CBP agents arrested 13 Chinese illegal aliens they found being smuggled on a boat near Key Largo, Florida. There were 22 illegal aliens on that boat, 13 Chinese, eight Hondurans, one Dominican, and a human smuggler. They were tracked by a CBP aircraft that was on patrol. Todd, I've got about 30 seconds left here. You mentioned that secure border. It's pretty much locked down. I haven't seen this before with Chinese trying to get in through Florida. That's an area typically for the Cubans, the Haitians, the Dominicans. What do you make that these Chinese nationals are going so far out of the way to try to get into Florida of all places? That just shows you right there the success and the great work that the men and women of CBP, Border Patrol, you know, Customers of Border Protection are out there doing, right? The border is locked down. You can't get in there anymore. And they're going to find extreme measures. What really worries me is now you see military-aged males and females in that photo from the PRC that are coming across our waterways. It really shows that we need cooperation across the board with the Coast Guard, all Department of Homeland Security, and D.O.W. to make sure that not only we protect our land border, but we're protecting our sea border as well because this just shows that human smugglers and potential foreign terrorist organizations will go to any extreme to go penetrate our borders. Yep, and CBP put out a statement saying if they try it, if they go in the water, they will be found, they will be caught, they will be arrested, they will be deported.
