Border Control

Pentagon Sends Troops to California Border amid Fears of Border Rush
*The Grind*
The government is sending 160 soldiers to help border agents block the
migrant surge that is expected if the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals
strikes down the Migrant Protection Protocols. The MPP program has sent
roughly 60,000 migrants back into Mexico, prior to their eventual
asylum hearings in the United States. The return policy deters
migration by preventing migrants from getting the U.S. jobs they need
to repay their smuggling loans ? unless they eventually win their
backlogged courtroom claims. Some of the 30,000 migrants waiting in
Mexico rushed for the border February 28 when the court declared the
MPP program to be illegal. The court then quickly put a stay on its
decision to block the MPP until March 12, pending any Supreme Court
intervention.
*The Details*
The California-based court also decided to allow the MPP program to
operate in Texas. Officials at the Department of Justice have asked the
Supreme Court to extend the delay. Administration officials are sending
the troops to the border out of fear the migrants will try to
overwhelm the border defenses on March 12. Officials also said the
extra troops could help prevent the migration of people with diseases,
such as the Covid-19 disease from China. The U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) agency?s ?mission is to secure our nation?s borders,
and measures such as the Crisis Response Force employment allow CBP to
do just that,? a senior agency official told reporters March 6. He
continued.

Rough Road Ahead
*The Headline*
Sanders Struggles to Expand Supporter Base After Warren Exit
*The Grind*
It took Joe Biden?s moderate rivals just hours to unite behind his
presidential campaign after they left the race. Bernie Sanders hasn?t
been so fortunate. Elizabeth Warren, one of Sanders? closest
ideological allies, declined to endorse anyone after suspending her
campaign on Thursday. She didn?t rule out an endorsement of her New
England neighbor but said she wanted to ?take a deep breath and spend
a little time on that.? High-profile Warren supporters across the
country, particularly women, were also hesitant to race into Sanders?
camp. And on Capitol Hill, where Biden was racking up new endorsements
daily, the Vermont senator hasn?t earned a single new endorsement,
even among the most progressive elected officials, in two weeks.
*The Details*
The dangerous silence from Warren and progressive officials across the
country comes at the worst time for Sanders, who?s suddenly losing
momentum in a two-man race with the former vice president as another
set of high-stakes primary elections looms. Sanders is moving forward
with the same coalition that was beaten soundly earlier this week. And
if he cannot find a way to grow, and grow quickly, the Vermont
senator?s 2020 challenge will only become more dire. There is an
increasing sense of frustration within Sanders? campaign, where a
divide over strategy has emerged between opposing camps, according to
a person close to the campaign who spoke on condition of anonymity to
disclose private discussions.
