🚔 Troops Are Coming! Trump Deploys Military to the Southern Border
In a dramatic escalation following his national emergency declaration, President Donald Trump has ordered the immediate deployment of U.S. troops to the southern border — and El Paso is one of the key targets. The order includes hundreds of active-duty soldiers and National Guard units, tasked with reinforcing border security, constructing physical barriers, and supporting law enforcement operations. Military vehicles, surveillance drones, and temporary encampments are already being spotted near border towns. Trump announced the decision during a fiery press conference, stating: “This is a matter of national survival. We will secure our borders with all necessary force.” While supporters praised the move as a strong step toward restoring control, critics slammed it as a militarization of civilian life, pointing out that troops are being used against desperate migrants rather than foreign enemies. Locals in El Paso expressed mixed reactions — some welcomed the added security, while others described an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty, especially among immigrant communities. This deployment marks one of the largest military operations on domestic soil in recent history — and it's just getting started.
