Encouraging to see some green leaves of life on this withered branch.

Are all liberals only proficient in the language of pig Latin? Build the damn wall! WTP are demanding action in this regard.

Thanks for sharing this.

Good reporting. I may have related this story before, but it needs repeating. US residents are not the only ones who think there needs to be better immigration enforcement. A few years ago I was in Mexico on vacation and got to talking with a store owner there about the problem. He said that the open border is causing problems for Mexico in that more of the young men have this notion that they do not need an education or learn a skill because when they leave home they will just go to the US and get rich. If they do go to the US they find out that they are not going to get rich, so they return to Mexico. But without the education or skills they can not find honest work in Mexico.

It’s also hard to believe Joe and Mika had this guy anywhere near their show.

They’ve gone full throttle to run Trump over, during this dust up over Judge La Raza. Over the top.

Prior to this maufactured exaggerated scandal they were the best to give Trump fair and positive hours per week of coverage.

Now they have relegated Trump to a few moments of coverage at the end of the show.

/backed up by fully armed Apaches./

Benjamin Leaton was a trader, freight hauler along the Chihuahua Trail, and a bounty hunter paid by various local governments in Mexico for each scalp taken from an indigenous person. He also traded munitions to the Apache and Comanche for any stolen cattle they brought him.[2] When Presidio County was established in 1850, Fort Leaton was its first seat of government.[3] Leaton died in 1851,[4] and his widow married Edward Hall who continued operating the freight business from the fort. Hall became financially indebted to Leaton’s scalp hunting partner John Burgess. Hall defaulted on his debt to Burgess in 1864, and was murdered. Burgess took over the fort, and was in turn murdered by Leaton’s son in 1875. The Burgess family remained in the fort until they abandoned it in 1926.[5]

Several of our local /Hispanics/ are really Apache...and most know that they are Indio...

Interesting history, but wrong Apaches.

I mean the kind with a rotor, 2 jet engines and a 30mm chain gun. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_AH-64_Apache

I agree. It worked in the 1950s, it can again. How hard would it be for them to leave, when they don’t have to sneak out. Hell, let’s even pay for the bus or airfare.

I don’t blame some of them...but even the ones with good intentions who don’t follow the rules abiut how and when to enter the country should be invited to leave. The point of the weaponry is to dissuade anyone from trying to enter in any way but at an approved border crossing, and to make sure that the coyotes, drug gangs and terrorists masquerading as immigrants understand that there is a line that we won’t let them cross.

I guess the point that I was trying to make is that if there was no financial benefit for illegal immigration, you would see a lot less of it. A lack of jobs for the undocumented would be a virtual wall that would be far more effective than weaponry.

Watching proggies have cognitive dissonance seizures is good entertainment.

That would work for those that actually come here to work. Many come here just to get on the gravy train, many come here to be criminals. It is a myth that most come here to work hard, have a better life. That was true once upon a time but now what we see crossing the border now are mostly hardened criminals. Many are from Central America and countries all over the world, including known terrorist countries.

You're right. The Wall will keep many of the invaders out, but making it impossible to earn a living here will drive the rest of them out. All we'd have to deal with then would be the externally-funded terrorist cells.
