It’s time to make an exception for the military at the borders and coasts to protect our country from an invasion. Not just leave it to Border Patrol and the Coast Guard. Times and dangers have changed. This exception should have been done 50 years ago.

The coast guard is a military branch. The border patrol should have never existed. Using the military to enforce our border should have always been used.

The malarky about our military not being allowed by law to protect our borders is an outright LIE! The military cannot be used against our own citizens to enforce political positions but most certainly can protect our country. That is their primary duty.

No exception is required. Defending our borders against invasion is one of the federal government's primary duties, and has nothing to do with Posse Commitatus.
