84 Illegal Aliens Discovered in Back of Tractor Trailer at Border Town in Texas

Joe Biden’s America.

84 illegal aliens were discovered in the back of a tractor trailer this week in Hidalgo County, Texas.

The smugglers used TikTok to try to recruit drivers for their human trafficking operation.

The smugglers offered $70,000 to “someone who can drive an 18 wheeler right now” – someone should tell the traffickers that Joe Biden used to drive an 18-wheeler!

“That is why we are experiencing an increase in human smuggling events along the border,” Texas DPS spox Christopher Olivarez told Fox News Digital. “Many individuals from larger metropolitan areas such as Austin, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, and even out of state are being recruited as drivers through social media platforms to smuggle illegal immigrants.”

Fox News reported:

Hidalgo County sheriff’s deputies located 84 migrants on Thursday afternoon as they unloaded from a tractor trailer just 12 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border in south Texas.

A concerned citizen originally reported the tractor trailer near a residence about 15 miles east of downtown McAllen.

Sheriff’s deputies and Border Patrol responded to the scene and took the migrants into custody. Pictures released by Hidalgo County Sheriff Eddie Guerra show dozens of migrants on the ground in what appears to be a residential area.

Cartels have turned to social media in other states as well. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., introduced a bill last week that would crack down on cartels’ use of various platforms to recruit people for human trafficking operations.

“Cartels recruit teenage Arizonans to support smuggling and trafficking near our border – luring them into dangerous and illegal activities for easy cash that puts their lives and others at serious risk,” Sinema said in a statement.

Over the summer up to 50 migrants were found dead inside of a semi-truck in San Antonio in sweltering heat.

“These deaths are on Biden,” Texas Governor Abbott said in June. “They are a result of his deadly open border policies. They show the deadly consequences of his refusal to enforce the law.”

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that over 4.9 million illegals entered the United States during Joe Biden’s first 18 months in office via the open southern US border.

That is roughly the population of Ireland — crossing the open border into the US in 18 months.
