How to use patrol in a sentence?

  1. House Republican:

    It certainly looked like a ‘Trump effect.’ Within weeks of Donald Trump’s arrival at the White House in January 2017, the number of people caught crossing America’s southern border illegally fell to a 17-year low of 11,127. John Kelly, then secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), attributed the drop to Mr. Trump’s executive orders on immigration.Elaine Duke, the department’s deputy secretary, gave credit to better enforcement of immigration laws. Mr. Trump hailed it as ‘a historic and unprecedented achievement.’ If such an effect did exist, it appears to have been short-lived. On April 5th, the DHS announced that Border Patrol agents apprehended 37,393 people in March, an increase of more than 200% on the previous year. The number of unaccompanied children caught entering illegally jumped by 300%, and the number of families detained while attempting the journey surged by nearly 700%.’.

  2. Donald Trump:

    An all concrete Wall was NEVER ABANDONED, as has been reported by the media, some areas will be all concrete but the experts at Border Patrol prefer a Wall that is see through( thereby making Border Patrol possible to see what is happening on both sides). Makes sense to me !

  3. Brandon Judd:

    Border Patrol officials's the largest I've ever heard of.

  4. Mark Morgan:

    An illegal immigrant doesn't get the vaccine and they're released, a border patrol agent doesn’t get the vaccine and they’re removed. On what planet does that make sense?

  5. Graham Colton:

    People … [who are] pretty well off in Venezuela. … I can understand wanting to come to America, but at the end of the day, our Border Patrol agents are being denied the ability to police the border because they're processing agents.
