There may be another way to find out where these goons are from

[CanonRay]

DHS is saying the storm troopers are from Border Patrol but do we really know? If true, they must be detailed to Portland from their actual assigned duty stations. Maybe some enterprising reporters could go to the large border stations and interview some employees to see if large numbers of agents have been detailed out.

Just an idea.

1. Why would the other brownshirt goons answer the reporters' questions honestly?

They'll just deny or say no comment.

4. They might not

On the other hand they aren't directly involved since they are still on the border. There are other employees who might know, bartenders at the cop hangout joints. Spouses might talk, who knows?

2. Note to Pelosi: draft a law prohibiting a presidential personal assault squad

5. What about the Senate?

They would never take up anything democrats want?

6. Yea was thinking of the running list of "anti Trump"

...laws that need to be written after he is gone and Dems have control of all branches.
In all ways he has circumvented democracy, we must pass laws to prevent it from happening again.

3. A caravan of aliens could be crossing the border while these

assholes are patrolling inland far from our border. They could grab one like they grab us to find out who they really are? I think they are Blackwater Mercenaries starting shit like they do all over the world.

8. Kicking.

We need creative thinking right now. Senator Merkley just gave an interview in which he listed all the reasons nobody can do anything while trying to sound like he can do something. Maybe reporters can at least get some IDs.

9. BORTAC is not made up of regular on duty Border patrol agents.

It is a cohesive and deployable unit.
The groups I have seen are wearing the uniform, gear and using standard tactics taught by BORTAC and the USMS SOG.
No mystery, this is a standard duty they are trained and equipped for.

So, after they are IDed, what exactly is your plan?
