Texas DPS on High-Speed Chase Against Human Smuggler Transporting Six Illegal Aliens, Ends with PIT Maneuver (VIDEO) * The Gateway Pundit * by David Greyson

President Trump kept his promise to seal the border when he resumed office in January 2025. Since then, illegal border crossings have been down over 99 percent.

The previous four years under Biden’s open border policy resulted in an estimated 15 million illegal aliens entering the country. This crisis has kept law enforcement agencies like the Texas DPS constantly working to arrest illegals and smugglers.

Texas DPS went on a high-speed chase with a human smuggler carrying six illegal aliens earlier this week in Maverick County.

After the DPS trooper used a PIT maneuver to stop the vehicle, which was a Jeep Grand Cherokee, the smuggler, Yoisdelvis Nunez Acosta, made an attempt to hide in the brush but was captured. He was reported to be from Cuba.

DPS troopers also found another vehicle involved in the smuggling operation acting as a scout vehicle. Alexander Rodriguez Acosta was driving a red RAM 1500 pickup truck. Both men were arrested for human smuggling.

Air support was also provided by DPS Aircraft Operations.

There were six illegal aliens in the vehicle from Mexico and Vietnam. Troopers handed over all six illegals to the Border Patrol.

TGP also reported this month of another human smuggler that was arrested by DPS troopers in a hotel parking lot. He attempted to flee on foot but was quickly caught. He was smuggling four illegals in his vehicle.

Article IV, Section 4 of the US Constitution gives the federal government the authority and responsibility to protect the country from an invasion.

“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.” Article IV, Section 4 of the US Constitution.

The rule of law has been restored under President Trump.
