What's Florida Highway Patrol doing at the Mexico border?

News 6 just returned from the Mexico border, where troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol were seen taking part in Operation Lone Star, an initiative launched by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in 2021 to combat illegal immigration.

I think it’s better for states to use their tax payer money on this instead of using it to support illegal migrants.

[DiegoCastillo-dg]

paying those cops is cheaper than paying each family, gang members, cartel, spy's and everyone that comes in illegally.

I think its great! Its about time We the People spent our tax money on Americans for Americans!

[Itsasecret]

I’ll gladly pay offices to sit there and be a deterrent all day!

[WilliamLaakkonen]

As a Floridian, this report is a bit ridiculous

As a Floridian, I don’t mind my tax dollars securing the border…. Good job state troopers.

Glad that other states are helping Texas because the federal government isn't doing anything

[DKisOk]

At Last!!! Our taxes are actually being used to protect OUR citizens!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂🎉🎉🎉

[frankensteinmotors]

my TAX PAYER MONEY IS FINALLY BEEN WELL SPENT in something that we actually need since the Federal Government is not doing $hit I'm glad our money is been spent to stop this madness.

Is this supposed to get Floridians mad or laugh at this reporter's anger? As a Florida resident I would happily contribute to that cause. Living in a different state doesn't mean we live in a different country.

Wish my state would help in Texas. They are too busy taking names off our ballots before voting day.

[jameslamorgese]

It's not just to protect Texas it's to protect the whole country get it right

3000 to 3 a day... sounds like it's working dude what's the problem?

[heavymetallabrat]

I love how this is portrayed like its a possible criminal investigation by a brave news station. Thank you to every state helping seal up the border and kick out the cartels. This news station needs to figure out its priorities.

[mkngtx]

Damn this dude sounds like he’s against FHP assisting Texas .

[virginiaswafford]

Good for them !!!! Joie wont do anything about it thank you Ron DeSantis for your help.

[tyrannyterminator]

When the federal government fails to perform their obligated duty….states are having to step up and perform the job of others….

[RDC_Autosports]

if you wanna do real journalism start asking why it’s harder to bored a plane for US citizens then it is for illegals to just walk in this country…

[MrVallejo]

And that’s what we do when Federal Government goes rogue.

The border is more of a problem than FL. speeders.
