Vice President Kamala Harris was in Germany this weekend attending a high-level meeting at the Munich Security Conference. Her mission was to boost the transatlantic security alliance to strategically deter Russia from invading Ukraine.
Following her meetings, Harris held a presser. The following is the gist of some of her key answers.
When asked if sanctions could have any leverage considering the claims (from her and Biden) that Putin had already made up his mind to invade Ukraine. She replied that the sanctions were the “greatest sanctions, if not the strongest, that we’ve ever issued”. She added that “diplomatic path still being open, the deterrence effect, we believe, has merit.”

When asked how a war in Europe would affect regular Americans. She replied that “America stands for her principles.” She added that “it requires sometimes for us to put ourselves out there in a way that maybe we will incur some cost.” She cited energy costs, perhaps she meant the price of fuel, but added that steps were being taken to mitigate what that cost might be if it happens.
VIDEO
For both of the above questions and all through the presser, Harris offered no details. There were no insights into the strategy developed to prevent Putin from invading Ukraine. Nobody was expecting a full revelation, but at least some key details.
Every answer was like a salad of words indifferently tossed together. There were long pauses between words and slight stutters which made it appear that she was ill-prepared and hence was winging it. Her usual staccato manner of speaking continued, making her sound like a speech-to-text mobile application.
Her body language lacked poise or confidence which is often the product of being ill-prepared. She failed to project any determination, or resoluteness which was key to communications in these situations such as these.
To sum it up, she did an abominable job of representing the US, the Biden administration, and even herself. It will undoubtedly cause leaders around the world to wonder “Is this the best they have got?
Her only triumph is that she didn’t burst into a fit of giggles at an inappropriate moment.
She will certainly not cause Putin to be deterred.
The situation on the Ukraine-Russia border is extremely critical. If war were to break out, matters could rapidly spiral out of control because Russia is a nuclear-armed state. At this juncture every syllable uttered matters. The least that is expected from someone in the position of Kamala Harris is to be prepared and use her words with unambiguous surgical precision. A clear message needed to be sent and confidence had to be projected.
Her performance in Munich adds to her record of poor communications. It has to be remembered that she struggled during interviews with friendly interviewers such as NBC’s Lester Holt, Craig Melvin, and even Charlamagne tha God. All these interviewers were liberal people of color, so Kamala could not have branded them as racist Republicans who are out to get her.
This brings us back to the reason why Biden’s handlers chose Kamala Harris as his running mate and hand her important assignments such as managing the border and alliance building in Ukraine.
For this, we revisit Curb Your Enthusiasm - Season 4. Mel Brook is depicted to be bored with his hit Broadway musical The Producers . He wants to move on to other things that will be more creatively satisfying but the show’s popularity won’t allow him that luxury. At this time he sees Larry David sing old tunes at a Karaoke bar.
Brooks offers Larry one of the leads in The Producers , which a very flattered David accepts. At the end of the season, it is revealed that Brooks thought Larry was such a catastrophe at the Karaoke that his performance would cause The Producers to flop badly and close down. He could finally move on. Larry was hence hired for his lack of talent, but almost nobody in the play knew of this.
The news media and experts saw Kamala as younger, energetic, and smarter than Biden, and hence an ideal replacement to become the first female President of color.
But Biden’s handlers saw Harris for what she really is, extraordinarily incompetent and unusually inarticulate, and above all, extremely unwilling and probably incapable of learning on the job.
They knew that once Harris was exposed before the people, her ineptness on all fronts would become instantly obvious. This means she presented no threat to Biden, whose incompetence is compounded by his rapidly declining cognitive abilities.
They were right, her approval ratings fell precipitously. She blamed it all on her gender and race , obviously!
Any other individual in Kamala’s place (such as Stacey Abrams, who was among the candidates short-listed) would have been making plans to unseat Biden using the 25th Amendment. But Kamala can barely keep her head above the water, so the question of an aggressive move to the very top is hence out of the question.. The result is that she has made Biden look unchallengeable. This was an astute but cynical political move by Biden’s handlers.
It seems obvious that the Washington Democrat Establishment had no intentions of resolving the border crises in the US or in Ukraine. In the US they want an influx of illegal aliens to alter the demographic map that will enable a permanent majority in government. On the Ukraine front, they want war perhaps due to their allies in the Military Industrial complex.
So, whom do they turn to for lots of activity but no actual achievement?
The one and only Kamala Harris.
She hasn’t disappointed them. They say the role of a vice president is to make the President look good. Kamala has unknowingly been stellar on that front, her incompetence has made Biden appear unimpeachable.

