More info about our troops on the border, aka Operation Faithful Patriot. The Pentagon is so creative in naming stuff.


The troops are mainly stringing concertina wire, even though five of the 39 units deployed are public affairs units. It was announced that all units will be pulled out by Dec. 15.

Comparing the holocaust to border security is hardy a topic I find funny. Sorry to disappoint you.

It is not political, it is just sick.

Gotcha they are down there waiting for the right 'moment' that perfect camera shot that will set them high upon a pedestal that even Jim Acosta can't reach.

Waiting in the weeds.

Judge smacks down administration's ban on asylum seekers: Trump 'may not rewrite the immigration laws' by decree
"This ban is illegal, will put people's lives in danger and raises the alarm about President Trump's disregard for separation of powers," said Lee Gelernt of the ACLU

https://www.alternet.org/judge-smack...on-laws-decree

Saying the President Donald Trump had exceeded his presidential authority, a federal judge later Monday ruled against the president's attempt to restrict the abilities of refugees seeking asylum at the U.S. border and imposed a restraining order that directs the administration to resume accepting asylum claims from people regardless of where or how they enter country.

From CNN:

Judge Jon S. Tigar of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California said that a policy announced November 9 barring asylum for immigrants who enter outside a legal check point '"irreconcilably conflicts" with immigration law and the "expressed intent of Congress."

"Whatever the scope of the President's authority, he may not rewrite the immigration laws to impose a condition that Congress has expressly forbidden," Tigar wrote, adding that asylum seekers would be put at "increased risk of violence and other harms at the border" if the administration's rule is allowed to go into effect.

The temporary restraining order is effective nationwide and will remain in effect until December 19, when the judge has scheduled another hearing, or further order of the court.

A completely STUPID decision, not surprising it came from an appointee by the Kenyan Pile of Krap.

Trump let the process stand with rules to provide an orderly process. This brain dead judge just opened the door for violence.
some one is going to die thanks to this disgrace to the bench.

Unless, of course, it is done by a Kenyan Kreep.
Which he did several times.

The three branches of Government are 'supposed to be' equal thus it is the Judiciary branch that is exceeding its power. It is up to the Senate to decide with one branch or the other. POTUS could ignore the judge and take it to the Senate to decide with a 2-1 decision.
The Senate is chickenshit in this regard and would rather not be involved at all even though it is their duty.

That the razor wire I wrote about 2 or 3 weeks ago. There will be great photo ops for the media when the blood starts flowing copiously from all the self-inflicted cuts.

Speaking of which, did the Kenyan ever supply us with his real birth certificate?

I wonder what would happen if Trump shopped around for a conservative district court judge and (s)he ruled differently. Then what?
