Breitbart: The government is sending 160 soldiers to help border agents block the migrant surge that is expected if the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals strikes down the Migrant Protection Protocols.
The MPP program has sent roughly 60,000 migrants back into Mexico, prior to their eventual asylum hearings in the United States. The return policy deters migration by preventing migrants from getting the U.S. jobs they need to repay their smuggling loans — unless they eventually win their backlogged courtroom claims.
Some of the 30,000 migrants waiting in Mexico rushed for the border February 28 when the court declared the MPP program to be illegal. The court then quickly put a stay on its decision to block the MPP until March 12, pending any Supreme Court intervention.
The California-based court also decided to allow the MPP program to operate in Texas.
Officials at the Department of Justice have asked the Supreme Court to extend the delay.
Administration officials are sending the troops to the border out of fear the migrants will try to overwhelm the border defenses on March 12.
Officials also said the extra troops could help prevent the migration of people with diseases, such as the Covid-19 disease from China.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency’s “mission is to secure our nation’s borders, and measures such as the Crisis Response Force employment allow CBP to do just that,” a senior agency official told reporters March 6. He continued:
An additional 160? To destroy 30,000?
How many bodies on the Ninth Circuit? Versus 160?
Electing Joe Biden will be at least a full magnitude intellect upgrade of the Commander in Chief. The current seat warmer’s, obviously, retarded.
Send them to the 9th Circuit instead. They’re more of a threat to our sovereignty. Send Beto’s Bandito’s to the border. Let’s see how effective his windmill maneuver is against the mob.
I hope the soldiers will have orders to shoot any of them who commit unfriendly acts.
So if they rush the border, what are they going to do about it?
What will they be allowed to do about it?
Soldiers are trained for a different purpose than civilian law enforcement personnel and should not be put in a position where they are not allowed to do what they were trained to do.

…it’s an invasion, sponsored and promoted by enemies foreign and domestic.
Treat it as such.
Meanwhile in Sacramento, California police are enforcing a mandatory stay in your house order issued by the health dept. This is America? Why isn’t Newsom putting the Nat’l Guard on the border if he cares so much about our health.

“I hope the soldiers will have orders to shoot any of them who commit unfriendly acts.”
…and invasion is an unfriendly act.
Automatic weapons fire will slow down border rushes, set up sensor fired mini guns 5000 rounds per minute of 5.56 ammo.
I know it sounds horrible and inhumane, but it has to be done…stop them at all costs, including the use of deadly force.
Hopefully sent with an overabundance of claymores and live rounds.
It’s too bad we don’t have a wall or fence at the border; has anyone thought of doing something like that? It seems to work at the border of nearly every other country on the planet.

“I know it sounds horrible and inhumane”

You have to use deadly force at some point. We are at that point.
