Knife-wielding Tren de Aragua gang members are mobbing border crossings at El Paso, Texas, in an attempt to break into the US — and have said they will attack border guards who try to stop them, according to a shocking Texas law enforcement memo leaked to The Post.
Last week, 20 of the Venezuelan gangbangers — armed with blades, tire irons and broken liquor bottles — tried to force their way into the US at a border gate, the missive from the Texas Department of Public Safety read. Another attempt to break through is expected on New Year’s Day, the memo warned.

The brutal prison gang is becoming increasingly desperate to salt more members into the US before President-elect Donald Trump takes over, said Victor Avila, a retired agent for Homeland Security Investigations.
“You’re seeing that violence at the border because they know that it’s going to change in 27 days. It’s going to change. It’s going to be different, and they’re going to be sought after,” he told The Post.

Texas authorities were alerted to the gangbangers’ attempts to force their way into the US by an anonymous informant, who said the violent border break-ins by the gang “would continue every night” around 3 a.m.

The tipster said the gang intends to “cause harm” to the Texas National Guard soldiers who are stationed there — “especially when they are left alone with no agents” to help them.

A Texas law enforcement source told The Post that “gunfire has picked up big time” along the El Paso border in recent days, adding that authorities have also had to fire more pepperballs at groups trying to breach the border.

DPS didn’t immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.

The renewed violence is centered just a few miles down the border wall from where The Post witnessed a violent El Paso border riot on March 21.

In that assault, more than 200 illegal migrants broke through razor wire and dashed to the wall. Some of them brutally assaulted Texas National Guard soldiers in the melee.

I don't know why we aren't using lethal force yet to protect the border.

Under Bidens watch it seems we have lost more border patrol than under any other president in history...

U.S. Border Patrol Fallen

As of December 7, 2022 the U.S. Border Patrol has suffered 153 fallen. See their names and stories here.

They ought to be using lethal force. .

Yes when things like this occur lethal force is justified in my opinion. The problem will be women and children will be pushed to the front to take the bullets. Thats why a wall is necessary. The new tactics will be to rush the border in a hail of bullets and America.made to be turned into the bad guy as soon as a child is killed and the call for allowing illegals to just come in will begin.

The pressure should be put on Mexico to solve this. If they want one more dime from us or the continuance of aly trade agreements then they need to take responsibility for ending this on their side of the border.

Per the OP title, has any knife and tire-iron attack actually occurred?

Without seeing this memo, it's hard to tell if these 'attempts' were recorded by Border Patrol or asserted by this anonymous informant.

As far as I can tell the NYP is the only press site reporting this. I only found one other report and it was just referencing the NYP article. If there have been actual attacks I'm fairly certain that at least one other news agency would report it.

So says the Texas Department of Safety. You could contact them if you doubt their information.

There are zero reports\articles\memos regarding Tren De Aragua attacks at the border on the DPS website. The NYP is the only site reporting this and they do not link to this "missive" from DPS.

Sounds like...

Fake News.

Governments organizations have all kinds of documents that they do not post on their websites. It is folly to assume those documents don't exist.
I was involved in a case where the New York Times posted a quotation that they said was from a leaked document. I filed Freedom of Information Act requests on the subject and called the federal government. I was told, to paraphrase, that the media prints all kinds of things that are not true. The government never acknowledged the document existed. Based on my observations I believe the New York Times was telling the truth in that case, but I can't prove it. The New York Post broke this story, which you can find elsewhere in the media. It seems ridiculous for such a small story that someone would risk their career and make up a story that they received a document.

Where? I've looked. This NYP article is the only one about this. No other news agency is reporting this. DPS is not reporting this. The only other article I found was just referencing the NYP article. Are you telling me that the ruby-red state of TEXAS, who's governor and senators have publicly and vocally supported the anti-immigration, border "invasion" narrative incessantly pushed by the Right would hide or bury something like this? Please post links to other media sites reporting this that don't reference the NYP post or that have a link to the "missive" from DPS.

No it doesn't. People make up things all the time to advance their various agendas.

To fabricate the existence of a document is quite the exception in journalism because they would lose their job. Journalists can twist and turn just about anything to promote their agenda without having to fabricate the existence of a document. Just saying. We are all entitled to our own opinions.

To fabricate the existence of a document

I have no problem accepting the memo exists, but...

"Without seeing this memo, it's hard to tell if these 'attempts' were recorded by Border Patrol or asserted by this anonymous informant."

In the absence of any other news of these knife and tire iron attacks on government agents, I have to believe it's the latter.

Likewise, I don't necessarily dismiss the existence of the memo. I am, however, extremely skeptical of the NYP's interpretation of whatever that memo actually said.
