I am Border Patrol Agent Zach Apotheker. Just one day after my appearance in @JamesOKeefeIII film "Line in the Sand," now streaming on the @TCNetwork ,my government-issued firearm was revoked. The reason? Alleged breaches of security and integrity policies.
But here's the stark contrast: while I'm rendered weaponless, thousands of illegal alien convicted murderers and rapists, as openly admitted by the Department of Homeland Security @DHSgov , remain at large and free.
I took an oath to defend our Constitution and to protect the American public. This has been the greatest honor of my life. Yet, when you're truly over the target, you become the target.
The division chief wouldn't even print his name on this decision - a telling detail, isn't it?
Let me be clear: Policy does not supersede the Constitution. I am mentally sound, and my resolve to protect and serve remains unshaken. They may have taken my firearm, but my duty stands firm.
Isaiah 54:17 -No weapon formed against you shall prosper
God Bless America ✝️🇺🇸

**🚨 Sounding the Alarm on Border Security: A Thread 🧵**
1/1 Imagine this: You're a Border Patrol Agent, sworn to protect, but what you're seeing at the border is beyond alarming. So I decided to speak out and was served a cease and desist. Here's the reality:
- **Women in peril**: American women are being raped and murdered by people encountered by Border Patrol and brought into the country through NGOs receiving taxpayer funds.
- **Criminal benefits**: Gang members are getting perks meant for our war heroes and citizens.
2/2 Meanwhile, **Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens was enjoying a fiesta in Mexico** with Francisco Javier Gonzalez, the grandson of Don Julio, smoking a big long cigar at the Tequila Casa de los González, his family’s distillery complex, not a care in the world:
- With him, the likes of Gloria Chavez, RGV Sector Chief, having a grand old time.
Oh, and by the way, Mexican-American businessman Eduardo Garza, who owns Uni-Trade, which advises international companies on “global transportation, foreign trade and customs,” hosted Border Patrol officials at his ranch in Laredo, Texas, for three events and hosted a smaller group of officials in Mexico for two other events, sources say.
When confronted with this issue, the excuse was: Our great leaders were creating a tequila brand for Border Patrol's 100-year anniversary.
Meanwhile, suicide is at an all-time high, and the one thing leadership tells agents not to do is over-consume alcohol. Clearly, leadership doesn’t care about the country or agents, only themselves. Sickening.
3/3 I met with Senator Ron Johnson. His solution? Maybe a letter. Is that how we fix a broken border and broken leadership?
