Summary:
On November 18, 2025, a Border Patrol agent was filmed inside a large tent-style child detention facility in Texas. The facility appears crowded, and the agent is shown responding to questions about the situation. While the accompanying social media posts describe severe overcrowding and inhumane conditions, the footage only verifies the agent’s presence and the interior layout of a temporary child housing structure.
Full Description
The video shows one Border Patrol agent wearing a green uniform, black mask, and standard insignia for supervisory personnel. The environment appears to be a large temporary structure resembling CBP-operated overflow facilities used during high surges of child migrant arrivals.
The agent can be heard being asked whether conditions may worsen. His posture and responses suggest concern but he continues performing duties in the facility.
The video circulated widely, with captions making strong claims about trafficking risk and severe overcrowding, though these cannot be confirmed from the footage alone.
