A frustrated Border Patrol agent said the Harris-Biden administration has turned his job into a migrant concierge service — and he fears that the crisis at the besieged southern border is only going to get worse.
Zachary Apotheker, who has been a Border Patrol agent since 2020, told The Post that he misses what his job used to be — busting big drug loads, apprehending illegal crossers and protecting Americans.
“I don’t want to bring people into the country. That’s not what I signed up to do,” Apotheker, 31, said.
The agent, who has worked at both the southern and northern borders of the US, confessed that he has witnessed the mass catch-and-release of illegal migrants he says have been improperly vetted under President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Since January 2021, more than 8 million migrants have crossed the southern border — including killers, rapists, terrorists and gang members, such as those from the violent Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua.
