny, that people are getting killed at the hands of either drunk drivers, or strangled to death at a university. They're making light of that.

And what we see on the official side is, well, the only person responsible for that crime is the murder. Well, you hear that, because there was no gun.

If there was a gun. Well, then it would have been the gun.

This administration is not going to take any responsibility for what they have unleashed on America.

And I say unleashed, because I was in the Border Patrol, when Ronald Reagan was president.

And I left at the end of the Trump administration, in August of 2020.

Right at September.

This has never existed. What I have seen the last three years, I have no advice to give Border Patrol agents, I meet when I'm out on the job.

You know, they're just getting started, because I don't have experience. I spent 32 and a half years on the border patrol, I cannot tell them how to cope with this. Because we never saw it before.

I don't want folks to lose sight of this, that this is extremely dangerous. And you see the Democrat mayors, tapping out for a reason.

We have neglected every major immigration law or protection that we have in there. Such as public charge. Or public health issues. We have forgotten about everything.

And the crime, we have forgotten about as well.

Some of the gangs coming in from Venezuela.
They are masters at moving into other countries. They that did that when they left Venezuela.

They did that in Columbia. They did that in Peru. They know how to take over, the organized crime in that country.

And they do it with extreme violence. And I think we are going to see that, in some of our bigger sanctuary cities, coming up. These poor law enforcement that are already defunded in those areas, are not going to be able to cope with it.

GLENN: Yeah, America has never seen anything like Haiti before, and we are on that track.

Randy, thank you so much. I appreciate it. Thank you for all your help on the docket.

And informing us. And helping us to figure out what's really going on.

Thanks for everything that you do. And have done.

Randy Clark. You bet. Buh-bye.

GLENN: There's a difference between a revival and an awakening. We are in a revival right now, but that doesn't necessarily lead to anything. Except, oh, I have to re-learn those principles. But that doesn't mean you apply them in your life. Okay?

That's an awakening. There's been two great awakenings in American history. One brought us the American Revolution. The second one brought us the Civil War and the freedom of slaves.

We have the possibility of going into a third great awakening. That's the only thing that will save us. If you don't know the difference between a revival and an awakening. Let me give you the negative print of a godly awakening. Our kids right now, they don't have any purpose. They don't have any meaning.

They look at everything, and it doesn't -- it's not real. None of it is real. It's money. It's fame.

It's -- you know, it's ever changing truths and definitions. And they have no purpose in their life. Okay?

So they're looking for that. Because man has to have purpose in his life. Man has to search for meaning.

So they're searching for meaning. And they found a group of people that actually mean something. And they're willing to die for it. And it's ISIS.

And so they're like, at least these people believe in something. They believe it. And they're willing to die for it. I'm going to stand with them. And they put that twisted understanding into action. That's the -- that is -- that's an awakening. It's just an awakening to the dark side. And that one is already happening. It has to happen on the good side. And let me speak directly to young men: Look, you are inheriting a very loud, angry, cynical and worst of all spiritually starving and malnourished society. And you are being sold a future of cheap pleasures and hollow heroes and screens with blue light that just rob you of your strength, one distracted second after another.

And in the middle of all that noise, may I just give you one piece of instruction. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, of good report or praise-worthy, seek those things.

Don't admire them. Don't nod at them. Seek them!

Hunt them. Chase them. Build your life around those things. A man who will do that. A boy. A young man who will do that, will become different. Noticeably different.

He will stop letting the culture feed him garbage. He stops applauding the trivial. He stops laughing at the obscene or cheering for the cruel.

He will become a curator of -- of real, lasting beauty in an age that has forgotten what beauty even looks like.

When other men are chasing down or holding up cynicism, this man holds up hope!

When everyone around him is chasing dopamine, he chooses discipline. When others will blame their circumstance, he'll take responsibility for his own action. When the world worships the shallow, he goes and searches for the deep!

You want to know what the secret of becoming strong is, or becoming trusted, or becoming the kind of man that your future wife, your future children, your future nation can depend on?

Here it is!