JD Vance: 'Don't Care What Happens to Ukraine,' I 'Care About' Mexican Fentanyl Crossing Our Border, Killing Americans
Author, venture capitalist, and U.S. Senate candidate for Ohio J.D. Vance. (Screenshot)
(CNS News) -- Celebrated author, venture capitalist, and Republican U.S. Senate candidate for Ohio J.D. Vance said he did not really care about what happens in Ukraine, but stressed that he does care about the massive amounts of fentanyl coming across America's southern border causing the deaths of thousands of Americans ages 18 to 45.
“I gotta be honest with you, I don’t really care what happens to Ukraine," Vance tweeted on Feb. 19.
"I do care about the fact that in my community right now the leading cause of death among 18-45 year olds is Mexican fentanyl that’s coming across the southern border.” @JDVance1 #OHSen
According to the Ohio Department of Health (ODH), "fentanyl was involved in 76% of overdose deaths in 2019, often in combination with other drugs. That percentage was up from 73% in 2018, 71% in 2017, and 58% in 2016."
In addition, "Fentanyl was involved in 82% of all heroin-related overdose deaths, 77% of all cocaine-related overdose deaths, and 72% of all psychostimulant/methamphetamine-related overdose deaths," said the ODH. "Carfentanil was involved in 508 fentanyl-related overdose deaths in 2019 compared with 75 in 2018."

According to the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistic s, fentanyl is a factor in more than 50% of overdose deaths, and "statistics indicate 42,700 fentanyl overdose deaths in 2020."
"Fentanyl is 50- to 300-times more potent than morphine," says the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics. "One kilogram of fentanyl contains 250,000 lethal doses."

As a record number of Americans died of drug overdoses in early 2021, Senate Democrats unanimously blocked an amendment that would have provided hundreds of millions of dollars in "opioid detection activities" at the southern border.
From April 2020 to April 2021, more than 100,000 Americans died from drug overdoses, according to data from the National Center for Health Statistics. An overwhelming majority of those deaths came from opioids, and fentanyl smuggling has surged at the southern border since the start of Joe Biden's presidency. In March, however, Senate Democrats blocked a Republican motion that would have provided "$300 million for U.S. Customs and Border Protection narcotic and opioid detection activities."
That vote came as border crossings that month reached the highest level in 15 years. Law enforcement experts have long warned that Mexican cartels ramp up their drug smuggling operations during periods when Border Patrol faces strained resources, a reflection of how the opioid and border crises are intertwined. Without more dedicated funding for policing, critics of Democratic immigration policies say, gangs south of the border will keep taking advantage of overwhelmed Border Patrol agents.
"In Del Rio, [Customs and Border Protection] went four months without apprehending any hard drugs at a time when we know fentanyl deaths are up, drug deaths are up, so the drugs have to be there," said Andrew Arthur, a former immigration judge and a fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies. "The obvious conclusion to draw is the agents are so overwhelmed in Del Rio they just don't have the opportunity to stop any drugs."
With little evidence that drug activity will recede barring a dramatic change in priorities from the Biden administration, swing-state Democrats will likely face a barrage of attacks on the issue in the lead-up to the 2022 midterm elections. Those who voted against the GOP opioid provision include Democratic senators from Georgia, New Hampshire, Nevada, and Arizona up for reelection next year. Those four states, much like the rest of the country, have seen opioid overdoses spike in the last several years.
In Arizona, where Sen. Mark Kelly will run for a second term, drug overdose deaths spiked by 33.5 percent in 2020 compared with the previous year. Kelly's office did not respond to a request for comment.
Kelly, like other vulnerable Democrats, has tried to toe a line between calling for more border security and appeasing his party's left-wing base. Even though Kelly voted down the anti-trafficking amendment, he pledged the next month to "continue holding this administration accountable" on immigration after he said the president's address to Congress failed to adequately address the border "crisis."
But Kelly has also voted down other amendments aimed at bolstering border security, including one in February that protected former president Donald Trump's "Remain in Mexico" policy and another in May that prohibited the Biden administration from canceling border wall contracts that had already received federal funds. Those votes prompted top border officials to accuse Kelly of merely paying "lip service" to the topic while avoiding concrete action.
"That's the main concern right now—his voting record is in lockstep with Schumer, it's in lockstep with Biden," National Border Patrol Council president Brandon Judd told the Washington Free Beacon in November. "We continue to have to deal with this chaos at the border, and we're just not getting any support from the Democrats, and that includes Kelly."
According to an October Quinnipiac poll, just 23 percent of Americans support Biden's handling of the "situation at the Mexican border," while 67 percent disapprove. Independent voters also named immigration as their second-most leading issue going into next year's midterm elections.
Are we going to prioritize the interests of liberals who want to replace our militant Normal voters with pliable foreigners and establishment stooges who want to please rich donors by importing countless cheap foreign laborers, or are we going to prioritize the economic security and the physical safety of American citizens by securing our border no matter what it takes?

