Many border patrol agencies are tested by political intervention. The interviewer wants to ensure that you will not let your political beliefs keep you from effectively doing your job if hired. The agency may not agree with the politics of the job, but it is something the agency needs to work with as they are a governmental agency.

Focus on assuring the interviewer that you will not let your political beliefs stand in the way of the work you perform. Let them know that you leave politics at home and do not discuss politics in the workplace.

"I do not have a political party I follow. I have found working as a border patrol officer for many years, that it is best to remain neutral when it comes to politics. I do not believe there should be political talk in the workplace."