You become what you seek. If you seek trash, you become trash. If you seek virtue, you become a man of virtue. You seek excellence, and your life will begin to shine, not loudly, but steadily. Like the steel glow of a blade being forged.

That's who you'll be.

The world has a plentiful, seemingly never-ending supply of angry boys. We don't need any more addicted boys.

We don't need any more distracted boys. The world needs men. Whole men. Clear-eyed men.

Men whose souls are anchored to something higher than the algorithms, trying to own them!

Build a life worthy of admiration. Forget about the applause. Fill your mind with words that make you wiser. Fill your days with work, hard work, that makes you stronger. Fill your home with beauty that lifts every soul who walks into it.

Have your home a place where people walk in and go, man, I say so great here. I just love it here. I don't know what it is about your house. I just love it. It's the spirit that's there! Because you built it! You protect it.

Protect your integrity like a watchman on the wall. Don't lie. Don't cheat. Don't steal. And when you fail, and you will, stand back up again.

Because a man who seeks the virtuous, is not a man who never fails. He just -- he just becomes a man who refuses to stay on the ground.

If you seek things that are lovely and pure, trustworthy, praiseworthy, you'll become a kind of man this age almost never produces. A man whose very existence is a rebuke to the darkness.

That's your calling. That's why you were born.

Not to be lost. Not to play video games. Not to give up. Not to say, there's no hope. Not to end up in the trash bin of human history because you've -- you've taken so many drugs, you can't stand up straight anymore.

You're not destined to be alone.

You were destined for great things. You are destined to find an amazing woman!

Believe me. I didn't think I would ever find an amazing woman. Because I didn't think I was worth it. I didn't think I was worth it.

And until I started understanding how God works. That, yeah. I'm not worth any of the stuff that I have.

When you realize, it's all a gift. It's all a gift. And even if you work your brains out, you may not ever get all the things that you want. But you're going to have everything you need. Once you realize, carefully selecting friends makes a difference. My mother used to always say, show me your friends. I will show you your future.

It's true. Be careful who you select as friends. Watch your language. Watch what you're putting into your brain and what's coming out of your mouth. Because the brain is so amazing. It's being turned to mush. Did you know that there is a new study that just came out. I have to tell you about it next week, maybe.

New study going out. It is -- it's AI. And it has access to social media, and they have found that the AI -- the AI that is scrolling through social media all day, just to keep updated on everything that's going on in social media. It's getting brain mush. It's actually becoming dumber. It's become less effective!

It's a machine. What do you think this, flesh and blood, this thing is going to do?

We say life is meaningless. And life is the only thing that has any value. And yet, we spend all of our time, on things like social media. And that has absolutely no value.

But we think that's life.

I'm not that smart. I've just lived a long time. And I've made so many mistakes.

And I decided at one point, I'm going to stop saying, it's somebody else's fault. I'm going to start saying. Maybe -- what did I do to create that?

What did I do to attract that?

Why does this thing keep happening to me?

Why is it that I always find myself involved with these same kind of people?

Because, Glenn, dummy, it's you!

What you think, it's like -- it's like think of yourself as a -- as a beacon. It's just -- you're a beacon. Your GPS pin, that is constantly saying, here I am. Here I am. Here I am.

Except, it's transmitting more than just your location. It's -- it's transmitting what you're looking for, who you are. And it's attracting other dropped pins to you. It's saying, "I like this. I think this way. I believe these things. I am afraid of these things."

Whatever it is, you're thinking. It's constantly putting that out.

And saying, here I am. Is there anything else like that?

Anything else that can reinforce that? Anything else that can live like this?

Because that's me. Here I am. Here I am. Here I am.

That's why you keep finding yourself in exactly the same situations. Nothing will change, if nothing changes!

And the only thing that you can change, is you!

Seek the things, that have virtue.

Seek the things, that have beauty in music, in -- in art, in life, in architecture, in clothing! Whatever it is. Look for real, lasting beauty and value.

Find the things that are true! Truly true.

Universally true. Find the things that uplift. Seek those things!

And you will change your life and your world!
