Most excellent.

I estimate it will cost less than a billion dollars -that's 1/175th of 
what China Joe Xiden sent to Ukraine.

Well, we can let technology handle this, albeit I prefer more jobs for 
boots on the ground...

More employment for AMERICANS, be still my beating heart!

No need to buy, just lease and occupy!

Have the illegals graduated to that now too?

I'm not surprised.

Cleveland, Texas
CNN
  —
The man wanted by law enforcement for the killings of five Texas 
neighbors – including a 9-year-old boy – had entered the US illegally 
and been deported by immigration officials at least four times, a US 
Immigration and Customs Enforcement source said.

The suspect, identified by ICE as Francisco Oropesa Perez-Torres, was 
first removed by an immigration judge in March 2009, the ICE source told 
CNN on Monday.

“At an unknown time and location, Perez-Torres unlawfully reentered the 
United States, and was apprehended and removed several more times by ICE 
Enforcement and Removal Operations in September 2009, January 2012, and 
July 2016,” the source said.

Oropesa’s current immigration status is unclear, and it is not known how 
long he had been in the US since he was last deported.


Bringing us waves of fentanyl, rapes on the border, assaults  and 
murders of US citizens, and unspeakable EVIL like La Tren de Agua!

https://greatgameindia.com/venezuelan-migrant-gangs-target-texas-oil-fields/

Things are getting worse as dangerous consequences of the Biden-Harris 
administration’s open border policies are becoming more apparent. 
Recently, members of a violent Venezuelan prison gang known as Tren de 
Aragua were spotted terrorizing neighborhoods in northern Denver suburbs 
like Aurora, as well as other so-called "sanctuary cities" where the 
local governments refuse to fully enforce immigration laws. Earlier, we 
reported how a Venezuelan spy was behind illegal migrants invading US homes.

https://gov.texas.gov/news/post/texas-ramps-up-efforts-to-target-dangerous-tren-de-aragua

Texas has decreased illegal crossings into the state by 87% due to our 
historic border security mission. Fewer illegal crossings into Texas 
means fewer migrants to transport to sanctuary cities. Since the start 
of Texas’ transportation program, the state has transported:

Over 12,500 migrants to Washington, D.C. since April 2022
Over 45,900 migrants to New York City since August 2022
Over 36,900 migrants to Chicago since August 2022
Over 3,400 migrants to Philadelphia since November 2022
Over 19,200 migrants to Denver since May 2023
Over 1,500 migrants to Los Angeles since June 2023

Operation Lone Star continues to fill the dangerous gaps created by the 
federal government’s refusal to secure the border. Every individual who 
is apprehended or arrested and every ounce of drugs seized would have 
otherwise made their way into communities across Texas and the nation 
due to open border policies.

RECENT HIGHLIGHTS FROM OPERATION LONE STAR:

Governor Abbott Announces $5,000 Reward For Information On Tren De 
Aragua Gang Members

On Monday, Governor Abbott announced a $5,000 reward for information 
leading to the identification and arrest of known or suspected members 
who are involved in criminal activity and pose an increasing danger to 
the public safety of Texans.

“Tren de Aragua has spread terror and carnage in every country they’ve 
been in, and Texas will not allow them to gain a foothold in our state,” 
said Governor Abbott. “Texas will not let these thugs use our state as a 
base of operations to terrorize our citizens. I encourage anyone with 
information on Tren de Aragua to call the Texas Crime Stoppers hotline 
or submit an anonymous tip online. With the public’s help, combined with 
the hard work of federal, state, and local law enforcement, we will 
capture these dangerous gang members and put them behind bars for good.”

To be eligible for the cash rewards, tipsters must provide information 
to authorities using one of the following methods:
•    Call the Texas Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-252-TIPS (8477)
•    Submit a tip online through the Texas Department of Public Safety

WATCH: DPS Finds Five Illegal Immigrants Hiding Inside Lumber During 
Traffic Stop

A DPS trooper stopped a Chevy 3500 hauling lumber on I-35 in La Salle 
County earlier this week. During the traffic stop, the driver, William 
Meza from Laredo, consented to a search of the vehicle.

DPS troopers discovered five illegal immigrants from Honduras and Mexico 
hiding within the lumber. Meza was arrested and charged with five counts 
of smuggling of persons with the likelihood of serious bodily injury or 
death. The five illegal immigrants were referred to Border Patrol.

Nope, the bill had toxic riders and actually increased pandering to 
illegals.

What We Really Need at the Border
The changes proposed to border and asylum policy in this bill can be 
over-simplified into two principles:

Making it harder for people to be allowed to start the asylum process 
upon entering the U.S.; and
Making that process itself faster.
Notably, this bill would not stop anyone from being allowed to set foot 
on U.S. soil. It would not, therefore, do anything to bring down “the 
numbers” on its own. The bill’s proponents hope instead that it will 
reduce the number of people who are allowed to stay in the U.S. outside 
of immigration custody, and therefore, through word of mouth, reduce the 
number of people trying to come to begin with.

What we have seen, time and time again, is that adding additional 
penalties or complications to the process for asylum seekers once they 
arrive in the U.S. immiserates those asylum seekers without having a 
lasting impact on overall border arrivals. This is especially true when 
the process is made longer and less certain, contributing to bottlenecks 
throughout the system including dangerous border overcrowding.

What is instead needed is a way to resolve these cases quickly and 
certainly—taking months, not years—without railroading claimants. This 
bill takes steps in that direction, but overwhelms them with the 
imposition of an opaque emergency authority, which would undermine any 
deterrent effect by providing inconsistent outcomes to people attempting 
to enter the U.S. without warning or rationale.

Efficiency also can’t go so far as to fully sacrifice any meaningful, 
independent review of decisions. Making a process quicker does not 
require cutting corners on due process.

The U.S. can’t solve a global displacement crisis just by deporting 
people to other parts of the world. Cooperation with other countries on 
migration management to support people in their home countries and in 
countries they settle in is not a nice-to-have or a long-term goal, it 
is an essential part of any plan—especially one that expects Mexico and 
other countries to shoulder the responsibility for taking deportees from 
other countries.
