Border Truth Bombs: Bergquam’s Ground-Level Reality Check Before Law & Border Episode

Ben Bergquam is dropping a trilogy of raw, on-the-ground reports leading into the next episode of Law & Border on Real America’s Voice—spotlighting grassroots MAGA voices, cartel infiltration, and the unprecedented border security shift under Trump versus Biden.


Ben Bergquam has been rolling out a gritty preview of his next episode of Law and Border through three unfiltered videos that hit social media this week—capturing the mood of everyday Americans, the chaos of cartel dominance, and the sharp contrast in border enforcement under two administrations.

The first stop is San Antonio, where Bergquam sat down with local small business owner Jay Santiago. Over bowls of pho in a mom-and-pop spot, Santiago delivered the kind of unvarnished political testimony the mainstream press pretends doesn’t exist. “From the get-go, when he said he was going to run, I knew Trump was going to win,” Santiago told him. For Santiago, the top issues are clear: the border, gas prices, crime, taxes, and home insurance. Despite living in liberal-leaning San Antonio, he sees people waking up. “They’re seeing the results of old parties,” he said, adding that he’s hopeful for his kids and grandkids. Bergquam’s takeaway? Ordinary Americans—often written off as invisible—are still all-in for America First.

From San Antonio, Bergquam shifted to the national stage on the Charlie Kirk Show. His debrief mapped out a whirlwind border tour stretching from San Diego to El Paso and Nogales, exposing cartel tactics and U.S. enforcement responses. In Nogales, he revisited a mountain once cleared by Mexican troops under Trump but now re-occupied by cartel scouts. That, he argues, is why Trump’s call to use U.S. military force against cartels is not just political rhetoric but a necessity. He also documented ICE deportation flights, describing the massive joint operations—ICE, U.S. Marshals, FBI, DEA, and DOD—that make today’s border more secure than it’s been in years. His conclusion was blunt: the choice is between Biden’s “America Last” chaos and Trump’s “America First” order.

The third video hammered that point home—literally on the sand of the Gulf of Mexico. Against the backdrop of SpaceX and rolling surf, Bergquam witnessed multiple Border Patrol busts unfold in real time. “First time I’ve ever seen Border Patrol on this beach,” he said, pointing to vans loaded with detained illegals. Under Biden, he claims, the area was a cartel highway; now, blimps hover overhead and agents are intercepting smugglers on the shoreline. “This is the difference—President Trump put America first. Joe Biden put America last,” he told viewers, as vans carried suspects away.

Taken together, these videos function as a ground-level newswire, bypassing the gatekeepers and putting viewers in the field. From a MAGA-supporting restaurant owner, to cartel outposts, to live smuggling busts, Bergquam is shaping a narrative: America’s border isn’t just a policy debate—it’s a frontline fight that touches communities, economies, and national sovereignty. And Law & Border promises to pull no punches when the full story airs.
