Arizona Declares State of Emergency Due to Border Crisis
Arizona Governor Doug Ducey declared a state of emergency at Arizona’s southwest border yesterday. In addition, the governor said he will deploy 250 National Guard troops to help local law enforcement.

Overwhelmed Border Patrol
In a recorded statement, Ducey explained the reason for declaring a state of emergency. “The U.S. Border Patrol is overwhelmed. Local law enforcement and mayors are calling out for help.
Citizens and our border communities are concerned for their safety and nonprofits, left to pick up the pieces of broken federal policies, are strained,” he said.
Arizona becomes the first state to declare an emergency related to this year’s border crisis. Border Patrol agents are noting a rapid increase in arrests of people crossing the border illegally this year.
Officials recorded more than 168,000 arrests at the border in March. In comparison, arrests made last December only totaled 71,000.
Ducey Allocates $25 Million For State of Emergency
The governor said Arizona will earmark $25 million to fund the National Guard mission. He has yet to give a timeline of their mission, or how long the deployment will last.
Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security didn’t issue a comment on the matter. Ducey hopes that the National Guard will help handle the hundreds of people who attempt to enter the US through Arizona’s borders daily. This number includes dozens of unaccompanied minors.
“The situation in our border communities is just as bad, if not worse, than the coverage we’ve been seeing,” Ducey said. The governor noted that the ongoing border crisis is largely absent from national headlines.
Despite the silence, he said that the flow of migrants continues to swell. “It’s become evidently clear that Arizona needs the National Guard, and the White House is aware of that. Yet, to this day, there has been no action from this administration, and it doesn’t look like they are going to act any time soon. If this administration isn’t going to do anything, then we will,” he added.
Ducey Wanted Emergency Action Since March
The Arizona governor pinned the crisis squarely on Biden and his administration’s illegal immigrant policies. “The numbers don’t lie, this drastic surge is a direct result of the bad policy, coming out of Washington, D.C., and yet we still haven’t received an adequate response from the Biden administration,” Ducey said.
Reports said that Ducey considered the National Guard deployment since March. He wanted to deploy troops since reading that the Biden administration faces a surge of unaccompanied minors showing up at the southern border.
This forced Customs and Border Patrol to handle thousands of more children than it’s capable of. “Deployment of the National Guard is critical to dealing with this crisis, and we are actively engaged in planning with the Guard,” a spokesman for the governor told the media last week.
National Guard Also Deployed in Texas
For Arizona, the National Guard won’t conduct law-enforcement operations. Instead, they will help with medical operations inside detention centers.
They will also spearhead the installation, maintenance, and monitoring of a state-operated border camera network. The state is not the first to deploy National Guard troops to the border. Earlier in March, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott sent troops to the border. However, Abbott did not declare a state of emergency at the time.

Biden and HARRIS are DESTROYING this country just to make sur the DEMs have more votes. I think that They BOTH Should be IMPEACHED.
Yes. I support Governor Doug Ducey’s decision to declare a state of emergency and call in the National Guard. I think the border crisis will continue until we get President Trump’s policies reinstated. Shame on President Biden’s decision to revoke President Trump’s border policies. These new policies to loosen the border is causing more terrorism, sickness, and economic problems in the United States. President Biden is a weak president.
Anyone with half a brain could see this coming. When Biden made all his comments about ending President Trump policies on the border they started heading here. These Socialist don’t care about this country or it’s Security or the American people’s safety..
The next step is to sue the Biden administration for everything they have to spend! Too bad it will be the American working public that will end up paying for it in higher taxes
This crisis will continue as long as the liberal left runs the country. The Biden administration and the leftist media are intent on destroying all the good that President Trump worked to put into place. It’s all well and good to allow immigrants into the country legally, but these illegal aliens need sent back to wherever they came from. The wall needs to be completed and topped by barbed wire! Then get the illegals out of our country! No way can we afford to take in all these illegals. It’s sad about all the kids but they need to be sent back to their homeland, not scattered throughout the United States. Can you say upsurge in COVID cases? That is not because the Americans aren’t doing their part. Spread the Mexican illegals all over the country. Will we even have a country as we knew it? Will there ever be a “normal” or should we all learn to speak Spanish? Must we let our beautiful country be destroyed by those who don’t care about it?!
