Adding 2000 new Border Patrol agents is nothing?

2000?

Have you seen the size of the borders along the north and south? Have you seen the legions of illegals crossing in?

Have you not noticed how the Border Patrol is restrained by it's own bureaucracy from doing its job?

They'll be added right after airline pilots are allowed to carry guns. (Remember that doozie of a promise?)

Weren't we told the provisions that would have discouraged states from giving drivers licenses to illegal aliens needed to be removed because they had nothing to do with intelligence gathering?

What do BP agents and more beds for illegal alien detention facilities have to do with intelligence gathering?

It has been reported that the 2000 new border agent slots are subject to the availability of appropriations. If that is accurate, I would doubt that the appropriations will be available.