THE NARCOMEX INVASION OF AMERICA…. By invitation of the Democrat Party
https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2018/11/trump-seeks-deal-with-narcomex-as.html
There are many reasons why, for the first time, the government of Mexico would agree to work cooperatively with the United States over an extremely serious immigration-related issue. It is likely, of course that President Trump was not just posturing when he said he would cut off aid to Mexico and other countries who permit the United States to be invaded by illegal aliens.
Under Guzman’s leadership, the Sinaloa Cartel became the largest drug trafficking organization in the world with influence in every major U.S. city.
The allegations against Pena Nieto are not new. In 2016, Breitbart News reported on an investigation by Mexican journalists which revealed how Juarez Cartel operators funneled money into the 2012 presidential campaign. The investigation was carried out by Mexican award-winning journalist Carmen Aristegui and her team….The subsequent scandal became known as “Monexgate” for the cash cards that were given out during Peña Nieto’s campaign. The allegations against Pena Nieto went largely unreported by U.S. news outlets.
New border wall forces smugglers to dig expensive tunnels and launch drones SAN DIEGO — Top U.S. border officials expect cartels to build more tunnels from Mexico to the United States and increasingly rely on drones for surveillance operations as the 400 miles of new border wall makes it harder to smuggle people and drugs into the country.
Transnational criminal organizations have long used tunnels and drones at the southwest border, but senior Border Patrol officials across the country are bracing for more activity as new 30-foot-tall barrier wall goes up in areas that have long been easy for criminals to cross.
“Don't be fooled into thinking that the cartels and smuggling organizations won't do whatever to try to adapt,” said Anthony Porvaznik, chief of the Border Patrol’s Yuma sector in western Arizona. “We fully expect to see more tunneling activity.”
“Smugglers are in the business to make money,” said Border Patrol’s national chief, Rodney Scott, during a one-on-one tour with the Washington Examiner of the Southern California region. “I definitely think they will, but again, we talk about the wall system all the time … because it's a 30-year, enduring investment that, without it, they wouldn't have to go to drones, they wouldn't have to go to tunnels, they wouldn't even have to go to the port of entry. They were just driving trucks across before, and the overhead expenses for them were significantly lower to just drive across.”
Three types of tunnels are seen on the southern border: rudimentary tunnels comparable to gopher holes that only go several feet deep; those that connect into existing infrastructure systems, like a drainage system; and sophisticated ones that can go as deep as 90 feet. Scott said federal investigators typically learn very early on about the elaborate kind of tunnels and intentionally do not bust them until they are almost complete.
“On average, it takes about a year for them to dig it. It takes engineers, and it takes a lot of money, so if we can literally keep them focused on pouring their money into a hole in the ground, we know about, we'll let it go until right at the end,” said Scott. “We just want to make sure no illegal substances or people get into the U.S.”
In August, federal agents announced the discovery of the “most sophisticated” tunnel ever found at the border. The tunnel was built 25 feet below the sandy grounds of Yuma, Ariz. It was far enough along that ventilation and rail systems had already been installed.