Joe Biden and the SOCIALIST COMMUNIST DEMOCRAP PARTY are intent on DESTROYING America and INSTALLING SOCIALIST COMMUNIST DEMOCRAP RULE FOREVER BY FLOODING EVERY RED STATE WITH ILLEGAL ALIENS TO FOREVER CHANGE THE VOTING DEMOGRSPHICS. This federal government is a a ILLEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT,HAVING TAKEN POWER ILLEGALLY and UNTIL ITBIS REMOVED FROM POWER BY FORCE, ANERICA IS DOOMED!
I think Governor Ducey is doing the wright thing. Biden and Harris should both be IMPEACHED. the crisis will never go away until them two are gone-they are destroying this country-some thing has to be done
Gov Ducey is trying to do his job, But the White House (Democrats) are not helping. Making his job much more harder and tuff, Thank GOD he has support from local law enforcement. And I agree with Joey Volpe.
Machine guns and napalm work.
The DEMSD will NOT be happy until the BORDER is about where the Mason Dixon line is! DEMS want to ALLOW MORE IN then I have an IDEA! Pick up about 50 bus loads and dumb them on the WHITE OUSE LAWN and maybe 10 more bus loads in Delaware on BIDONS front lawn of HIS HOUSE!
Hire about 50 buses and as the ILLEGALS cross over pick them up and DUMP THEN about 100 miles SOUTH of the border where THEY came from. The GAS cost will NOT be as much as feeding them now! This country going to CRAPSVILLE!!
Biden and his staff are in over their head, they are looking out for their cronies rather than the people of Arizona that are been overrun by the Illegal. I CALL FOR AB IMPEACHMENT for dereliction of duty.
I like the comment: Machine Guns and napalm work. I am all for using FORCE to turn back any illegal! Man, woman, or child. Once these illegals have discovered they reached a dead end, they will retreat back to their own countries. Innocent victims, you say? Ah, go join the CCP and the DNC. We are at WAR.
ASS HOLE BIDEN SHOULD CLOSE AND LOCK DOWN THE BOADER. THEN THE STUPID PRICK OUGHT TO TAKE ALL THE MONEY IT IS COSTING TO HAVE ALL GOD DAMNED FREE LOADERS HERE AND GO GET BUSES
AND LOAD THEM ON THEM AND WHEN ALL THIS IS DONE,THEN OUR DUMB SHIT EATING “PRESIDENT”
SHOULD GO TO A CESS POOL AND STICK HIS DUMB HEAD IN IT FOR AN HOUR AND THEN JUST SOME OF OUR PROBLEMS WOULD BE OVER. IT IS GOING TO GET WORSE. RED NECKS BEFORE 2022. SO BRACE YOUR SELVEWS FOR THE CIVIL WAR THAT IS COMING AND RALLY’ROUND THE FLAG BOYS
THIE MY SECOND COMMENT TODAY I JUST READ JOHN ANDERSON’S IDEAQ. I HAVE ALWAYS SAID PUT A 50 CAL MACHINE GUN MARINE CREW A 1000 YARDS APART ALL ALONG THE TROUBLE SPOTS AND THAT WOULD STOP THESE FREE LOADING BASTARDS. SO I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS THE GUTS TO SAY SO.GOOD WE NEED MORE LIKE US.

This is not right and should stopped In it’s tracks. Biden is out of his mind! He has to be stopped at all the CRAP he has done trying to destroys our Country!
Blacks, hispainics, muslims and the rest of the 3rd world vermin will be the death of America. White Patriotic Americans must rise up now and take back our nation, we have the guns and the numbers but we have to act now! I do not want to end up like the American indians did and that is the future for us unless we fight back now!
Impeach The Entire “Biden Crime Family” Including The Squad
The sherrif must depitized the eligible people as multiplier to help securing the border.
The Biden people are like some body that walks there dog at night an lets it shet in every bodys elses yard but there own.And wants every body to clean up there mess.
Good for you gov Doocey! Go ahead and send troops to DC and arrest all the liberal perverts and child molestors you might see! 👏👏🤜🤛
I am still waiting for the day one of Biden’s family or one of his administrations family members are either murdered, raped, maimed or comes up missing by an illegal. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
The entire Biden idiots need to cough up lots of money to help out. Pelosi, Biden, Harris all created the problem and then walked away from it. They are all so dirty that it is no wonder the WH has to be circled with fencing. Their conscience bothers them but they are to selfish and lazy to help clean up the mess. Every abused child should be on their conscience. Scary, hundreds of year ago, we took the land away from the American Indians, We then took the Blacks away from their land. Now the idiots are coming after us. What goes around comes around, but the left gets richer and us hard working honest people pay the penalty for the left’s stupidity and selfishness. When will it goes around and hit these crooks.
