And an immigration address/speech tomorrow. Or so I’ve read.
Hope it is HARD Hitting and will get people out to VOTE for R’s straight ticket.
That’s more like it.
I hope they bring ammunition.
They have to be stopped while STILL ON MEXICAN SOIL.
You can have a zillion troops but if you can’t demonstrate the POLITICAL WILL to tresspass Mexican sovereignty..?
I’m afraid most of the invaders WILL be here to stay; being on US soil kicks into play a whole, long legal process and turning them back while they are STILL OUTSIDE the USA will be prove far more feasible.
Even if our troops occupy just the first 100 meters of Mexico, that’s fine.
We were NOT invited into Grenada, we were NOT invited into Panama.
Beats the 800 troops from a few days ago!
Right. Round them all up and fly them to Venezuela so they can march northward again.
60 Senate seats ???
Smart decision.
Interestingly, it probably won’t be the “caravan” members that our troops have to fight.

I agree, and Mexico should allow our military entry to stop what that can’t.
Parachute them in...sans parachute.
WOO HOO. This is good, IMO. I think they should send 5,000 but tell everyone they’re sending 10,000.
I mean, if we can’t get a good count on the number of illegal invaders, why should we have a good count on the number of military?
‘bout time.
It has Escalated quickly since a 3rd group of invaders has just assembled out of San Salvador and the ones showing at the Mex-Guat border are armed with guns and firebombs.
They are now throwing rocks and trying to beat down the Mexican Border Police. I believe the Mexican / Guatemalan border has been closed at some stations.
And they are headed our way. They look like a violent dangerous group at the Mexico crossing. Later, they are being redressed with designer sportswear and expensive backpacks in Mexico by some one.

They won’t shoot. Treaties are included in the law of the land. We can’t fire i to Mexico.
I’m betting on blocking operations by engineers. And I’ll not be surprised to see emergency wall building justified as necessary to defend from invasion, Article 4, section 4
Mexican cops are commandeering trucks to assist the carvan northward:
The whole matter of US sovereignty, well, that ship has sailed for the Mexicans.
SO WITH MEXICAN SOVEREIGNTY IT SHOULD BE FOR US.
We need a TECHNICAL invasion of Mexico.
In fact the situation was out of their control DECADES ago, this is long overdue.
Excellent point!
Thank God, I was wondering if we were that delusional to think 800 in non-defense assistance to border patrol roles were adequate.