In August, federal agents announced the discovery of the “most sophisticated” tunnel ever found at the border. The tunnel was built 25 feet below the sandy grounds of Yuma, Arizona. It was far enough along that ventilation and rail systems had already been installed. Yuma border officials showed the tunnel to the Washington Examiner . Outside companies are remediating the tunnel, which includes filling it with concrete so that it cannot be used in the future.
Despite Yuma’s recent bust, the San Diego region’s soil composition makes it the most suitable for tunnel builders out of the nine regions by which the Border Patrol divides the southwest border.
“Here, it's soft, so they have to actually line it with wood and hold it up,” said Porvaznik, who is based in Arizona. “In San Diego, they can dig it out, and it's more clay-like material, so it'll stay.”
Yuma border officials showed a recently discovered cross-border tunnel to the Washington Examiner during a regional tour in late October. Outside companies are remediating the tunnel, which includes filling it with concrete so that it cannot be used in the future.

Border officials expected the wall to have an impact on tunneling and included in annual wall funding money for underground systems that can detect disturbances in the soil. In Southern California, Border Patrol has a team that tracks tunnel activity. Border Patrol San Diego Chief Aaron Heitke said intelligence specialists map out warehouses located near the border and go door to door to meet with business owners to get a feel for who may be a threat. The team takes an overt approach, out in public and by asking businesses if they see unusual activity to tip off the Department of Homeland Security. The task force can also track imports and exports, as well as taxes filed to the Internal Revenue Service, to see if a business is a front or conducting legitimate trade.
The tunnel found near Yuma, Ariz., had a rail system built inside that would have been used to move contraband from Mexico into the United States.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement
“We’re literally kind of mapping out like, ‘Sony has been here forever. It's a legitimate business. We've never had any problems. It's a lower threat,'” said Scott, who previously oversaw the San Diego region. “This warehouse — you’ve got seven businesses in different suites that have been here for years. We know them. They call, they don’t, whatever — you kind of gauge it. And this one turns over every 30 days, every 60 days. That's something we're going to watch.”
In El Paso, where tunnels are less prevalent because of the river and canal systems, agents constantly see drones flying over from Mexico.
“All day long — 24/7 in this area — there’s drones going up and down,” said Border Patrol's El Paso division chief for operations, Walter Slozar. “They’re not using them to smuggle things yet ... We can even tell like when one goes up, ‘Oh, when that one goes up, that’s when something happens over here.'”
Drones surveil agents on the ground and inform smugglers when to send migrants over the border and when agents may be wrapped up elsewhere.
The western Arizona and eastern California regions are also seeing a heavy use of drones but for the smuggling of drugs over the wall. Porvaznik said drones will make up to 30 trips back and forth each night, carrying approximately a kilogram of drugs northbound.
Porvaznik points to a framed photograph in his office that shows an “octocopter,” an eight-propeller unmanned aerial system that goes for $16,000. Border Patrol’s aerial surveillance trucks detected it flying through U.S. airspace near the border transporting 25 pounds of cocaine over the border.
“It’s dark, and they’re silent,” said Porvaznik. “We've had numerous instances of drones working in [the] San Luis area, bringing over load after load, and they just keep making trips all night. At times, they overload them, and they crash. And so, our agents have found them with dope strapped to them."
Yuma agents have been able to track where some drugs are dropped and then pursue drivers who transport it. Agents do not have a way to force a drone and are still in the process of detecting them.

Nine people were arrested in raids targeting 75 locations, and $90 million was seized — $70 million in cash. In one condo, agents found $35 million stuffed in banker boxes. At a mansion in Bel-Air, they discovered $10 million in duffel bags.

Those four states, much like the rest of the country, have seen opioid overdoses spike in the last several years.
In Arizona, where Sen. Mark Kelly will run for a second term, drug overdose deaths spiked by 33.5 percent in 2020 compared with the previous year. Kelly's office did not respond to a request for comment.
Kelly, like other vulnerable Democrats, has tried to toe a line between calling for more border security and appeasing his party's left-wing base. Even though Kelly voted down the anti-trafficking amendment, he pledged the next month to "continue holding this administration accountable" on immigration after he said the president's address to Congress failed to adequately address the border "crisis."
But Kelly has also voted down other amendments aimed at bolstering border security, including one in February that protected former president Donald Trump's "Remain in Mexico" policy and another in May that prohibited the Biden administration from canceling border wall contracts that had already received federal funds. Those votes prompted top border officials to accuse Kelly of merely paying "lip service" to the topic while avoiding concrete action.
"That's the main concern right now—his voting record is in lockstep with Schumer, it's in lockstep with Biden," National Border Patrol Council president Brandon Judd told the Washington Free Beacon in November. "We continue to have to deal with this chaos at the border, and we're just not getting any support from the Democrats, and that includes Kelly."
According to an October Quinnipiac poll, just 23 percent of Americans support Biden's handling of the "situation at the Mexican border," while 67 percent disapprove. Independent voters also named immigration as their second-most leading issue going into next year's midterm elections.
Are we going to prioritize the interests of liberals who want to replace our militant Normal voters with pliable foreigners and establishment stooges who want to please rich donors by importing countless cheap foreign laborers, or are we going to prioritize the economic security and the physical safety of American citizens by securing our border no matter what it takes?

