Trump's Border Security Push Needs 10,000 Agents: The Answer Is Right in Front of Us
townhall.com ^

Posted on 12/02/2024 2:14:49 PM PST by DIRTYSECRET

President Trump's call for 10,000 new Border Patrol agents is precisely what our border security needs, but there's a crucial question: where exactly are we supposed to find these people? The answer is staring us right in the face. Every year, about 200,000 service members transition out of the military. These aren't just numbers on a page – these are trained professionals looking for their next mission, and we desperately need them not just for Border Patrol but for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).

Here you go. Find all the guys who plan on leaving the military in the next 6 months. Offer the good ones a big bonus to work the border, process them out and let them work their remaining time at the border.

As an added bonus, some may stay.

An immediate answer is to close all National Parks and National Forests in states where the governors refuse to cooperate with ICE and the Border Patrol. Then reassign all sworn officers to assist ICE and Border Patrol.

We can easily pay for it by firing 10,000 of Joe Biden’s 87,000 new IRS Agents. Hell, fire them all.

But we also need to use E-Verify or some other system to verify legal immigration status for employment and any publicly funded benefit.

Public service announcement:
Attention all illegal aliens...
Deportations have begun, you have the option of getting you and your family back to Mexico on your own, which is recommended.
If you are deported by the US Government, you will be dispatched to Antarctica. Choose wisely. End of message.

The problem will take care of itself.

If things here become “unpleasant” enough a substantial portion of that number will self deport.

But, would I consider the cost of 100,000 officers to be justified to get rid of these illegals? Absolutely.

Aren’t there 87,000 IRS police soon to be unemployed?

I was wondering when someone would mention them. 😂

Even better:

“Attention Illegal Aliens:

Deportations have begun, you have the option of getting you and your family back to your country on your own, with all the property you have accumulated here in the USA, which is recommended.

If you are deported by the US Government, you and your family will be dispatched to your country of origin with the clothes on your back. If your country won’t accept you back, you will be parachuted from the back of a USAF C-130 at 2am somewhere within that Nation against their wishes. 1 parachute in 100,000 fails. The question you have to ask yourself is: Do I feel Lucky? Well, do ya, punk?”

End of message.

The problem will take care of itself.

There are lots of unemployed/underemployed people in the US who would jump at a steady well paying Federal job. No worries.

Shoot, yeah, I would. Give them vests with the words “Carne de Canon” on them and put then on the trails the cartels use. Less paperwork that way that RIFing them. :D
