they have criminals and gangs people from Somalia and Afghanistan,. They don't plan on coming legally they know they won't get asylum being criminals. Marines are ready if they decide to storm the border like they did in Mexico killing one officer.

The Army shouldn't be at the border to stop refugees. I hope they will be able to help them with food, and see to their needs. That's what the Army did after the war if they could. I thank all military, to help Europe be freed from the bloody Nazi's.

THANK YOU GUYS FOR FIGHTING & PROTECTING THE USA!! NOW & ALWAYS!!

Why is it when Trump pulls something like this no Trump supporter in sight but yet when Trump does something that only slightly helps they praise him like he somehow a good president.

It's called down time asshats

😂😂😂😂😂😂 Nothing, just I remember that Houthi was a Washington Post writer.

45 is so worried about this 'invasion' that he sends troops then jets off to France to embarrass us further. Can't get to ceremony (that other world leaders got to) b/c of rain. His helicopter couldn't fly. Couldn't go by car b/c he wanted to make an entrance!

This is what Trump had reduced our future veterans to! Warding off desperate men, women and children!

Call it what it is WP! Total bullshit.

What a waste of resources...so not needed...

What card game are they playing?

It's not outrageous to secure the Martin's border from illegal entry. If you lock your doors at night, you get it.

What a waste of their time and our taxpayer money!

This costly stunt for the 2018 elections is infuriating. My friend’s son will be missing his first thanksgiving with his new daughter because of this nonsense.

Check out tt_cube’s Tweet:

Protect the homeland

Waste of our troops time.

This was a joke! It was that dumb idiot of a president pulling a political scam again! This is what's wrong with the country, it's this president that is causing chaos threatening citizens of America and abusing our allies! This man is a danger to your and my kids. Impeachment!

Yuge waste of taxpayer dollars. What a con job on the American people.

Pakistan’s army is to blame for the poverty of the country’s 208m citizensThe persistence of poverty and maladministration is not only a disaster for Pakistan—it poses a danger for the world too End up having to start a War to justify all this. Hello Economist: I am the United States. I have a TRILLION dollar defense budget. That is more than all the other nations in the world combined. AND I have 25% of the world's prison population, and only 5% of the world's people population. Pakistan loses! This makes sense inasmuch as Pakistan's military is main beneficiary in ongoing struggle w/India. Reminds one of Soviet & American military-industrial complexes during Cold War; one had raison d'etre to exist b/c of other. Gandhi never envisioned a separate India & Pakistan. SAD.
