This is nothing new. In the 1990's I worked for a chemical distributor in the US that also branched out into Mexico. One day we were at the truck crossing at Otay where trucks were being inspected before heading back to the US. Our Mexican salesman told us that trucks from certain companies were never inspected. The US officers just let them right into the US.

"...a hiring push that began five years ago to add thousands of Border Patrol and CBP officers, only 10 percent of the initial applicants were given polygraph tests. Of those, 60 percent failed, raising concerns about the integrity of the others hired without screening."

Yikes!!!
