SHOWDOWN IN ANIMAS

Several hundred ranchers, the New Mexico Congressional Delegation and officials from public security agencies such as the Border Patrol, U.S. Army, National Guard and border-county sheriffs, all met in the New Mexico town of Animas last week to talk about our broken border with Mexico.  “The border isn’t secure,” said Bill McDonald, co-founder and executive director of the Malpai Borderlands Group, which manages a working cattle ranch and conservation effort on nearly 1 million acres of the Bootheel. “It’s like a balloon. When they tamp down in one area, (drug traffickers) move somewhere else. They’ve got all the technology to move where they see a weakness and right now the weakness is in southwest New Mexico.”

COMMENTS:
Hopefully, they’ll all vote for Trump, because no one else in the presidential race seems to be interested. 
 
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. What are your thoughts about Lindsey Graham doing a 180 and supporting Cruz?  (Verna ~ Denver, CO)
A. It seems like virtually every loser in the country is being attracted to the Cruz camp. 

Q. How can a cell phone just catch on fire, like what happened last week on an airplane?  (Ole ~ Madison, WI)
A. It must have been a hot telephone call.  Lithium batteries make me nervous, especially since they’re now using them in rectal thermometers. 

Q. I’m surprised that Obama put forth such a moderate name for his Supreme Court nominee as Merrick Garland.  Why do you think he did that?  (Chelsea ~ Arlington, TX)
A. I think the only guy calling Garland a “moderate” is Barack Obama.  Garland is definitely not in favor of the Second Amendment, for example.  Garland clerked for the Supreme Court’s liberal icon, Justice William Brennan, and was reportedly considered for a cabinet post in President Obama’s administration.  He has also has demonstrated a remarkable level of hostility toward the right to keep and bear arms, voting to uphold D.C.’s very restrictive gun restrictions and siding with the federal government in its plan to retain Americans’ personal information from background checks for firearm purchases.  Obviously, you can’t judge a Judge by his robe.
