Border
Recycling old AF stuff
This adds a bit to AW1Ed’s column of deploying assets on our southern flank. The Air Force is finding some love for assets many of you probably thought had gone away. U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Allvin has confirmed that U-2 Dragon Lady spy planes have been flying missions around the […]
‘Splodey Escalation Thursday
Let’s lead off with a significant escalation on our border: Antonio Céspedes Saldierna, 74, a Texas rancher who worked on both sides of the border, was driving near his ranch in Tamaulipas, Mexico, just south of Brownsville, Texas, when he was killed by an IED, KRGV-TV reported.

Natl Guard Chief says NG troops defending border is a waste of time
The Chief of the National Guard Bureau, General Daniel Hokanson, testified to Congress that the NG troops deployed to protect the southern border isn’t a militarily relevant mission.

A bill aimed at booting illegal immigrants out of the U.S. if they assault a police officer passed the House of Representatives on Wednesday evening. It’s one of several pieces of legislation that House Republican leaders are putting up for a […]
Saturday Security
First up: Mexican President Maduro Obrador has made some unusual demands on us lately. I’m sure you are aware he is suing gun companies (claiming that PLCAA does not cover foreign governments so they can sue us for their gun violence – despite there only being ONE government controlled gun store in the whole country.) […]
Drone incursions from Mexico into the US reached alarming levels
Cartel groups in Mexico are no strangers to the use of drones, including weaponized drones. Ukraine has shown how a weaker nation, or groups within a weaker nation, could wreak havoc on a more powerful military. Two military generals testified at a Senate hearing related to the border. One of the issues reported to the […]
