The Mexican army chief revealed Monday that almost 15,000 troops had been dispatched to its border with the United States to stop migrants from crossing

The unit is made up of soldiers and National Guardsmen who have detained migrants who illegally attempt to enter the U.S.

Pressured by President Donald Trump to stop the flow of undocumented immigrants to the U.S., Mexico placed 6,000 soldiers at its southern border

Mexico agreed to reinforce its border with Guatemala after Trump threatened to impose tariffs on Mexican goods if they do not reduce the migrant flow

The deal, struck on June 7, gives Mexico 45 days to show results

I’d keep an eye on that force of troops. I’ve got a healthy sense of paranoia. Imagine a force of 100,000 Mexican troops pouring across the border with an in place sympathetic population to join forces along with a cartel factoring in with another thousands strong force. Our country is saturated with people that hold allegiance to other countries and we have sympathetic anti Americans within our government. It’s kind of like a Red Dawn scenario. The way things are going I don’t put a lot of faith in our glorious leaders. Only you and me and a warm gun.

Poor article.
You would think the Daily Mail would be fluent in English, but they keep referring to illegal aliens as “Migrants”!
Nothing in the article makes it clear if Mexicans are among those being stopped from crossing.
My money says no, so look for fake Mexican ID’s being sold to the “Migrants” ASAP.
As other articles have confirmed, the “Migrants” are “fleeing poverty”, but have thousands of dollars available to make the trip.

Doesn’t mean that much on its own.
We will know if it’s all worked in two-three months, through the rate of detentions on the border. That seems like a reliable proxy metric.

President Trump gave the Mexicans 45 days to make a significant drop in US border crossings...and that was a couple of weeks ago....otherwise Tariffs implemented.

I’d keep my ear to the ground and listen to what local illegals are saying to each other about current events. If they sound nervous, it’s good news.

This is what their politicians are saying; Mexican Senator says Mexico should take back states;
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-mews/3754791/posts
Mex House speaker says they can’t stop incoming flow http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3756257/posts
As far as the illegal roundup goes Check the precinct list of registered voters where these people resided. If they’re on that list, Federal crime, charge them and those that enabled this
Delay gives pervocrats time to clean up voter lists and remove illegals names from. Election fraud is what also should be looked at before kicking them out

With all due respect, put that beer down :)

The utter devastation an air attack alone would have on mexico would be horrific.

Come on man :)

I don’t drink anymore. The tumor in my liver doesn’t like it. I’m not talking about a scenario such as invasion happening in the very near future. I read an article back in 95 about how the Mexicans would become the majority in California within 30 to 40 years and that they might appeal to the U.N. to be recognized as a state of Mexico. It doesn’t seem to far fetched now. Am I a little crazy about this country being constantly invaded and possibly taken over overnight? Yeah. But not stupid. Take a look. Take a close look. What’s happened to California will happen to Texas and other states if this invasion is not stopped soon. Otherwise just keep whistling past the graveyard.

A10s, Apaches, and HumVees with mini-guns should be patrolling our border.

You forgot cluster munitions and claymore mines.

An attempt to illegally cross our borders should result in certain, immediate, and horrific death.

Then we bill your country of origin for our trouble.

Mexico has sent 15,000 soldiers to its U.S. border? In sane times, the appropriate response to the deployment of troops to the border by an unrealiable neighbour would be to counter-deploy 15,000 U.S. troops. ‘Cos of course, no one but the Mexicans really know what’s the purpose of their 15,000 troops.

The Mexicans have all but occupied Kalifornia (where Spanish is now the most common languge?), Texas to follow PDQ.
