In an apparent attempt to cover up the border crisis, the Biden administration has shut down Fox News’s ability to fly their drone over the U.S.-Mexico border to report on the border crisis, which swelled in August and again in the last 24-hours.
On Thursday’s Special Report, national correspondent Bill Melugin showed the over 9,000-person crowd of illegals under the international bridge. But on Tucker Carlson Tonight, two hours later, he was forced to report that the FAA had issued a temporary flight restriction or TFR over the entire area.

Our leftist government don’t want us American citizens to see the truth any more. We should just only listen to the government’s lies, obfuscation and propaganda. We are all so ignorant we only believe our own lying eyes.

The government is like a little kid trying to hide a mess they made by putting it out of site. If you can't see it, it's not there. Either way, the mess is still there and not going away and everyone knows it us there and getting worse.

As stated above, ignore the order. Dare the little Hitlers to knock down the drone. BTW, Bill Melugin is a good reporter.

Ignore the order. There will be a price to be paid (e.g., WH press credentials revoked), but let the chips fall where they may.

Now do a report that follows the buses that distribute these illegals across the country and compare the before/after COVID statistics say the drop off locations. Should be very interesting.

As I watched the footage last night, I notice there were porta-potties set up and that made me question who is feeding these people? That is not small feat. It would require a massive effort. Biden’s administration has encouraged this invasion and created a true humanitarian crisis. Of course, they do not want the world to see the mess they have made.
Abbott should have acted months ago and put the national guard at the border. Why wait when he knew the consequences of doing nothing. Governors are going to have step up their game and be proactive and defy this rogue government. They have an oath to uphold too. Until they get serious about the national security of their state, expect more chaos and mayhem because that is all a part of the Democrat’s plan. They want to overwhelm the system and demoralize the people. You can see it is working. People are frustrated and upset. Red state governors should band together and refuse to allow any migrant into their state. Do not allow them to unload these illegals. If they do, put them on another bus and send them to Washington DC and let Biden deal with what he has wrought. We have to get serious about saving this country. Going along to get along is insane at this point. Determined resistance must be the strategy going forward. It is what you do when faced with a lawless rogue government.

Our federal agencies are running the country like a bunch of gangs on street corners.
I think we need a Noah's flood type of do-over.
Many of them need to be completely dismantled.
Some need to be torn down to bare bones and have their power greatly restricted.
All leadership needs to be removed at the FBI, CIA, FAA, CDC, IRS, ...

To quote the GREAT Rinktum today; "... put them on another bus and send them to Washington DC and let Biden deal with what he has wrought."
This needs to be done even if is costly to the States in question!!
Another GREAT post.
And to No.13; Re; "All leadership needs to be removed at the FBI, CIA, FAA, CDC, IRS, ..." along with all the permanent hangers-on.
Someone said last night that ALL of these people in DC should be made mandatory that they go home on weekends and Holidays. I too agree with this.
The stupid control in DC, in my opinion, is that the wives want to keep going to the weekend parties, and they must have had it pointed out to them that if their husbands didn't vote the right way they would NOT be being invited to these wonderful balony filled parties.

FTA: “The Border Patrol requested the temporary flight restriction due to drones interfering with law enforcement flights on the border." What law enforcement flights? They aren't "enforcing" anything.

This East Texas Piney Woods resident is calling Gov Abbott's office this morning to express my displeasure at the lack of state action to move them back across the border, by any means necessary. Feds be damned.

The border states need to setup an easy donation system, offer to deputize volunteers and build the WALL.
Fear is the only thing stopping them. time to man up, we are losing the country

If Fox had a lick of sense, they would ignore the FAA's unenforceable order. It is clearly intended to his Biden's border mess from the public, and there can be no national security issue, as they claim, if there is a highway overpass with thousands of vehicles passing overhead every hour.
Let the FAA try to enforce this joke. It will drive up the news ratings. Let the FAA call on Gen Milley to shoot down the Fox drone for even bigger ratings

IMHO, it is starting to seem like ALL our states' governors are becoming mere 'spokesmodels', as the Obidenbama regime proceeds to cancel the 10th Ammendment.

Did you know that border patrol are not allowed to check what these illegals are brining into the USA in their bags. No one is being checked for covid. Most of these illegals are from Haiti The BP is expecting the numbers to be 20,000 by Sunday.

This invasion may evolve into an unprecedented threat to our country. Who can predict the size of migrant caravans when the weather cools off? Waves of tens/hundreds of thousands? Anything can happen.

Aside from biden the cheater's obvious attempt to institute the Cloward Piven strategy at the border, the real objective is to permanently change the voting demographics in this country. If this continues, the dims will never lose another election here at any level. A world without borders.

After. 9/11 FAA worried about little airplanes falling on large groups of people and strategic installations. So they published where the strategic installations were not to fly over. And named examples of groups not to fly over: football games, and the like.
So FAA appears to be enforcing post 9/11 regulations. The Federal Aviation Regulations are actually law not ordinances.
So the drone thing may not be political just a bureaucrat in Oak City waking up.

How very "Soviet" of Joe Biden's handlers. Pravda, Izvestia and Tass (not to mention Himmler and Goering ) would have nothing on the Biden administration's desire to thwart truthful journalism.

I wonder who is moving them from Haiti to Mexico en masse.
Looks like around 12,000 of them already here, a few hundred crossing right now, every hour at a shallow spot in the river about a mile from the Acuna Bridge, and another at least 50,000 on the way up from further south in Mexico,
And how? Are they flying them or sending them on ships?
They sure as heck aren’t swimming.
