Its been said repeatedly but here is one more time..
From your Vox link ,
Customs and Border Protection chief Kevin McAleenan said. Troops mostly will be stationed in bases there for training and deploy to the border when needed.
So while the troops at the border will be armed, they will only legally be able to assist US border officials by doing things like helping transport border agents and providing emergency medical care to those who need it. The armed forces can also work to reinforce infrastructure around the border, like putting additional razor wire on border fences.
So the military will not be enforcing the law, but instead be working in support of those enforcing the law.
ETA: Its an unclassified power point slide...
Yeah, that’s all they can legally do. That’s the point, it’s a political stunt because their presence is in no way required.
Yet the border patrol requested the extra bodies, so they must think having the troops there to help rebuild the infrastructure is a good thing.

I’m really curious at what point people in the nationalist party will see they’ve been had? On second thought, I doubt they will. They don’t care about being lied to as long as it’s Trump lying to them. They welcome it and love it.
These are the same people who’d light their house on fire if they thought the smoke might choke a liberal.
So it's open borders (globalists) or nationalist party.
No one on the left wants completely open borders where anyone can walk through, that isn’t a real thing.

Or was Trump wrong?
Calls for open borders wind up closing doors for Democrats
Over the past two months, Democratic National Committee deputy chairman and congressman Keith Ellison has passionately and persistently advocated his position that national borders, specifically the southern border, create “an injustice.” In a recent interview, Ellison suggested that because corporations “can go back and forth across the border seeking out the lowest wages,” regular people should be able to “go back and forth across the border seeking out the highest wages.” Not only is this statement in itself completely detached from reality, but it seems to suggest that if we cannot have wide open borders, then we must not have free trade at all. These remarks come just weeks after Ellison wore a shirt that read “yo no creo en fronteras,” which in English translates into “I do not believe in borders.”

Is that so? If it is I assume you can produce a link showing this fact that the border control asked for 5000 troops to handle this caravan.

Prove it. Show me who on the left has completely open borders as a platform. If people are campaigning on removing the border and allowing unfettered access to anyone it shouldn’t be that hard to prove.
Or is that just more hyperbole from King Hyperbole himself?

Letting people across to work and then go home to Mexico isn’t abolishing the southern border.
Again, more hyperbole.
“I do not believe in borders.”

Oops.
See above.
In fact, a Harvard Harris poll last month states that a striking 36 percent of Democrats support “basically open borders.”

People tend to forget why those laws exist.
It's in large part to protect the immigrants themselves.
Many factors come into play when taking people in. This is so that we can make sure they have a chance at success when they get here.
Those that come in illegally typically get below minimum wage, and get exploited in ways they cannot report in fear of getting deported. This can include poor working conditions, harassment, no overtime, over worked ect...
Illegal immigrants saturating working markets means less opportunity, lower rate of acceptance of those trying to come legally.

I do not understand why they do not want to protect these people?
Seems to me following the law has worked for MANY that are here.
