It could be argued that the Guard gets their pittance no matter where they are.

The whole army/NG thing confuses me. For some reason I thought that the NG was under the jurisdiction of the various governors. I.e., when there's a natural disaster like a flood or massive wildfire or the like, the governor of that state will often summon the NG to go help the ppl. It's a temporary thing, usually. I had assumed that since it was the state's leader who called them up, that the expense of their lodging and other necessities came out of the state coffers. It doesn't? How does it work then? And what happens if this turns into a long-term occupation at the border, rather than a temporary situation?

Interesting.... a country occupying itself.

Not sure how it works w/respect to states, but I'm guessing the governors 'invite' the Feds to deploy the Guard. For the most part, military are paid 24/7, with other pay for deployments, etc.

No one expects the wall to be 100% effective you sophomoric imbecile. It will greatly reduce the number of successful illegal crossings.

Amazing! The same argument I’ve been giving about gun control that you and your moronic NRA buddies have been soiling yourselves about.

Go figure, huh, shitsalot?

I wonder who's paying for these troops to be stationed there? The states that they're in? The feds (i.e. you and me)?

If the president calls up the guard we all pay for it. Not so hard to figure out twit.

Mexican citizens don't have a Constitutional right to enter the US. Gee, it was even easier than usual to rebut your nonsense. Maybe your coffee hasn't kicked in yet.
