Biden admin awards Border Patrol agent for his service after falsely accusing him of whipping Haitian illegal immigrants

One of the Border Patrol agents who was falsely accused of whipping illegal immigrants at the US southern border in Texas has received an achievement award from Biden's US Customs and Border Protection.

He was honored on Thursday for his intelligence work on human smuggling cases, as reported by the New York Post. The agent's name has been withheld since the September 2021 incident to protect his identity.

The award was given by the same government that falsely accused the border agent of whipping Haitian migrants on horseback, a viral incident that received strong condemnation from President Biden, in which the president vowed to make the agents involved "pay" for their crimes.
