I’ve heard some say the border is meant to be a distraction. For now, I think that’s true but I think it’s meant to a flexible asset employed as needed.
Just as these Q drops are arriving, the left is engaging in histrionics re the border. Timing?
A woman fell while trying to cross a section of border fence WITH HER TWO SMALL CHILDREN. She was impaled (side and buttock) on rebar and had to be treated. The left is screaming, and I’m wondering WHAT MOTHER pushes past Mexican riot police to try to take small children over a border fence under construction in sight of soldiers, helicopters etc.? It could have been her little children impaled on rebar.
Also - at some point some invaders tried to pass through a hole made in the fence and two volleys of teargas were deployed. The left hysterically shrieked, “IS THIS IT? WE’RE FIRING TEAR GAS AT TODDLERS NOW?” No, of course “we” aren’t. But parents (with children) trying to rush a border fence guarded by soldiers/helicopters may not be able to avoid the tear gas fired at the MOB. Again -who takes young children INTO that?
So right now, the fence is optics. The DEMS are in their glory portraying border patrol as targeting children.
Now that Mexico has said they will deport 500 people who rushed the fence today, I hope the children will be safer.

My post was poorly written. THe article I read said “a strong breeze” carried the tear gas some distance, so the affected persons were not necessarily rushing the fence but were probably waiting a short distance away to perhaps take advantage of a break or access through the fence of some kind. Again - who puts children THERE? And the left is saying “we” fired tear gas AT CHILDREN! FAKE NEWS.
Oh and some of the crazies on the left are talking war crimes, hoping for Hague trials for this and making comparisons to Nazi Germany.
