The National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) drew a stark contrast between how former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden treat border patrol agents, declaring Trump shows agents “respect” while “Biden falsely accuses them of crimes.”
The union, which notes it represents some “18,000 Border Patrol Agents and support personnel assigned to the U.S. Border Patrol,” took to X on Thursday to lay out the “difference” between Biden and Trump.
President Trump treats BP agents with respect, supports their mission and listens to their ideas.
Biden falsely accuses agents of crimes, burned the border to the ground and only listens to his radical leftist base.
See the difference?

“President Trump treats BP agents with respect, supports their mission and listens to their ideas,” a post from the union’s official account reads. “Biden falsely accuses agents of crimes, burned the border to the ground and only listens to his radical leftist base. See the difference?”
The union seems to be referencing Biden’s allegation in 2021, in which he “falsely accused Del Rio Sector Border Patrol Unit agents of using horses to run over migrants and strapping them from horseback,” as Breitbart News Texas’s Bob Price and Rady Clark previously wrote.
The contrast comes as the two likely November presidential nominees spar on the campaign trail with dueling stops at the U.S. Southern border in Texas Thursday as the issue takes the spotlight in the early stages of the general election. Trump will visit Eagle Pass, and Biden will be in Brownsville. The president only announced he was going to the border after Trump’s plans were public.

Even as Joe Biden finally pays a token visit to the border amidst his increasingly disastrous border crisis, the Border Patrol Union had a few choice words for the senile meanderer-in-chief, especially compared to his predecessor.
While the National Border Patrol Council (also called Border Patrol Union on social media) reportedly lent lukewarm support to controversial and problematic bipartisan border legislation, calling it “far better than the status quo,” the Union does not want Biden to weaponize its name to gin up support for the Democrats’ plans. As both Biden and GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump head to the border on Feb. 29, the Union had a message for the former: “Attention President Biden: Keep our name out of your mouth today.”
That wasn’t all. The Border Patrol Union had both sarcastic mockery and serious complaints to fire at Biden on Twitter/X.
“In an effort to invigorate him for his border visit, WH staff reportedly tells Biden that Brownsville is a new ice cream flavor,” the Union joked, referring to Biden’s destination in Texas, where Reuters reported that Biden planned to blame Republicans for his border crisis. Trump, meanwhile, went to Eagle Pass, Texas, long considered an epicenter of the illegal alien influx.
According to House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green (R-Tenn.), “President Biden’s choice to visit one of the slowest sectors of our Southwest border makes it abundantly clear that he cares far more about optics than actually addressing this historic, self-inflicted crisis.”
Green added, “According to reports, the White House canceled a trip to the Tucson [Ariz.] Sector earlier this week, where Border Patrol agents are encountering upwards of 2,000 inadmissible aliens every single day. This is far more than the 300 encounters on average in Brownsville.”
In major Biden Admin foreign policy achievement, Mexican cartel thugs agree to provide 3 illegal aliens at the border in Brownsville for WH photo op.
