“When we requested that we stop training because someone had died … we were told to 'shut the f— up, sit there and keep doing your job' as if nothing happened,” the guard member told TPR. “We had made a request for chest seals, trauma supplies like tourniquets — stuff like that. … We were told that there was 'no need for those supplies at this time.' So they were denied. … This is immediately following a servicemember being shot in the back and dying.”

He said that he would stay on the border for as long as he was needed there — that’s what he’ll do to serve.

How do you put your helmet on over the horns when you're so incredibly cucked.

"The biden admin argues the border is under federal control" jesus fucking christ is is one one of the most basic things in the constitution. The president controls the border. It's not in question.

Bunch of fucking dorks. Imagine, fucking imagine, putting up with deployed big army bullshit in texas because Greg Abbot feels threatened by apparently the roofing and cabbage industries or some unhinged fascist bs.

I recall most illegal immigration in the US happens by plane, gun trafficking uses legally bought guns, and drug trafficking happens through multiple channels and not just the border lol
