“If approved by Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan,”
Huh? 100’s of thousands of miles of concertina wire should have been piled across our border month one.
Well, this is the line in the sand.
The RATS make no bones about it - they stand there and lie and spout absurdities like “we’re all safer with no walls!” and “sanctuary cities reduce crime!.” This isn’t a mere difference of opinion. This is a danger to our country and these people are traitors and should be treated as such and condemned as such by every good person in America.
President Trump needs to make a national address and point this out. Then he needs to send in the military to build the damn wall and cut the obstructionist traitorous RATS out of the picture. THEN he needs to inform them that he’s getting his wall, and they can go pound sand before he green lights ANYTHING they put on his desk.
The concertina wire is both helpful and troublesome. I dont know if it is helping to deter crossing or not but I assume that it helps. One problem is that they keep cutting it in high traffic areas and then it has to be repaired. The bigger problem is injuries, we have had a lot of people cutting their hands on the wire. That means that they have to go to the hospital and it takes two border agents for everyone person in the hospital. So every time it happens it takes two agents out of the field and some nights it happens multiple times.
The DoD is not our friend.
Pull all the troops home. Why police the world when our stupidly run Army can't even secure our open borders.
Why is a bad thing to give an “exit date” from < insert middle eastern hell hole nation here > but it is A-ok to tell the world when US troops will leave the border with Mexico? Hmmm?
Wire should have been rolled out in 2017 until the fence can be constructed.
Rock and roll out the wire.

Maybe ‘this’ is what the GOFUNDME money should be used for.
We could probably pay for enough wire to cover all the necessary areas.
We need a wall, trenches, barbed wire, and a good parallel east-west access road, communications. Walls work as long as they are completed. Even the Maginot line could have worked if the French had extended it from the Luxembourg border to the Channel.
Just think of the money that will be saved on local law enforcement, schools, healthcare, food stamps.
"...razor wire..."
How about stringing 1000 miles, 20 foot high.
Is there a way to spin it constantly like a Cuisinart?
What does SECDEF have to do with this?
POTUS is the Commander in Chief, and if he says “Do it,” they HAVE to do it!
Tax wire transfers to mexico 19%.
I hope Pres Trump pours it on the dems in the house!! He isn’t timid and he does not like to lose.. so pour it on!!
Do the dems today know the anger they are stirring up out here? Talk of impeachment and all the dirty words and accusations spewing from their speech...
Mothers turn into mama bears when their kid is attacked... I hope there are a lot of mama bears out here who have had enough of the insults against our President and against his voters. The whole world hears this and they do not know what runs our country.. the ugly talk weakens our place in the world.. the attacks are akin to treason...
I think the older generation are more upset than the younger.. as a whole.. for we know a time when this would not go on.. could not go on... and everyone knew it. Today the world is upside down. The hosts on Fox don’t even act upset.. but there was a time when the media would have said this would not go on, on their station.. they would have been fired. Today it goes on and no one seems to think it out of place!!! And it’s hard to take.. I have to turn it off... there is no sense any more.. no decency.. no respect for the office... people have lost their minds!!!
I’d rather he sent troops into the US Capitol to make hundreds of arrests, but I’ll take what I can get.
