EXCLUSIVE: New Video Showcases Human Impact of Biden’s Border Crisis on Texas Rancher

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—When Martin Wall and his wife bought a ranch in Eagle Pass, Texas, in 2021, they had no idea they’d spend the next four years defending their property from the Biden administration’s illegal immigration crisis.

Wall achieved his dream of purchasing a ranch and raising his children there. But the day now-former President Joe Biden came into office, it was like he “turned on” the flow of illegal immigrants, Wall said in a video produced by American Border Story, a conservative nonprofit highlighting the human impact of the border crisis.

The video comes as Biden’s successor, Donald Trump, continues to push for passage of its big, beautiful bill, which would provide full funding for the president’s border security agenda.

Members of the Wall family felt like they lived in the Wild West, as illegal immigrants from all over the world, many with criminal records, broke into their home, damaged their fences, and stole their personal items, and Border Patrol did nothing to stop it, Wall said in the video, obtained by The Daily Signal.

“It was pretty empty feeling when your wife couldn’t feel safe in your own home that you just bought,” Wall said.

He said he was most afraid his daughter would get assaulted due to encountering hundred of migrant girls who had been raped by multiple migrant men.

“I wouldn’t have my kids be a prisoner in their own home, so I still let them go around the ranch and be kids and act like kids, but I had to send my daughter out with a pistol, and my son, he couldn’t go ride his bike.”

But the day Trump took office, the crisis was over, Wall said.

American Border Story released the Wall family’s story to show the impact of policies employed by the Biden administration between January 2021 and January 2025, and the difference a secure border can make.

“President Trump was given a mandate by the American people to secure the border and deport illegal aliens,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told The Daily Signal. “While he’s already been extraordinarily successful on both fronts, the One Big, Beautiful Bill is critical to fortify the president’s success and make the progress permanent, by finishing the border wall, detaining and deporting at least 1 million illegal aliens every year, massively expanding our detention capacity, and hiring additional Border Patrol and ICE agents.”
