Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that he was “horrified” by recent images of U.S. Border Patrol agents on horseback confronting Haitian migrants along the Rio Grande River.Mayorkas said, “I too was horrified by the images captured by photographers with respect to the activities of Border Patrol agents of horseback. We do not condone. We do not tolerate any mistreatment of any migrant. What we did is we directed an immediate investigation of the events captured in the photographs and on video. I have ensured that the top leadership of the office of professional responsibility lead that investigation and that it be conducted thoroughly

We are horrified by mayorkas's control or lack of it of the border. He should be impeached

Of course they are horrified. But they sit on their rear ends and do nothing. That is the Democrat party in a nutshell.

Seriously, do we need anyone in charge of anything who is “horrified” by the sight of a horse? More distraction.....the horse was the only shiny squirrel in the neighborhood he could point to. Never mind the 1 million criminal aliens who will be joining us this year. Where do we get such men?

I have watched enough "cowboy" shows to understand what he was doing. My, Lord, these people are STUPID. I guess they need to binge watch "Rawhide". Let Clint educate them. We are being governed by a bunch of inept clown boobs.

The horses being ridden by the officers are cutting horses, bred from quarter horses, who have especially good handling abilities.
Cutting horses 'cut' individual cows out from the herd. And the long reins are used to direct the horse.

For as long as I've been alive - - NYC Police have used horses to control crowds. Even at this moment - - horses are being used at the feckless UN Assembly.
Maybe Alejandro should head to First Avenue - - and start taking manure samples.

They didn't seem to be horrified about the Afghanistan evacuation, with Biden stranding Americans and about 200 people dead, including 13 of our military personnel.

Here's your chance Texas. Call these b*stards out. Have a press conference today with your border patrol. The first words should be "This is a horse."

Would he prefer that the border patrol shoot them? Cause they arent likely to run many of them down on foot.

Know whats really horrifying? 10,000+ illegal invaders walking across our southern border, setting up a giant camp under a bridge, and our federal government doing nothing to stop it; then transporting the illegals further into the country and setting them free! That is horrifying! Mean looking horses are the least of the problems!

And Mr. Mayorkas, I am horrified at the stupidity that infects everyone in Washington DC. Donald Trump was correct when he said most of the large government departments should be moved OUTside the city limits of DC.....way, way, miles and miles outside DC.

They have eyes but blind themselves to the human suffering THEY CREATED--ALL BY DESIGN.
JoeBamaBiteMe's tyranny via his puppet masters is clearly being hidden from the public, so they have to MAKE UP some issue that they focus on ("fake news") instead of what is clearly in front of them!
The American People are not that stupid and gullible-- that is why they have to cheat and trick us and propagandize U.S.

I understand Kamala's views on this story though. Her family owns slaves and I am sure they used whips. Therefore she understands using whips.

I’m sure he was really horrified when 7 children were blown up by a rushed drone strike because old schmoe needed some “i’m acting decisively” news.
No? Perhaps he’s Selectively Horrified by things that further the Dimokkkrap agenda.

You can 'tolerate' an unarmed civilian being deliberately shot and killed by the Capitol Police in cold blood? Or does the fact that she was a citizen and a patriot make her fair game? The hypocrisy is cringe producing!

I think the US should patrol the border with several thousand of the remote controlled robots the Israelis used to kill the Iranian nuclear scientist.

Shocked, absolutely shocked that men on horseback are defending our border. In any other country they would be facing machine guns. This Mayorkas guy is nothing more than a piece of human garbage. A freakin commie who hates his own country. No one person in the whole Biden administration is a true American. Then again, not one democrat, voter or politician, is a true American. Pure scum.

Just a little less than two hundred years ago, the US Army was chasing Cochise and the Apaches through that same territory, slaughtering every warrior, their wives and children like they were cattle and it was their land. Chasing a skinny Haitian on foot is probably beyond the capabilities of most overweight government cops. Besides, choosing a Homeland Security Chief with an hispanic name is not the brightest of moves if you are serious about homeland security.

I'm horrified that this snowflake doofus is horrified. In the left's tiny brains they conjure up visions of blacks herded up like cattle or worse ropes in the hands of men with 'white rage'. See where this is going? I see pictures of this and I feel bad for the border agents to have to confront these invading criminals using only methods that work without harming the 'nice visitors'.