THE NARCOMEX INVASION OF AMERICA…. By invitation of the Democrat Party

There are many reasons why, for the first time, the government of Mexico would agree to work cooperatively with the United States over an extremely serious immigration-related issue. It is likely, of course that President Trump was not just posturing when he said he would cut off aid to Mexico and other countries who permit the United States to be invaded by illegal aliens.
Under Guzman’s leadership, the Sinaloa Cartel became the largest drug trafficking organization in the world with influence in every major U.S. city.
The allegations against Pena Nieto are not new. In 2016, Breitbart News reported on an investigation by Mexican journalists which revealed how Juarez Cartel operators funneled money into the 2012 presidential campaign. The investigation was carried out by Mexican award-winning journalist Carmen Aristegui and her team….The subsequent scandal became known as “Monexgate” for the cash cards that were given out during Peña Nieto’s campaign. The allegations against Pena Nieto went largely unreported by U.S. news outlets.
New border wall forces smugglers to dig expensive tunnels and launch drones SAN DIEGO — Top U.S. border officials expect cartels to build more tunnels from Mexico to the United States and increasingly rely on drones for surveillance operations as the 400 miles of new border wall makes it harder to smuggle people and drugs into the country.
Transnational criminal organizations have long used tunnels and drones at the southwest border, but senior Border Patrol officials across the country are bracing for more activity as new 30-foot-tall barrier wall goes up in areas that have long been easy for criminals to cross.
“Don't be fooled into thinking that the cartels and smuggling organizations won't do whatever to try to adapt,” said Anthony Porvaznik, chief of the Border Patrol’s Yuma sector in western Arizona. “We fully expect to see more tunneling activity.”
“Smugglers are in the business to make money,” said Border Patrol’s national chief, Rodney Scott, during a one-on-one tour with the Washington Examiner of the Southern California region. “I definitely think they will, but again, we talk about the wall system all the time … because it's a 30-year, enduring investment that, without it, they wouldn't have to go to drones, they wouldn't have to go to tunnels, they wouldn't even have to go to the port of entry. They were just driving trucks across before, and the overhead expenses for them were significantly lower to just drive across.”
Three types of tunnels are seen on the southern border: rudimentary tunnels comparable to gopher holes that only go several feet deep; those that connect into existing infrastructure systems, like a drainage system; and sophisticated ones that can go as deep as 90 feet. Scott said federal investigators typically learn very early on about the elaborate kind of tunnels and intentionally do not bust them until they are almost complete.
“On average, it takes about a year for them to dig it. It takes engineers, and it takes a lot of money, so if we can literally keep them focused on pouring their money into a hole in the ground, we know about, we'll let it go until right at the end,” said Scott. “We just want to make sure no illegal substances or people get into the U.S.”
In August, federal agents announced the discovery of the “most sophisticated” tunnel ever found at the border. The tunnel was built 25 feet below the sandy grounds of Yuma, Ariz. It was far enough along that ventilation and rail systems had already been installed.

In August, federal agents announced the discovery of the “most sophisticated” tunnel ever found at the border. The tunnel was built 25 feet below the sandy grounds of Yuma, Arizona. It was far enough along that ventilation and rail systems had already been installed. Yuma border officials showed the tunnel to the Washington Examiner . Outside companies are remediating the tunnel, which includes filling it with concrete so that it cannot be used in the future.
Despite Yuma’s recent bust, the San Diego region’s soil composition makes it the most suitable for tunnel builders out of the nine regions by which the Border Patrol divides the southwest border.
“Here, it's soft, so they have to actually line it with wood and hold it up,” said Porvaznik, who is based in Arizona. “In San Diego, they can dig it out, and it's more clay-like material, so it'll stay.”