And yes, it’s all about votes! They KNOW they can’t win fairly. I’m afraid something extremely bad is going to take place and Biden or one of his cohorts will wish he had never allowed this to ever happen!
REVOLUTION IS THE SOLUTION !
WARNING: Idiot in the Whitehouse. if you act like nothing is hàppening, it will alL go away! A Person has to wonder what dumb and dumber are up to. 4 more year’s of this shit, and it just is getting started. Whitehouse says you can no longer use the term illegal, but rather migrant or undocumented. Watch how the Media will cave to them, both left and right! Illegals is exactly what they are!!! God help this country and all who are in it LEGALLY!!!!!!!
Our borders should be secure and they are not. They should be secured and all persons entering this country by any means should be doing so according to our laws and the legal procedures that the US establishes. Not by the dictates of our senile president, our floozy vice president, and our witch of a house speaker.
I don’t want to see a civil war break out but everyday it feels Ike the devilrats are pushing Americans towards it n if so then we make sure to round up All these dirty politicians n charge them with treason n just like these whacked out liberals been saying, round up all liberals for re-education…. I’m a New Yorker from the Bronx unlike that dumber than a bag of rocks bitch aoc; I’m from the hood n never saw white nationalist but I’ve seemed plenty of us killing each other- so that bullshit narrative about a threat to our nation? They the devilrats are the greatest threat to our people n nation…. nyc is fucked up because of devilrats n their policies- do u know they passed a law making it illegal to call illegals aliens??? If that’s the case then it should be illegal to call them immigrants cause that their not- they are foreigners sneaking in period n to top it off we can be fined up to 250,000 for saying aliens n the illegals can sue us n get a percentage of that 250,000 fine- un fucking believable n they also starting to give them stimulus checks of 15.600$ per illegal…. we the people ain’t even get that much so I say fuck them all n it’s time for the people to take our nation back from these devilrats n yes fuck all them illegal aliens/ foreigners period- come in the right way n become a citizen if not then fuck you n stay out cause there’s a lot of legit immigrants waiting their turn to become American so yea fuck them
put a bunch of these illegals on a bus (especially the gangsters) and let them off at bidens residence, and his neighborhood!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Biden is a puppet. The man is not in charge, his administration is being manipulated by the far left. We need to fight every crazy idea that comes from these jerks.
EVERY COMMENT ON THIS PAGE IS “RIGHT ON TARGET”. WITH SUCH A CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, HOW CAN WE GET RID OF HIM? IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDINGS SHOULD HAVE STARTED BY NOW. IS ASSASSINATION THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE? HARSH WORDS, I KNOW, BUT WE NEED A QUICK FIX. DOOMSDAY IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER. I CAN SHOOT A RIFLE. JUST SAVE ME A SPOT IN THE LINE-UP ALONG THE BORDER. CAN USE THE PRACTICE.
I agree that we need to get rid of Biden and Harris, the only thing if the were impeached and kicked out of office it would make Pelosi President. They all need to be kicked out of the Country and take all of their crooked money.
i am afraid we are heading for another Civil War if the demrats keep up their underhanded governing!!! IMPEACH Biden and all his crew! There’s not an honest one in the bunch!!Will all the Republicans who are not afraid of confrontation , please step forward and save are beloved country, before the demorats screw it up so badly that we will be beyond saving. GOD BLESS AMERICA, AND PLEASE SAVE OUR COUNTRY!!!!

Of course they should declare a state of emergency. The country is in a state of emergency. We have illegals being let in, I guess for votes, but the left has election cheating all under wraps?! We have a a president and vp that were cheated into the white house, the government violating the constitution. Threatening gun confiscation, all while Chinese troops are in Canada & Mexico, and a fake pandemic so they can force everyone to be injected by the unapproved, still in clinical trials, untested vaccine. I guess a lot of people don’t know the failures of the corona virus vaccine attempts since 2000. Yea, I’d say the whole flipping country is in a state of emergency.
