They don&#8217;t mention which way the flow will be stemmed, though. I suspect it&#8217;d be more advantageous for this administration to keep the illegals here rather than let them return to their homes.<\/p>\n<p>And I guess a whole bunch of new assets are forthcoming from the Homeland Security Department;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Napolitano announced that hundreds of additional Border Patrol agents and customs officers are being deployed to prowl the Arizona outback and operate inspection stations. She said Immigration and Customs Enforcement will open a new office in Ajo. And the Department of Homeland Security is sending a new team to Douglas.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are also reassigning major technology assets, including mobile surveillance systems, thermal-imaging binocular units, and trucks equipped with detection scopes, as well as observation and utility aircraft,&#8221; Napolitano said in a guest column in Monday&#8217;s Arizona Republic.<\/p>\n<p>A government official, who declined to be named because he was not authorized to divulge details, said the secretary is assigning more than 300 Border Patrol agents and port inspectors to the Tucson Sector. In addition, 100 ICE personnel will be added statewide. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>See, this is what I&#8217;ve been wondering; where have these federal agents been this whole time that they can be torn away from their current jobs and be sent to Arizona? Were they all just standing around the water cooler waiting for the call? Ya know the call announcing there is a problem that must be solved immediately? A problem someone just noticed a minute ago?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The USAToday is reporting that National Guard troops will begin arriving on the Arizona to &#8220;stem &hellip; <a title=\"NG troops to deploy to border\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=19787\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">NG troops to deploy to border<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19787","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama","category-illegal-immigrants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19787","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=19787"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19787\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19787"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=19787"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=19787"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