When the Border Patrol Agents have had enough of this fraudulent Biden crew they should all just go home and self quarantine themselves for fourteen days. It really would not make any difference as the Biden crew would still be waving as many migrants (illegal aliens) as possible into the USA. The only thing that would be missing would be all the extraneous paperwork that the Biden crew has had the Border Patrol creating that they call processing, instead of the Border Patrol patrolling the borderline, arresting, and removing illegal aliens from the USA, as the immigration laws provide. By now it is clear that the Biden crew has been ignoring the immigration laws, and instead of following the law, has been intent in flooding the USA with as many poor and uneducated illegal aliens as possible, legalizing them in accordance with proposed “path to citizenship” amnesties, and transforming them into future leftist and socialist Democrat voters in the years ahead.

This is the next big hoax which the left will whip until it’s dead.
Horses are used in DC all the time - for regular patrolling and for crowd control. Horses can go where police cars sometimes can’t. The National Park Police use horses as do the Metropolitan Police. Not sure about the Capitol police.
We once had a thoroughbred former race horse who was injured on the track. When we got him he was a bag of bones and covered in ticks but we nursed him back to health and then donated him to the DC Metro Police. He was 18 hands high which translates to really tall - I had to climb onto a fence to get on his back as the mounting block was not high enough. Hence he was perfect for crowd control. As far as we know, he is still patrolling the streets of DC.

I own two American Quarter Horses, trained for cutting and sorting, and keep them on my home place. Contrary to many "expert" opinions I've been seeing the past two days, controlling a good working horse does not require brute force (lashing with land violently tugging on long, split reins) but is way more subtle. Most non-horse people are unaware of the concept of "neck reining" where the rider applies a gentle touch of a rein against the neck opposite of the desired direction of turn. A corresponding signal is given with knee pressure such that it appears that the horse is reading the mind of the rider rather than the notion that the rider must vigorously lash and pull a horse into turning. While I'm too rickety for rodeo events, my ten year old Palomino mare is savvy enough that once she knows which calf needs to be separated out and kept segregated from a herd, an experienced rider can guide her with the lightest of touch, if any touch is needed at all.
As far as illegal anybodies who are not obeying lawful orders to cease their criminal behavior, I'm OK with whacking them with an axe handle or a broadsword, whatever is necessary.

Del Rio is a town of only 35,000, It was once quite famous as a Law and Order place, in fact the Only "Law west of the Pecos". Now? The border is so open under Biden/Harris/My-Yorkies-azz that 15,000 illegal border invaders send for Doordash, delivered from Mexico, along with cases of beer to wash it down.
Several of the people interviewed stated that they paid $12,000 each to be delivered there by Cartel Human Traffickers, that works out to $180MILLION, compounded by whatever OUR daily cost is now to corral them, then multiplied by whatever our long term costs are going to be to transport them, feed them, house them, provide them medical care, education and Legal Defense. Our current policy is to attract and then support a continuing International Criminal enterprise, this was PLANNED by someone, likely funded from within the USA Govt, or at least NGOs, as a Criminal enterprise the NSA/CIA/Homeland should have all of the web/phone/banking access they need to track down and solve this Invasion/insurrection...instead they are tasking investigators to prosecute horseback defenders that THEY THEMSELVES ordered to be sent there, called off from other sectors. At the same time they have stopped ALL vehicle inspections at the 6 major crossings/highways into the US, where 40,000+ vehicles now pass through every single day.
A simple fence could have stoppered this 'sidewalk' across the border, even just a 30ft long section across that sidewalk, or just a couple of agents telling people to go back.
They are arresting and prosecuting US Border agents, not a SINGLE human trafficker caught and prosecuted has been mentioned to the News..

just last weekend on an "Emergency basis" 10,000 police from every branch of the Federal govt(including BP/ICE) were deployed to DC, along with 1.5miles of "Scale proof Fencing" erected in just 2 days, with 5,000 National Guard troops deployed in reserve...to corral approx 200 polite, law abiding US citizens (deemed a "Critical Threat") that gathered of a mere 2 hrs, while THIS was left wide open.

Doesn't the Border Control work for the Executive--ie, the DHS and ultimately, the President? I guess Mayorkas is horrified at himself.

Thanks, #35. While I have ridden a good bit, in the last 40+ years it has been all on other people's horses. I know neck reining, and am comfortable on a horse all day, even in rough mountain terrain, but no kind of expert, for sure. But I do know how it works, and really appreciate watching a good horse and rider working cattle.
As you say, whipping the horse is no part of the process. And nobody can ignore a horse coming at them, they are going to move.
