DHS boss hints admin may close 'gaps' on border Thursday, April 8, 2021 | Chad Groening (OneNewsNow.com) Spanish Faced with a record-breaking surge of illegal aliens that are overwhelming the southern border, the Biden administration might “plug” gaps in the miles of border fence in an attempt to slow the flood of illegals and drug smugglers. According to The Washington Times, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials were told by their boss, the secretary of Homeland Security, that border wall construction might commence to address weak areas that are being exploited. The story cited notes from the meeting, which were reviewed by the Times, after DHS boss Alejandro Mayorkas sat down with ICE employees and one of them apparently raised the issue of border security.
