Democratic Del Rio, Texas mayor blasts White House, AOC as border crisis triggers school lockdown

The Democratic mayor of a Texas border town sounded off Monday, as illegal aliens continue to flood across the Rio Grande from Mexico, overwhelming Border Patrol and local authorities

"We had illegals attempting to traverse the perimeter fence at one of the local schools at the southern side of the city," said Lozano.  "The school had to go on lockdown to make sure the students were safe. They heard helicopters overhead. We saw state troopers and sheriffs and police responding to that incident." That event, and the ongoing crisis that has plagued the city with high-speed police chases, according to the mayor, is another reason he is calling out his own party's handling of the situation.
