Last but not least, repelling an invasion AT the border is not “law enforcement”. It is a classic military mission.

Tell that to Mattis.

Yes we do. When does DJT realize he has to actually tell the following, Sec Defense Mattis, Sec of the Army, Commander Forcecom, and the Commander Noprthcom that if there are any significant number of invaders let in they are fired right along with Sec DHS. It has to be that blunt and abrasive to get these toads to move. Rumsfeld knew that and was just that blunt with various military enimentos and was deeply hated for it. To bad.

That's because U.S. military troops are prohibited from carrying out law enforcement duties.

That is simply not true.

I say get rid if the BP altogether and give the border security mission to the US Army. Soldiers have been patrolling an securing borders since soldiers were invented.

Hey Julie!

That's because U.S. military troops are prohibited from carrying out law enforcement duties.

Well then what were they doing murdering everybody at Waco?

Oh that's right. That was the democRAT military, not the "Trump" military.

My point exactly. If the US Army were ordered to secure the border, it would be secure. And there'd be a few dead pendejos, and we'd have an end to massive illegal border crossings.

That would require politicians who are both honest and courageous, to give the order.

Where do we find such politicians?
