There were 201,800 encounters between U.S. Border Patrol agents and illegal aliens along the southwest land border in April, according to data released by their office. April 2022 marked the highest number of detentions on record for the month. Border agents in Texas handled the highest volume, arresting an average of 4,260 illegal immigrants per day. In Victoria, along the upper Gulf Coast in Texas, Stephen Diebel and his family have been ranchers for five generations. Even 186 miles from the Mexico border, he has experienced issues with property damage from illegal border-crossers….