We need legal immigrants very much. Anyone who wants to come here needs to do it the right way. People who come illegally should not be able to get any help at all, but be turned back at the border, I empathize with Governor Ducey. He is right in trying to stem the flow and protect his state. It could not have been an easy decision. He needs the full support of his state’s citizens and the country. Everything must be done legally. It would also behoove all of us to pray for him and his state.
I say that Biden say Biden should be brought up on charges of conspiracy to commit murder,rape,and treason! This Dereliction of duty to protect the borders and security of America’s, purposefully undermines the earned freedoms that so many gave their lives for! When the next girl is raped during this invasion “AKA” migration, and the first citizen who protects his property and family with the use of deadly force, should be the 2nd shot heard around the world! Thats when the cuffs go on and the doors slam shut on that Benedict Arnold posing in the White House! The second American revolution is COMING! I’ll run against these DDemoRATS for president! First thing I would do is send a few marine divisions to the border and lock it down and then make the border the official training grounds for combat training for our troops! I’m all for hands on training dont you know. I spent 13 years in the USAF and swore to my country that I would protect this country from foreign and DOMESTIC terrorism and that is what this is!
Brought on by this puppet of the United States!!! There are 40 million veterans in the US and many more patriotic soon to be militia soldiers stock piling weapons and ammo whilst with burning eyes with the boiling energy of sweet freedom behind them and seething teeth ready to rip at freedoms enemies and keep the land free waiting for the liberty bell to ring once more! You bastards remember it was the fighters who earned this freedom so that you could sit in that fancy chair in that fancy house and were the ones who will throw your. communist ass over the fence when we get back to “WE” the people and not the “YOU” the people, and that goes for all of you who want something for nothing! The eagle is soaring high above right now watching and he will scream again! God Bless the U.S. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 JAG
This border issue is outrageous. States like AZ having to call in extra help to control the horrible decisions from Biden is totally not acceptable. Biden and others should act and act fast to get this crap show fixed that they have made much worse with the stroke of his pen. This action from Biden and his followers is very ANTI-AMERICAN!! When children die crossing the border, or get kidnapped and trafficked to bad people, then the blood is on Biden’s hands. This is not a rocket science. Come on and do the right thing JOE!!
This is a slap in the face to every immigrant that followed the rules to gain citizenship. What a fucked up country this has become.
John: Amen Brother!
Yes, a very good decision by Governor Ducey. Biden-Harris policies have left the border wide open for criminals of every type to come in. This puts all law abiding citizens and especially those who live close to the border, in unacceptable physical danger. The Democrats who support this are also the same politicians who want to ban and confiscate law abiding citizens firearms. They believe letting all the criminals in, while taking away the citizens means of self defense and defunding the police. How much more unconstitutional does it get, than this?
North Carolina will be praying for Arizona. Governor Ducey is doing the right thing. We need to impeach Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer & Schiff. Get rid of the Squad. Arrest Obama for sticking his nose in where he doesn’t belong. That’s a big reason everything is so messed up. We need God to help us so please pray. Arizona you have a great Governor. Wished we could say the same thing about ours…
Every american person should go carry all of those in the white house out! Get rid of all of them without lifetime benifits! They don’t deserve it.
The Democrat’s seem to want a Communist nation under only them. Someone got paid really well for this was it Hunter ? Is so you can bet you will find it as tne CCP pays on results not mouth .
I grew up in the 50’s but saw a deterioration by the 60’s. JFK assassinated by our own people, and his brother Robert and his son, all murdered by traitors. Colleges all over became breathing grounds for socialism and dumbing down. Slowly but incessantly those who opposed America installed their stooges in every classroom, boardroom, and elected office, right up to presidency with Bush (who did 9/11, Katrina, JFK Jr), Obama (who divided America into two colors and hates both if they are not muslim, and attacked our 2nd Amendment on a daily basis, even took Hoax mass shooting victims around the country as a carnival), and now this totally blatantly traitorous whacko Biden who stopped building the border wall to allow foreigners to come in and vote for him or another traitor.
You want to argue right and wrong? I don’t want to hear one more mfing word. If we have to fight and I know damn well we do and must, then let’s have a real Revolution, the main goal being to take down the crime syndicate running the government, because they are the biggest criminal traitors in this country. A government that refuses to protect its borders is not a government but a treasonous dictatorship. A government who lies at every turn to the people they were elected to SERVE, who strangles our freedoms and creates mass shooting hoaxes and events to support their most important agenda: to destroy our 2nd Amendment and confiscate guns for full control of citizens. Only then would they be able to demand everyone take Vaccinations every year until we are slowly annihilated.
