WASHINGTON Along the 2,000-mile border with Mexico, which sprawls across four states and nine House districts, a single seat is held by a Republican: Representative Will Hurd of Texas.
And Mr. Hurd, a former undercover C.I.A. officer who barely won re-election in Texas 23rd District, the largest of the nine, has emerged as perhaps the most persistent critic in his party of President Trumps wall.
Drawing upon his years undercover and his work in the private sector, Mr. Hurd has a starkly different vision for the southwestern border: fiber optic cables, sensors, radar, drones, increased staffing but not the concrete or steel barrier that Mr. Trump has demanded before he reopens the government.

He’s worried about getting re-elected.
“Hes worried about getting re-elected.”
Exactly
Hurd the Turd
Hurd knows better. They will disable sensors, shoot down drones and on and on.
This nimrod thinks that whole SBI-net Boeing project just needs another chance.
So basically he works for the interests of government contractors.
Anything the next Obama can shut off isn’t going to work.
How appropriate, his last name rhymes with TURD!
Hwill Hwurd
But a wall with clear space will expose you long enough to grab your little a**.
So Hurd is in favor of a methodology that already has been tried and failed. Sounds more like a Dem to me.
Deep Stater. Of course he opposes the wall.
Well, at this rate...he wont.

Explains it.
I knew this was Hurd the Turd before I even clicked on to thread.
He is an Open Borders hack whose campaign ads were paid for by COC.
Double agent working for the other side??
There’s a reason all the other districts are Democrat...
I wonder what his private sector involvement was? Was he involved somehow with fiber optic cables, sensors, radar, or drones?
No doubt his residence is unlocked and stocked with appropriate food stuff, cash on the table, car keys in the ignition etc, etc. If not, stfu.
“Hes worried about getting re-elected.”
What he doesn’t realize is that if he actually spoke to a lot of his constituents, he’d understand that the illegals are depressing THEIR wages and job opportunities, and increasing crime in their neighborhoods. No one likes that, regardless of ethnicity (and a good percentage of them are Hispanic). But they have families, too, and hopes and dreams for themselves and their kids involving both safety and opportunity.
He’s just being lazy, and also being part of the Establishment. “Former CIA” screams “Deep State” to me.
