Brandon Darby Urges Leaders to Visit Border ‘Breitbart Style,’ Experience What Agents See and Feel
The importance of political leaders traveling to the border to take the “Breitbart Border Tour,” was the topic Breitbart Texas Managing Director Brandon Darby discussed when joining Stephen K. Bannon and Alex Marlow on Breitbart News Daily. He said the unannounced, no law enforcement, dangerous tour in the darkness, no physical barrier to the “fricken beheading ISIS-like” Los Zetas Cartel, is designed to let politicians see and feel what Border Patrol agents feel. Darby said the tour was no “Potemkin Village.” The interview focused on the impact of an open border on the nation as a whole and came during a border tour with Paul Nehlen. Nehlen is from Wisconsin and is challenging House Speaker Paul Ryan in the Republican primary. Nehlen first used the term “Potemkin Village” in connection to political tours of the border. Darby also recently took another congressional candidate on a tour, Lubbock Mayor Glen Robertson, as reported by Breitbart Texas. Darby said it is critical for our leaders or prospective leaders to talk to the men and women who work day and night to protect this country. He said they also need to do more than just see the fancy dog and pony show conducted by Border Patrol executives for VIPs.
