In preparation for a surge of illegal immigrants as Title 42 expires, Biden is sending thousands of troops to the southern border.
From The Hill. The Biden administration is planning to temporarily deploy 1,500 active-duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico border ahead of an expected surge in migrants.

The announcement comes as Title 42, a policy that allows for the rapid expulsion of migrants at the border and blocks them from seeking asylum, is set to expire May 11.
A U.S. official told The Hill the troops would be deployed for 90 days to assist with work including ground-based detection and monitoring, data entry, and warehouse support, but they would not be doing law enforcement work. …
In March, U.S. officials encountered more than 191,000 migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border; administration officials have said they expect that number to go up significantly with the end of Title 42.
Last week, the agency announced that in response to the end of Title 42, it plans to carry out expedited deportations using Title 8 authorities and establish two regional centers in Guatemala and Colombia, where migrants can apply for asylum on other avenues to immigrate to the U.S.
Biden administration officials say the stiffer penalties of Title 8 removals — which carry a five-year bar on entering the United States — as well as better avenues to seek legal pathways to enter the U.S., will relieve pressure at the border.
It is not unheard of for presidents to send troops to the border.
“DOD personnel have been supporting CBP at the border for almost two decades now, so this is a common practice, if you will,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Tuesday.
“What’s different is that these are active-duty troops. Not National Guard,” said Adam Isacson, director of defense oversight at the Washington Office on Latin America. “Trump sent active-duty troops to the border during the caravans in 2018, but Biden took them away.” …

Please Lord God help Government leaders gather wisdom to secure our southern borders in order to provide protection to America’s citizens in keeping out the evil that has greatly affected our country already 🙏!
Thank you, President Biden for sending troops to help restore order to our border. We need more help to restore order.
I pray for the bill in Texas that would declare an invasion status and that the states can take appropriate action. As far as this sending troops to the border, anything done by the present administration is questionable. I declare the Lord’s blueprints to solve this border invasion and for appropriate exposure and prosecution to come to bring justice to our governmental system. If federal power turns into tyranny, the states have the biblical and constitutional right to resist and take appropriate action like in the Revolutionary War. We have covenant with Almighty God. I declare and decree appropriate action orchestrated by King Jesus, the cloud of witnesses, the good angels, and the ekklesia, and the courts of heaven to stop this invasion. I declare and degree America will soon have secure borders in Jesus Name,
I pray for peace , divine wisdom and intervention in Jesus’s name.
