The images of the agents had many liberals and members of the mainstream media falsely accuse them of using whips against the Haitians. That was not the case as the agents are not issued whips, but they have split reins to control the horse.
A Border Patrol source explained to Townhall:
"Agents use their reins for a lot of reasons. Primarily it's used to steer the horse, but agents will also spin them sometimes to deter people from getting too close to the horse. If they get too close, the horse can step on them, breaking bones or causing other injuries. Agents also need to maintain control of their reins so they don't lose control of the horse, which can cause injuries to immigrants, the agents, and the horses.At the White House on Friday, President Joe Biden vowed the agents involved in the incident will be punished.
"We are not aware of anyone being struck with the reins."
