A top Border Patrol official has accused Jen Psaki and the White House of “perpetuating the narrative that police are bad” and pushing incorrect information after the press secretary responded to reports that border agents in Del Rio have been “whipping” Haitian migrants who had gathered there over the past week.

Speaking to The Epoch Times, Border Patrol agent and head of the National Border Patrol Council, Brandon Judd, said agents on horseback in the area have not been rounding up Haitian refugees with whips after they were accused of doing so by multiple media outlets and officials.
