House Democrats on the Homeland Security Committee want to investigate the agents’ role in killing the shooter in Uvalde, reports Townhall. Agents from various agencies were ordered by local police to stand down. At the same time, the negotiator attempted to contact the killer. The Uvalde police appeared to believe the killer was barricaded and neutralized.
Members of the Border Patrol elite BORTAC team and Homeland Security Investigations agents eventually defied orders from Uvalde police to breach the classroom the shooter occupied. They risked their lives to save the lives of children and teachers.
Allegedly, information about 9-1-1 calls being made by children trapped with the shooter never got to Police Chief Arredondo.
THE LETTER
House Democrats on the Homeland Security Committee sent a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas asking him to explain the Border Patrol’s and Homeland agents’ role in the Uvalde response.
At the same time, they “commend the law enforcement personnel who responded to the shooting and acted to help save students and teachers and prevent further loss of life.”
“While details surrounding the horrific shooting at Robb Elementary School are still emerging, it has been reported that U.S. Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC) agents and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents brought this deadly incident to an end when they contravened local law enforcement’s decision not to engage and entered the classroom and killed the shooter,” the letter stated.
To better understand these important issues, we respectfully request a briefing on DHS’ approach to providing on-the-ground support to State and local law enforcement in these incidents and the steps the Department is planning to take in the wake of the Robb Elementary School massacre to help prevent violence in America’s schools, according to the letter to Secretary Mayorkas.
Why are they doing this? After the way they’ve treated border agents on horseback, we are suspicious.

why is it every time a shooting happens, leaders say ‘no more’ to deaths from gun violence. the ones committing these crimes are the ones who get the weapons from the underground! law abiding people fill out paperwork to own a weapon. thugs and bad folk DON’T fill out paperwork. All they do is laugh at the people that do the right thing. Until the democrats figured out a way to take the guns away from the thugs and criminals, don’t say a freaking thing to the law-abiding people that do the right thing. democrats and liberals who support the lawlessness are to blame and contribute to school mass shootings. It’s just my opinion. If the democrats supported the LAW, (not giving the thugs/criminals a slap on the hand), or letting them make bail at $500.00 a pop, and hold them to what the LAW said. Maybe then mass shooting would start to become fewer!.
Democrats are Liberals and almost all Liberals I know are at their core cowards. Democrats are terrified of Law and Order Conservatives who will “neutralize” Liberals who are a threat to society and don’t care about Teachers and Children who are not a threat to their agenda. Liberals are finally realizing that they are outnumbered and if they don’t stop pushing their insanity, Conservatives will Neutralize them by any means necessary. Liberals need to demonize and marginalize heroes who protect society in an attempt to survive. Liberalism will not survive in America. Just as in the past, Liberals have awaken The Silent Majority, but this time the The Silent Majority is also pissed them off! Any Politician supporting Gun Control will no longer have a career in politics. The People are not in a mood to be disarmed!
The Communists in The United States can not understand anything, because they are deaf, dumb and blind liars,corrupt immoral simple- minded fools, who believe that death and destruction are life and salvation, and that life and salvation are death and destruction,” who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, whut bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter”( Isaiah Chapter 5), who call lies TRUTH, and TRUTH lies, who call black white and white black, who call Satan JESUS, and JESUS, Satan, who call themselves- The children of the devil- “” Christians”” and call CHRISTIANS- THE CHILDREN OF GOD, the children of the devil.
The demonic communist democrats hate everything and everyone that upholds the law or saves the lives of children.
It’s impossible that the calls of the kids from the school did not get to the mayor and chief. Watch as the fake investigation reveals nothing. They already know the whole story, the timeline is not complicated. They are afraid of exposing their collusion and cowardice, so they avoid all public discourse. All I hear is silence.
The 911 people could easily be made to reveal that they notified officials of the calls. But there is a gag on the entire event. Even the residents are afraid to talk, it takes lots of power and fear to stifle everyone.
In the OK hospital shooting, cops arrived and immediately went after the shooter, the episode lasted under 5 minutes.
Americans are not able to grasp the situation properly. The border agents are not allowed to protect the USA, but they were heroes in this. Leftists want people to die until all guns are confiscated, they do not want cops to rescue people.
Do you notice this cluster of shootings up to the election and the gun control legislation? Graham has already indicated support.
I agree.
