🚨🇺🇸 BORDER PATROL AGENT QUESTIONED OVER ROLE IN "LINE IN THE SAND" FILM
U.S. Customs and Border Protection has issued a memorandum to Border Patrol Agent Zachary Apotheker, demanding detailed answers about his involvement in the recently released "Line in the Sand" film.
The explosive documentary, produced by O'Keefe, provides a raw, first-hand look at the shocking reality of the U.S. border crisis.
Using hidden cameras and exclusive testimonials, the film reveals disturbing details about Mexican freight trains, cartel tunnels, and U.S. funded child detention camps - exposing a corrupted system that demands change.
Now, the government is questioning whether Apotheker participated in any filmed interviews or discussions for the film, and if he received any compensation or accessed confidential CBP information.
In response, Apotheker stated that the "only compensation I received and benefited from was a clean, free, clear conscience" because he "told the truth to the American people and fulfilled my duty to the Constitution."
He claimed to have the necessary approval "from the United States Constitution" and was "directed to do what I have done from the oath of office I took under God."
The memo also notes over 300,000 missing children that Homeland Security has been unable to identify, suggesting Apotheker may have received supervisory approval for his actions guided by his oath and the Constitution.

🧵 THREAD: THE 10 BIGGEST BLUNDERS IN THE 2025 SPENDING BILL
The 2025 Continuing Appropriations & Disaster Relief Act was drafted to avoid a shutdown, but it’s jam-packed with questionable spending that makes you wonder, “Wait, they’re paying for what?!”
Here are 10 of the wildest uses of taxpayer dollars in this bill. ⬇️
1. $30.78 BILLION FOR CROP & LIVESTOCK LOSSES
Disaster relief for farmers is essential, but this massive allocation for “necessary expenses” is so loosely defined it feels like a blank check.
It includes $2B for livestock losses, block grants to states, and even compensation for timber and poultry.
Sounds good, right?
Here’s the problem: there’s little oversight or clarity on how states will use these funds.
With $30.78B on the line, shouldn’t we know where the money is going? Feels like a recipe for inefficiency.
2. $42.5 MILLION FOR USDA RESEARCH BUILDINGS
In the middle of a spending crisis, the USDA gets $42.5M to upgrade research facilities.
Is upgrading labs important?
Sure.
But during a stopgap budget bill to avert a shutdown?
Maybe not the best timing.
When people hear "emergency spending," they probably think disaster relief or healthcare, not a new coat of paint on agricultural buildings.
This allocation could’ve waited—unless there’s some groundbreaking corn research we don’t know about.
🧵🇸🇾 10 MOMENTS THAT HAVE SHAPED SYRIA'S MODERN HISTORY
As Syrian history is being written with the advancement of Damascus, let’s dive into the 10 defining events in Syrian history leading up to this pivotal chapter in the nations history.👇
1/ The Sykes-Picot Agreement (1916)
France and Britain secretly carved up Ottoman lands during WWI. Syria was handed to France, despite promises of Arab independence made to local leaders.
This betrayal planted the seeds of distrust toward Western powers and set the stage for borders that still fuel conflict today.
2/ Independence from France (1946)
After years of colonial rule, Syria became independent.
But instead of unity, political instability reigned, with 20 coups in 24 years. Nationalism was strong, but finding a leader everyone could agree on?
Not so much. Independence came at the cost of cohesion.
