Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is traveling to the U.S.-Mexico border today as the military continues supporting immigration enforcement, Politico reported.
Hegseth will meet with Joint Task Force North at Fort Bliss, Texas.
“The Defense Department will support the defense of the territorial integrity of the United States of America’s southern border, including reservists, National Guardsmen and active duty [personnel] in compliance with the Constitution and the laws of our land, and the directives of the commander-in-chief,” Hegseth said last week.
He also told Fox News last week that “all options will be on the table” regarding possible military strikes in Mexico, Military.com reported.
