The Water Fence
Timothy Birdnow
The Trump Administration wants to put up a buoy barrier in the Rio Grande to stop illegal aliens from swimming across the the U.S.
The plan is to cover 980 miles of river with the water-based barrier to keep the world from backstroking it's way into the country. Such defensive systems have often been used in warfare to stop invading armadas from getting too close. One prime example of this was the chain barriers around Constantinople which thwarted multiple Turkish attempts in the latter days of the Byzantine empire. It works.
And it must be remembered the Texas government built one of it's own during the Biden era, only to be overruled by President Autopen who forced the Texans to remove it.
The project is being funded by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act which authorized such defenses.
These buoys will have sensors to alert authorities to unauthorized crossings.
The problem with this and any other actions taken to secure the border by the Trump Administration is that it is all being done by executive order; there are no real permanent solutions passing through Congress. Without laws forcing border enforcement any future Democrat or a Republican Administration like the George W. Bush Fiestathon can simply tear this down and reopen the border. We need to make it harder to do that and politically embarrassing. Now it's just the stroke of the autopen and voila! The North American Union returns in all it's tragedy.
But we can't make this permanent with the current makeup of Congress; that has to change. And apparently, if polls are to be believed, the GOP looks to take a bath in the upcoming elections as the media has convinced the public inflation is TRUMP'S fault and that it is rising when in fact it is dropping precipitously. The media has convinced the public that deflation is the only solution to inflation, not economic growth and rising wages.
At any rate this is a good idea but it is vulnerable and will be for some time. If the GOP loses Congress no doubt the Democrats will defund this and demand it be ended. Time is not on our side.
The Examiner article concludes:
Yeah; that's the important thing, to waste this money on the rathole known as Obamacare. The money used here will be a pittance compared to what we are spending on the (Un)Affordable Care Act, but this sounds good to Democrats and the entitled and the bribed.
BTW I think we should have drones associated with this and use pepper spray and other such non-lethal weapons on anyone trying to cross the Rio Grande. If the sensors go off we should dispatch a drone and mace them and maybe they will get the message. But of course the media would go ballistic. They never cared when Conservatives were getting pepper sprayed on J6 - in fact they loved that. But try spraying groups of invaders and watch them scream about due process and moral decency! Hypocrites.

"Leftists disapproved of the security plan, with Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., claiming it was a "vanity project.”
He said the money should have instead been spent subsidizing health-care premiums."
