On Friday Trump designated the Roosevelt Reservation along the Southern boarder of the US from California to Texas and other Federal Lands under military control. The terrain is rugged, lots of hills and areas illegal immigrants are smuggled into the US from Mexico by Coyotes.

Trump is putting America First and protecting our Southern Boarders from Invasion and from those who seek to do irreputable harm.
