Breitbart: President Donald Trump is sending only about 3,000 National Guard troops to the border this Spring.
“We’re looking from 2,000 to 4,000” on the border, Trump told reporters during a gaggle on Air Force One. “We’ll probably keep them, or a large portion of them, until such time as we get the wall.”
Trump is mobilizing the National Guard via Title 32 of federal law, which requires cooperation and approval from the governors. The soldiers will be used for support roles, such as logistics and surveillance, as many Central American economic migrants use spring and summer migrate to the U.S. border, either to sneak through or to request asylum.
Trump’s deployment may be smaller than President George W. Bush’s mobilization of up to 6,000 soldiers for support roles under “Operation Jump Start.”
According to a 2008 report by the National Guard:
Operation Jump Start is a two-year program. The National Guard’s initial commitment called for up to 6,000 troops during the first year. During the second year troop strength decreased incrementally from approx. 6,000 to 3,000 troops as new Border Patrol agents were trained, new infrastructure was built, and advanced technologies were implemented in border security. Operation Jump Start is scheduled to end July 15, 2008.
The statement continued:
More than 29,000 troops from all 54 states and territories have supported Operation Jump Start since the mission began in 2006.
Projected mission cost is $1.2B. $211M spent in FY 06, $687M spent in FY 07. $304M budgeted for FY 08 …
Improvements in Tactical Infrastructure Include:
• 31+ Miles of Fencing
• 13+ Miles of Road
• 86+ Miles of Vehicle Border Barriers
• 1153 Miles of Road Repaired
Trump is being forced to deploy the National Guard because Democrats — and business-first Republicans — blocked his immigration reforms plan in a February 15 vote. Trump’s plan offered a generous amnesty to at least two million illegal immigrants in exchange for funding for a border wall, ending the visa lottery, winding down chain-migration and patching the various legal loopholes which allow migrants to exploit Congress’ “catch and release” laws. read more

Mean while, Jerry the Fairy Brown, hasn’t said shit since this thing started. Maybe it has something to do with all the Northern Counties Sheriffs departments laughing at his sanctuary state bull shit, and southern Cali Municipalities actually taking the time to draft resolutions defying his looney policies.
No more catch and release.https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/apr/6/trump-signs-memo-vowing-end-to-catch-and-release-o/
PS
I’m starting to see that CalDoj is not comfortable coming into any county North of Sacramento County to enforce their dumb ass unconstitutional laws.
I’m not that busy I would be happy to guard the border from the high ground.
Put a couple of high power rounds at someone’s feet to warn them to turn around.
You don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here.
