Secure Borders
Progress Made, Battles Ahead
Progress made at the southern border of the United States stands as a testament to what determined leadership can achieve. During President Trump’s first term, we witnessed border crossings plummet to their lowest levels in four decades—a staggering feat driven by policy, resolve, and the bold initiation of a border wall. This partial barrier, though incomplete, proved its worth as a proof of concept, slashing illegal crossings in key sectors. Within the first month of Trump’s second term, encounters moved towards flatlining numbers encountering less than 8,000 last month.
But Zero Crossings Does Not Mean Zero Encounters!
Yet, as we celebrate this progress, the work is far from over. The specter of unchecked migration, narco-terrorism, and human trafficking looms large, while new threats emerge along our northern frontier. To secure our nation for generations, we must double down on a comprehensive border security strategy that leaves no vulnerability unaddressed.
Just look at the alarming discovery of migrants exploiting El Paso's storm drains!
To prevent a Huns-like southern invasion—whether by narco-terrorists, Islamic extremists, or sophisticated cartel operatives—we need a multi-layered approach. First, complete the southern border wall, extending its coverage to high-traffic areas and reinforcing it with advanced technology. Drones, motion sensors, and AI-driven surveillance can create a virtual fence, detecting breach attempts before they occur. Second, bolster manpower. CBP and Border Patrol need more agents, better training, and cutting-edge tools to counter the advanced tactics of cartel-funded border penetrators, who pose the greatest threat to national security.
But the southern border is only half the story. Our northern border, spanning over 5,500 miles, is emerging as an increasing vulnerability. Canada, particularly British Columbia, has become a hub for fentanyl production and trafficking, with the DEA noting a surge in synthetic opioids crossing into the Pacific Northwest. Unlike the south, this border is vast, rugged, and largely under-patrolled, making it a prime target for smugglers and bad actors. Ignoring this shift would be a grave mistake.
With unified resolve, we can build a total border security infrastructure—physical, technological, and human—that ensures operational control for the next 250 years. Congress must prioritize appropriations for the wall, surveillance systems, and agent recruitment, while enforcing laws without apology.
The flatlining of southern border encounters is a victory to celebrate, but it’s not the finish line. Let’s secure both borders, protect our communities, and preserve the United States as a sovereign, thriving nation for generations to come.

I was stationed at Camp Pendleton in the late 70's to 80's. Marines would go to Tiawana, the boarder town, to party, chase wild women, and buy drugs. The city was full of crime, but if they went in large groups they were relatively safe. It was when 1 or 2 would go down walking into a bar that trouble started. The bartender would serve them a drink then call the Federales. When the Federales arrived, they give a signal they were waiting outside the door, and some Mexicans in the bar would start beating up the Marine who'd try and defend himself. The Federales would rush through the door and arrest the Marine, not the Mexican's who started the fight because it was a scam operation. The Federales would throw the Marine in jail, call HQ Camp Pendleton and demand the US pay $100,000 for damages and they'd release the Marine to return to base. They made boat loads of money with that scam operation. In the early 2000's I read about how college students would go to a bar in Tiawana asking to buy ecstasy. The bar tender would arrange it and have them taken to a back room to make the deal. Days later their credit cards were maxed out, bank accounts deleted, and identity sold on the black market, but the child would never be seen or heard from again. Parents would beg the US and Mexican's to help locate their child, but both would refuse to do anything because they knew the child was dead. My wife wanted to go there shopping so I took her. The US guard at the boarder said buddy, I'd advise you not to go down there and park, you'll never see your vehicle again. He said I should have parked on the US side. I asked to do a Uturn but he said no can do, I had to go south to thus street, turn east to thus street, back north to thus street, then west to get back on the highway to get back on the US side, park and take the walking bridge over the fence and be sure to shop only where a lot of US citizens are, don't venture off with anyone who tries to lure you away, you'll be robbed and dead. He told me as I drove the route to get back to the US side that men will try and get me to stop, but don't stop for anyone, you'll never make it out alive if you do. He wasn't joking, as I headed west all kinds of men came out surrounding the car jumping up and down on the hood screaming at us through the windshield, and beating on the car as they surrounded us trying to get us to stop. My wife cried saying stop or you'll run someone over, I said no, I'm moving slow enough they can move out of the way, if I stop they'll put those tire irons on the lug nuts and we'll be dead like the gate guard said. It was by the grace of God that He kept them from breaking our windows and stealing everything as they killed us. But hey, the democrats decided to take donations from the drug cartels so they brought that evil to US soil without fear of prosecution. Don't think I'm going to listen to their lies trying to make the US out to be the bad corrupt people and their the innocent victims just looking for a better life. Some are God fearing people, but many are not and are ruled by the drug lords. Thank God for the Trump administration doing something to stop the insanity or we'd soon become a 3rd world hell hole full of gross immorality and crime ruling everywhere.
