Friday, U.S. #BorderPatrol Agent Jauregui stood in the middle of the road at Scheurbach (Butterfly Park Dr) & Military, to create his own immigration checkpoint. There, he blocked our staff, in the company vehicle, from passing. 🧵 He stopped & questioned them about their citizenship, jobs, etc. You have to love the way this Mexican-American agent assumes our employees must be "janitors."

We suspected TX National Guard did this to push immigrants onto our neighbor's property, where they have an agreement authorizing them to enter and enforce state statutes. 2: We repaired the breach & placed thorny branches there, only to find this TX National Guard soldier trespassing on our property--where they have no authority to enter--and stopping to check the very spot where someone cut our fence just a few days before.
