American Army Decide To Send 1500 Troops To Mexico Border

The Pentagon announced plans to deploy up to 1,500 active duty troops to assist in securing the US-Mexico border in the near future. This decision is part of a broader initiative outlined in executive orders by President Donald Trump shortly after he took office, aimed at strengthening immigration enforcement.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasized that this deployment reflects a commitment to the priorities of the American people regarding homeland security. Acting Defense Secretary Robert Salesses was anticipated to sign the deployment orders on Wednesday; however, details regarding the specific troops or units involved and the final number are still uncertain.

Additionally, it remains unclear whether these troops will engage in law enforcement activities, a shift that would represent a significant change in their traditional role.
