Donald Trumps planned tour of the Laredo Sector of the Texas -Mexico border has been canceled by the national AFL-CIO-controlled union that represents U.S. Border Patrol agents, the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC).

The local agents expect Trump to continue without the participation of the union.
Start looking with Rick Perry
I think, it's intimidation by the National Union. Thug style.
They don’t want their actions exposed. Bribery. Or other corruptions?
I thought of Perry, but I don't know if an ex-governor of Texas would have any pull or influence with the BP union.
I agree ....go Arpaio!
The democrat or RINO who runs their national union.
Perhaps Senator Cruz can learn the details.
Trump had better hire his own “PROTECTION”. I’m quite sure that there will be a host of ex-seals and ex-green berets would be willing to volunteer for the job. I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t put a contract out on Trump. They can always blame “EL CHAPO”
a labor union can do this? sounds like illegal interference with the civil rights of an American citizen...
plus an illegal misuse of member dues monies for probably-undeclared political purposes
also a potential RICO violation
or something like that
That would be good except the Maricopa County is not quite on the border so somebody would probably try to block that, also.
The National Union just made Mr. Trump’s “corruption claims” all the more VALID!

It definitely sounds like politics. Can't imagine any legal or rational reason since assorted politicians and news people frequently tour the border and I've never heard of anything like this before.
Some Breitbart and other decent reporters need to investigate this for precendents and any legal or logical justification.
PATCO? Sure. All these nervous RNC types were urging caution, ‘bad idea!’ Leave the businesslike, you’ll be sorry and hurt us with the public, blah blah (sound familiar?)
So Reagan fires their illegally striking butts and comes out smelling like a rose as far as the flying public was concerned, and the GOP looked like weeping Boehners.
I think that’s what people like about Trump: he may be a loose cannon, but he’s also got balls like church bells.
I hope Trump goes anyway. Someone on their day off could talk to him anonymously.
What difference does it make? Jade Helm is already happening, and we’re all under martial law. There are no doubt millions of Mexicans streaming in through the tunnels from Mexico to the closed Walmart stores.
;-D
for some reason my moron autocorrect thinks “unions” are “businesslike”
I think you’re right. One cannot keep going full steam ahead day in, day out for what? the next 18 months? No. As much as I like that Trump has forced many to face hard facts, we cannot forget he is but one 69 year old man. I don’t expect him to remain the Energizer Bunny forever.
It sounds like poltics and corruption. Can't imagine a rational reason for this since politicians and reporters frequently tour the border with BP cooperation.
This prediction is getting repeated so much that it is getting old. Kind of like those ones saying he’s not serious, he won’t file, he won’t report finances, etc. He may quit, just like any other candidate, but until then, what’s the point of dismissing him as a quiter?
