I can't say enough about the importance of your book. You have laid out bare your experience, your vulnerabilities, and the (now unsurprising) corruption of the border patrol - so easy to draw a straight line from what you saw and experienced years ago to what we are seeing happen live on streets like in LA with ICE. Thank you so much for putting yourself out there, being such a serious and smart observer and reporter.

You just took my breath away. It has been difficult to get my book out there. Those on the right hate it bc it is the truth abt the Border Patrol. Those in immigration rights hate it bc they do not want to support a former agent. The anger is understandable.

For eunuchs, the woman has no appeal. Surgically removing the offending part is a reasonable consequence for unreasonable violence against women and children. All acts of sexual harassment are violence.

Thank you for courageously sharing your personal experience to expose the grotesque misconduct within the U.S. Border Patrol.

Thank you for sharing your story. Unfortunately I understand too well everything you’ve described. Not the same job, but the same type of hazing. Same type of mother too actually. Wishing you continued healing. 💕

I'm so proud of the work you're doing now, it's so necessary especially these past few weeks. There were quite a few sections I had to take a rest and come back to so I could finish listening. I wish I was more surprised. I'm sorry that toxic shit happened to you or anyone.

Women. Or girls. Can you call us women? “Female agent” is a legit term. Females makes us sound like animals
