Love that our Pres has a pair!
President Trump just signed it :-)
They better be armed and they better have bullets.
I hope the administration won't be seeking the governors' permission or acquiescence to the President's plan.
I'm thinking Jerry Brown here. If he puts up a fight, he needs to be clapped in irons and hauled away.
In addition to sending some stopgap Military manpower as a band aid, we should deliberately stand up a permanent Military capability, that makes use of the Military’s unique capabilities, and hire civilian contractors (like security guards) for the simple tasks.
NORTHCOM should be tasked to establish permanent situational awareness along the Southern border, like they currently do for North America’s airspace in NORAD, and for our Maritime borders. Live data feeds could be shared with Border Patrol facilities, and even to officers on the move in their vehicles.
Maybe get a few dedicated satellites staring at the border 24x7. Maybe get the Air Force operators from Nellis AFB outside of Vegas to run their drones along the border areas, when they are not firing Hellfires at the Taliban - or stand up an extra unit just for the border, which could reinforce an overseas war in a pinch.
Give every one of the active Military Services, the National Guard and Reserves a border mission of some sort to prepare for. Let’s see what their Defense Contractors and Laboratories could dream up for them. Non-lethal crowd control weapons and a variety of robots for patrol and chase might come in handy.
PDJT is right to do this military deployment along the border. But no news outlet is writing the truth.
Here is the truth:
By International Law standards, Mexico is perpetrating an Act of War on the USA. This outlines what is at stake here:
“The 1500 man Honduran “caravan” on its way to the Southern border is more than it seems. Of course they will be denied entry. But this is intended by the US liberal fascist left to be the beginning os a refugee camp on the Mexican side of the border. Once it becomes a UN approved refugee camp, it will be funded by the Muslim countries who control much of the UN’s “refugee” program.
“It will then be only a short time before the men of that camp will be armed by Iran, North Korea and other radical Muslim States. One can see the Arab Spring hand of our magic negro community organizers at work. Mexico will sit back and allow it all, what have they got to lose? The entire Northern tier of Mexican states is controlled by Mexican gangs.
“PDJT has only a short time to act, but he has a weaponized FBI, DOJ and CIA. Who knows what will happen now? Our country cannot permit the establishment of a UN approved refugee camp on our Southern border. PDJT has either a military option or he must grant asylum to the 1500 and process them immediately. Both are only short term stop gaps.
“If PJDT can draw the attention of America to the incredible risk to our national security as an election issue, he may actually see the November election bring full Republican control of the Senate and the House. But that has its own uncertainty.
“These factors will begin to play out over the next few months. Congress will rue the day they ever refused to implement some kind of solution to settle the DACA issue. Now the rage of the American people is about to be felt at the polls. One can only hope that it wil come against the Democrat party and its deep state cabal , a criminal syndicate of liberal fascists who seek to destroy America. This is why President Trump must fire both Mueller and Rosenstein, replace Sessions and clean these liberal fascist mafia from the higher echelons of the federal government.
“The invasion of our country is about to begin.”

BOOM!!!
Love it!!!
Go President Trump!!!
So the whole idea city trips to the border is a nonstarter. I just heard on the news they’re talking about months before the first trips to go, not yesterday as the secretary suggested. They still don’t know how many, they still don’t know what they’re going to do, etc. In my opinion, this was a half assed announcement that was not ready to be made but was made to troll the news and appease people upset with the situation. Sad. Talk, not matched by action.
Trump says this evening that 2,000 to 4,000 troops will be sent to the border, which is less than Bush Junior sent.
