Like I said, military will be taking over southern border patrol. This frees up Border Patrol to run mass deportations/civilian uprising gangs of cops and militia who are working with them. We are here kids.
Hatred of Trump and his people continues to rise uncontrollably in my gorge. I used to be repelled by government policies. This time, it's gotten to whole other level. This fascist regime has got to go--and sooner rather than later.
The clown’s obsession with the military is laughable. I mean in as far as we are all laughing at him as it’s common knowledge that Daddy paid a doctor to defer the coward 5 times. The predictable old man wants to use the military (that he was too weak and terrified to join) on us because he is desperate to make the military his personal military like his boss Putin. It is a rouse pretending that there is an invasion at the border when all data proves the opposite. His criminal regime and Project 2025’s plans are clear. They aspire authoritarian rule and they are setting up to turn our military against us and take our country by fear and threat of force. I imagine the psycho will next desire to turn the military on our neighbors to fulfill his embarrassing childlike daydreams of invading Canada and Mexico. CA will sue, data will hold up and he will lose in court again and be told to send the military home. He continues to underestimate the 2/3 of the country that are not gullible, misinformed, or brainwashed. Our principles are founded in fact and we are fired up. This ploy too will fail.
Your cape needs to be laundered. “Get real”, okay I will.
You and millions of other Americans have no idea what is legal or illegal simply because you nor they have read the US 1980 Refugee Act. In that act, the US recognizes International standards that the US supported in the UN since the 1950’s. In those standards (read “legal” because it is actually written law, not news propaganda repeated a million times to try and make it not so),
legal language states that the right to ask for asylum is at any international border, i. e. whether or not it is a port of entry. Your vox populi definition of legal v legal is legal fiction. If your life is under threat, being told by a consular officer at “any consulate” to come back another day with more “documentation” is a very good recipe for getting yourself killed in countries where organized crime rules the streets.
Of course we might actually agree, that there are more people coming for work, than for asylum (I’d put at 75%v 25%) because the US govt. refuses to legalize 50% of all agricultural workers in the United States, and I’m gonna take a wild guess here Wayne, maybe, just maybe, that’s because they are paid less than “legal” workers are…., hummm, who is benefiting most from this arrangement?
Would not a “legal” workforce become just and more productive?, but by only allowing a very very small portion of that workforce in on temporary or seasonal work visas is why most are not legalized. US Employers directly recruit them, so they come.
So perhaps we may agree that the asylum system is broken. and that is because it is highly under resourced, but one political party used to say, “secure the border first, then we’ll reform the broken system”. But funny thing Bruce, No Boy Robin in the Congress is willing to now such sponsor a bill. Why is that? I smell a bait and switch.
As a taxpayer you and I are now subsidizing military contractors with billions and billions of dollars. The immigrant population is less than 5% our total population. If you want to stop drugs, you might ask yourself who protects that monopoly in every large US city?, and you might ask why both parties refuse to regulate banks more closely?
I have some rather disturbing news for you Mr. Wayne, laundering some 28.7 billion dollars annually from drug sells is big business. Congressional reps get campaign contributions from the banking industry, “legally”; it’s called lobbying.
I don’t yet see how occupying the Rosevelt Reservation stops that money, do you Bruce? Banks transfer such funds through international wire transfers, they are not sending mules with packs stuffed with cash back into Mexico or driving it in, there is no need for that, way too messy. Border Drones and robo dogs not withstanding.
I’m gonna take another wild wild guess, and that is you do not actually live in the border zone.
But if you do, why can’t you see a red herring when it is served up over, and over, and over again?
Follow the money Mr. Wayne, not the boots on the ground. The neo-liberal economic model will go along with demonizing violence metted out against migrants, but as that economic model begins to fall apart and is agressively dismantled by our current president, more and more violence at the border will be used to politically justify the new economic model replacing it. Scapegoating is an affordable cost for large businesses who benefit from this system.
Florida Gov. Santos has called for children to replace migrants who stopped showing up in produce fields. Is that real enough? Are we going to return to child labor?
Another step towards misuse of the Insurrection Act. Is Congress, or the courts prepared to stop a fake war in its tracks?
Is Trump preparing to invoke the Insurrection Act? Signs are pointing that way.
A joint Department of Defense and Homeland Security report will soon recommend whether or not to invoke the Insurrection Act over illegal migration
“The clock is ticking down on a crucial but little-noticed part of Trump’s first round of executive orders — tasking the secretaries of the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security to submit a joint report, within 90 days, recommending “whether to invoke the Insurrection Act.”
Many of us are now holding our collective breath, knowing that the report and what it contains could put us on the slippery slope toward unchecked presidential power under a man with an affinity for ironfisted dictators.
I would not be surprised to have the US admin use the same tactic to militarize other border regions like the Big Bend National Park... and set up "detention centers" (i.e. concentration camps) out of sight, out of mind.
It should come as no surprise that this administration wants to keep migrants who may be seeking political asylum out and they will use any means at their disposal to meet these ends.
This contingent of our society has existed since the days of slavery and I don't think much will change until they die out. In fact that light may never dim as there are some in every society who think superiority is based on race, intellect or simply physical might and will engage in acts of violence to back up their view.
Religions don't help for the old men who govern the world's societies cite "god's will" as the commands are given for the young troops to march off to their death.
Trumps is copying Netanyahu's playbook. Both psychopaths that are hell bent on controlling others by bullying, fear mongering, using military and threatening violence, violating laws including international laws, and creating their own version of laws that suits their desire for power at the cost of everyday people, the environment, cultures, and anyone or anything that gets in their way or doesn't agree with them. Something is going to give and soon, this can't go on!!
Liberal abuses of our immigration policies have lead us here, blame your own party, not Trump. More failure by insane gender and race ideology. You Liberals are all a bunch of tax and spend Fascists.

The characterization you have used here “weaponization of constitutional wartime powers and their application to what is fundamentally a humanitarian situation subverts refugee protection globally and dangerously misuses the military against vulnerable people seeking safety.” is a absolute joke. These people have every right to stop at any US consulate along the way and apply or they can even just use the many port of entry locations along the border. What they cannot do is enter out country illegally and expect a welcome mat or red carpet treatment. Get real ! Are you even citizens of the USA? One thing is for certain you have tainted the entire story with falsehoods which makes you two a couple of fools ! While I am at it, I will point out this is the very reason Democrats lost the last election, and will continue to lose into the distant future. Nothing but lies and more lies. messaging will no longer work with the people. You folks have actually killed your party and you don't even know it.

Yep, you did call it.

Invent a war. Send the military to handle fake war. What could go wrong?
Thank you for highlighting this latest outrage. The news happens so fast these days that I never would have heard about it.
