So how do we feel about Gov Noem sending National Guard to the Southern Border?

They were just tourists petitioning their government for redress of grievances.

Hello Portland! Kenosha! Minneapolis! Baltimore! Where have you been?

Aw, just a few minor kerfuffles at worst, amiright?

I was riffing on the Senator who called them tourists.

But I suppose since the Constitution didn’t spell out exactly how petitions for redress of grievances were to happen, one could say rioting and breaking into Congress to disrupt it is a power that the Constitution via the 9th Amendment stated was reserved for the states or the people.

Numerous deaths because of the kerfuffles started by groups your party endorsed.

CNN’s Dana Bash on Kristi Noem deploying National Guard troops paid by a GOP donor: “Would you use political donation to send your troops to the border?”

Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson: “Not for this purpose… I would consider it a bad precedent to have it privately funded.”

Noem deems the Biden admin disastrous border policy hazardous to her state doesnt she have the right to do what protects her state?

The Biden Administration is busing and flying illegal immigrants into various states across the country. It’s insane to imagine that a US administration has decided to dump the poverty and problems from various countries into US states so that their taxpayers now have to deal with it.

Plus billions in damages.

This is pretty interesting. Why are we outraged by this? Is it because they’re National Guard?

Thanks. A little more to it, huh?

he says it’s a bad precedent.

DougBH · 2021-07-04T16:17:46.425Z

Sending national guard to our border is a plus. If someone helps make that possible by donating funds, great. Wouldn’t it be great if people would be willing to fund all government functions by choice instead of by threat of prosecution?
Now, as to the complaint of this action having a political function as a side…if it draws attention to the willful failure of our federal government to protect our border, that’s a great side benefit.

Yeah, he does. And some other stuff.

What would we say if it was to process them in?

This ineffectual stunt paid for by a super donor has nothing to do with a future Presidential run.

Pure horse ■■■■■

If the ineffectual idiots in the White House were doing their damn jobs none of the rest of this would be necessary. Biden and Harris have thrown the southern border into chaos with their complete incompetence.

This is on the two idiots you voted for, not in the Governors who are responding to the Biden Border Crisis.

It’s not incompetence if this is what they want.
