president Donald Trump said that the US military will control a strip of federal lands that extend three states along the southern border in an attempt to save illegal immigration.

The memo directed, “the military mission to close the southern borders of the United States and the invasions afflicted by it”, the defense secretaries, the interior, agriculture, and internal security “to provide use and the jurisdiction by the Ministry of Defense of these federal lands, including the Roosevelt Reserve and the exclusion of Indian federal lawyers, which are significantly necessary.