Border officials expected the wall to have an impact on tunneling and included in annual wall funding money for underground systems that can detect disturbances in the soil. In Southern California, Border Patrol has a team that tracks tunnel activity. Border Patrol San Diego Chief Aaron Heitke said intelligence specialists map out warehouses located near the border and go door to door to meet with business owners to get a feel for who may be a threat. The team takes an overt approach, out in public and by asking businesses if they see unusual activity to tip off the Department of Homeland Security. The task force can also track imports and exports, as well as taxes filed to the Internal Revenue Service, to see if a business is a front or conducting legitimate trade.
The tunnel found near Yuma, Ariz., had a rail system built inside that would have been used to move contraband from Mexico into the United States.

“We’re literally kind of mapping out like, ‘Sony has been here forever. It's a legitimate business. We've never had any problems. It's a lower threat,'” said Scott, who previously oversaw the San Diego region. “This warehouse — you’ve got seven businesses in different suites that have been here for years. We know them. They call, they don’t, whatever — you kind of gauge it. And this one turns over every 30 days, every 60 days. That's something we're going to watch.”
In El Paso, where tunnels are less prevalent because of the river and canal systems, agents constantly see drones flying over from Mexico.
“All day long — 24/7 in this area — there’s drones going up and down,” said Border Patrol's El Paso division chief for operations, Walter Slozar. “They’re not using them to smuggle things yet ... We can even tell like when one goes up, ‘Oh, when that one goes up, that’s when something happens over here.'”
Drones surveil agents on the ground and inform smugglers when to send migrants over the border and when agents may be wrapped up elsewhere.
The western Arizona and eastern California regions are also seeing a heavy use of drones but for the smuggling of drugs over the wall. Porvaznik said drones will make up to 30 trips back and forth each night, carrying approximately a kilogram of drugs northbound.
Porvaznik points to a framed photograph in his office that shows an “octocopter,” an eight-propeller unmanned aerial system that goes for $16,000. Border Patrol’s aerial surveillance trucks detected it flying through U.S. airspace near the border transporting 25 pounds of cocaine over the border.
“It’s dark, and they’re silent,” said Porvaznik. “We've had numerous instances of drones working in [the] San Luis area, bringing over load after load, and they just keep making trips all night. At times, they overload them, and they crash. And so, our agents have found them with dope strapped to them."
Yuma agents have been able to track where some drugs are dropped and then pursue drivers who transport it. Agents do not have a way to force a drone and are still in the process of detecting them.

"While other witnesses at Mr. Guzmán’s trial in Federal District Court in Brooklyn have testified about huge payoffs from traffickers to the Mexican police and public officials, the testimony about Mr. Peña Nieto was the most egregious allegation yet. If true, it suggests that corruption by drug cartels had reached into the highest level of Mexico’s political establishment." The former president of Mexico, Enrique Peña Nieto, took a $100 million bribe from Joaquín Guzmán Loera, the infamous crime lord known as El Chapo, according to a witness at Mr. Guzman’s trial.

Federal agents raided Q.T Fashion and numerous other businesses in the downtown fashion district Wednesday, cracking down on a scheme that cartels are increasingly relying on to get their profits — from drug sales, kidnappings and other illegal activities — back to Mexico, authorities said.
Nine people were arrested in raids targeting 75 locations, and $90 million was seized — $70 million in cash. In one condo, agents found $35 million stuffed in banker boxes. At a mansion in Bel-Air, they discovered $10 million in duffel bags.
"Los Angeles has become the epicenter of narco-dollar money laundering with couriers regularly bringing duffel bags and suitcases full of cash to many businesses," said Robert E. Dugdale, the assistant U.S. attorney in charge of federal criminal prosecutions in Los Angeles.

“Heroin is not produced in the United States. Every gram of heroin present in the United States provides unequivocal evidence of a failure of border security because every gram of heroin was smuggled into the United States. Indeed, this is precisely a point that Attorney General Jeff Sessions made during his appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on October 18, 2017 when he again raised the need to secure the U.S./Mexican border to protect American lives.” Michael Cutler …..
