Protecting our US borders from illegal movement of weapons, contraband, and people, while promoting lawful entry traffic is a big job.
According to Homeland Security officials, these are essential duties to homeland security, economic prosperity, and American national sovereignty. The USA shares 7,000 miles of land border with Canada and Mexico, as well as rivers, lakes, and coastal waters around the country. These borders are important economic gateways that account for trillions of dollars in trade and travel each year. They are also home to some of our nation’s largest — and safest — cities and communities.
A top priority for DHS is to keep terrorists and their weapons from entering the U.S. while welcoming all legitimate travelers and commerce. DHS Officers and Agents enforce all applicable U.S. laws, including against illegal immigration, narcotics smuggling, and illegal importation. DHS deploys highly trained law enforcement personnel who apprehend more than 1,000 individuals each day for suspected violations of U.S. laws at and between our ports of entry.
However, to be fair, SCOTUS along with Congress and state legislatures are also In disorder. As you can see and hear, the border disorder has been near and clear for dozens of years. Could it be that the American electorate is suffering from:

Meanwhile, about the border disorder, this was written by tenor giant Coleman Hawkins, Disorder at the Border features Dizzy Gillespie and is credited as the first bebop.
Hawkins was renowned for hiring young and exciting pioneers, with the likes of Gillespie, Max Roach, and Thelonious Monk passing through his band, one of the first swing-era greats to embrace the fresh new sounds of these new young lions.
The session also yielded a premiere of Gillespie’s ‘Woody ‘N You’ (one of his most enduring compositions) and Budd Johnson’s ‘Bu-Dee-Daht’.
Whilst Gillespie’s progressive and daring improvisations on ‘Disorder at the Border’ drew some criticism at the time, it remains an important recording from a time of transition in jazz and a great example of Gillespie’s developing style in the early 1940s.