We have the capacity to keep anyone from entering America illegally. High metal walls with barbed wire at the top sounds right, but adding micro-chips in every section that can relay messages of trespass should do it. As it stands right now, I’m with AZ Gov. Ducey calling it Emergency. Use rubber bullets if you must, but illegals must be stopped and sent back. As it stands, if I had the money, I would leave America because it is too damn stressful, people are cranky and thickheads, unsocial and bitter and overworked and underpaid as the government prints and spends money like it was water, which we also don’t have any longer thanks to govt selling aquifers to big corporations. Our government is a filthy whore selling huge tracts of land to the Chinese and allowing them their own laws over ours, but they will attack with a vengeance American families like the Bundys whose land govt decided to take when Bundy didn’t want BLM as caretaker. As I write there are dozens of muslim training grounds in America prepping for a takeover of our once beloved country. Most eggregious is American government using big corporations, media, BigPharma, and now terrorist organizations like Antifa and BLM as their first offensive line against citizens.
Call me for a Revolution against tyranny so I can join with patriots.
we need to impeach every single elected official in Washington that supported Biden and his anti American policies. Biden, Harris and pelosi should be tried for treason and executed!!!
God help us all.
Arizona cannot expect any help from the Federal Government in saving their state from being overrun by illegals, drugs and criminals….
Save yourselves, as the dementia wracked president does not have the mental capacity to send help and the rest of the democrats don’t want you to receive help…
Elections have consequences for all of us…..
Dumb nazi racists smdh
I’m with Scott…God help us…..A civil war which awaits the U.S., if the left continues to launch assaults on all that Americans hold dear….
Kerry Mercer please don’t trow all Hispanics in the same boat. We are all different. I for one, and many members of my family have served this, “our” country, proudly and with honor. Some have been, and are war veterans. We all believe in everything that makes “our” country great, and have worked very hard and contributed in many ways to our country here. Apart from that, I have been here for over 40 years, more than half my adult life. I got my post high school education here, and pulled myself by the bootstraps, making it with hard work, and always paid my taxes. I don’t believe in open borders at all, I always stand for our flag, the National Anthem. I Iove the country, I am an Independent voter, with center to conservative beliefs, and I am Puerto Rican, as most of my family members. Quite a few were born in the States too. Many others are like us. Now, about the Moslems I don’t know, I have my doubts too. And I know quite a few patriotic, decent, and hard working Blacks. So, No, can’t say we are all the same as I don’t say all police is corrupt, because most are not., We have to analyze everything carefully.
Aida you are right. The problem for me is the Democrates. I will stand with you and your family as Americans and fight like he’ll. God bless you and your family.
biden and all these democrats will have us in war sooner than you think. this can not go on.we wont last his four years.obama clinton biden harris pelosi are a disgusting sick cheating self serving pocket filling democrats that only know how to steal from americans. you ass holes take the money,your time,your means of providing for yourself and get all those kids home to their mothers and fathers.you all are a repulsive stomach-turning bunch. you are killing our country off ever hour since the cheating election.you get your dirty asses down to the borders and help clean up the mess you made.YES the mess you made.and then tell the floyd family to pay back all the stores , businesses,people that criminal floyd hurt,cheated, stole and tried to kill. yep he is a role model to look up to.
what the hell are you teaching. its sick what you are doing.this is all so wrong on every level.if this isnt true , prove it and get to work fixing the swamp you are all in and trying to make us all sink with you.
Minefields, clearly marked “en Espanol ” about YOU ARE NOW ENTERING A MINEFIELD.
cover it with 7.62 caliber machine guns and dare anything or anyone to come across.
I am an American of Latino ? Spanish descent, I am sick of being called a racist, right now I dont care what these roaches call me. If we do not take a stand this country is going to hell, we got habitual criminals being made into heroes, good people who given their life to their communities are now going to jail for years, criminals family cashing in millions..it is insane!!!!!
By the way, Derek Chauvin was RAILROADED in order to try to calm the roaches!!!! That is NOT Justice!!!!
I agree with you Robert. If we would stop watching sports and praising the movie stars. We would start seeing a difference. The tv is training the young people to hate authority.
