White House Authorizes Lethal Force At The Border


President Trump's chief of staff John Kelly signed a memo late Tuesday allowing troops stationed at
the border to act in a law enforcement capacity and use lethal force, if necessary, according to Tara Copp of Military Times.

The new “Cabinet order” was signed by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, not President Donald Trump. It allows “Department of Defense military personnel” to “perform those military protective activities that the Secretary of Defense determines are reasonably necessary” to protect border agents, including “a show or use of force (including lethal force, where necessary), crowd control, temporary detention. and cursory search.”

  2. Yeah BECKY!! That right there is a COMMANDER IN CHIEF. The protection of our Nation is JOB #1 for POTUS!! Federal judges be damned. They want to start some crap have them arrested by the Federal Marshals, and held in contempt, obstruction of a sitting President, or Treason. Separation of Powers, Stop pussy-footing around. The FIRST Constitutional Duty of the President, and the EXECUTIVE BRANCH.

    Disclaimer: I am not a Lawyer, but I dated a Para Legal once. We spent the weekend in a Holiday Inn. The lil Tart could recite every TORT.

    I hope everyone had a GREAT THANKSGIVING!! There is Plenty that we can all be thankful for; Hillary isn't our Commander in Chief.
