Remember — Biden could have done it at any time…
President Trump’s 1,500 troops (sent by executive order) arrived at the southern border this week to assist Border Patrol agents with the immigration crisis exacerbated by the Biden-Harris Administration.
From The New York Times:
A senior Defense Department official said 1,000 Army soldiers and 500 Marines, as well as additional intelligence analysts and helicopters and their crews, were being rushed to the border to begin fulfilling one of President Trump’s top policy priorities: stemming the flow of migrants into the United States.
The first few hundred troops started moving toward the border on Wednesday morning, Pentagon officials said. They include Marines who had been on call to help support firefighting efforts in Southern California until they were released from that duty over the weekend as the blazes eased.
Among the troops’ first missions will be to help build “temporary and permanent physical barriers to add additional security to curtail illegal border crossings and illicit trafficking,” Robert G. Salesses, the acting defense secretary, said in a statement.
