Well, as of Oh title 42 thirty at least, Gov. Abbott and his Operation Lone Star has proven that barriers (walls, fences, etc.) are effective, in spite of Biden's claims to the contrary.

Can walls/fences be defeated? Of course they can, but they are obviously another tool to, at the very least, be a force multiplier and help protect our (overwhelmed) BP, LEO's & NG personnel from injury/harm.

This Fox News screen shot from 11 May, hours prior to Title 42 expiration, says it all. Note the illegal dressed in black with white back pack seems to be asking Texas National Guard troops, "que paso?", or....What happened? I can almost hear the reply, Governor Abbott and Operation Lone Star!


God bless Governor Abbott, the TXNG & DPS for doing the badly neglected job of the current federal administration.

Mayorkas Says DHS ‘Ready to Meet’ Influx of Illegal Immigrants as Title 42 Expires

By Samantha Flom and Emel Akan
May 11, 2023Updated: May 11, 2023

Hours before Title 42 was set to expire on May 11, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said that stemming the flow of illegal immigrants at the U.S.–Mexico border would be a difficult but manageable challenge for the Biden administration.

“This is a challenge, and we are going to meet this challenge,” Mayorkas told reporters at a White House press briefing. “We’re going to meet it within a broken immigration system while adhering to our values.”


Invoked in March 2020 to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, Title 42 is an emergency health authority that has allowed for the swift removal of illegal immigrants from countries with a high incidence of COVID-19.

For more than a year, the Biden administration has sought to end the policy but has been held up by legal challenges from Republicans who said the policy was necessary to help curb the rising numbers of illegal immigrants flooding across the southern border.

But with the policy set to expire on May 11 at 11:59 p.m. Washington time, Mayorkas stressed that the administration still had legal means for removing illegal immigrants through Title 8 immigration law.

“The transition to Title 8 processing will be swift and immediate,” the secretary said. “We have surged 24,000 Border Patrol agents and officers, thousands of troops, contractors, and over 1,000 asylum officers and judges to see this through.

“We are clear-eyed about the challenges we are likely to face in the days and weeks ahead, and we are ready to meet them.”
Revamped Policy

Mayorkas’s remarks follow the administration’s May 10 announcement that it will roll out a new immigration policy in preparation for the tens of thousands of migrants who continue to gather along the Mexican side of the southern border, waiting for Title 42 to expire.

The finalized rule (pdf) , which essentially reinstates a Trump-era travel policy, stipulates that illegal immigrants will be disqualified from applying for asylum in the United States if they didn’t first seek protection in countries that they traveled through on their way to the United States, with limited exceptions.

The regulation is meant to decrease human smuggling activities at the southern border by encouraging asylum-seekers to use “lawful, safe, and orderly” pathways, such as seeking refuge in a country that they’ve passed through.

Mayorkas said that smugglers have been spreading the word that the border will be open after Title 42 expires.

“I want to be very clear: our borders are not open,” he said. “People who cross our border unlawfully and without a legal basis to remain will be promptly processed and removed.”

Issuing a warning to those considering making the trek to the border, he stressed: “Smugglers care only about profits, not people. Do not risk your life and life savings only to be removed from the United States if and when you arrive here.”
Placing Blame

To incentivize migrants to choose a legal pathway into the United States, the administration will rely on the new policy and strict enforcement of Title 8, under which illegal immigrants will be barred from reentry into the U.S. for five years and can face criminal prosecution.

But for many, the administration’s efforts are too little, too late.

“[President Joe] Biden sent 1,500 troops to the border to do paperwork,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott wrote on Twitter on May 10. “Texas deployed trained soldiers and troopers to take real action and respond to the crisis.”

Abbott has been a vocal critic of the administration’s approach to the border, often sending busloads of illegal immigrants who have crossed into his state to Washington, D.C., and other Democrat-controlled areas in protest.

Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump released a video message on May 11 criticizing his successor’s handling of the border, saying that the United States had become a “third-world nation” under the current administration.

“At this very moment, illegal aliens are lined up by the tens of thousands, ready to break into our country knowing that, even if they are caught, Joe Biden will order them immediately released into American communities,” Trump said. “And many of these people are very dangerous.”

Since Biden took office, more than 5 million illegal immigrants have crossed the border into the United States.

Mayorkas, however, asserted that the blame for the ongoing border crisis should be placed at the feet of Congress, not the Biden administration.

“Our current situation is the outcome of Congress leaving a broken, outdated immigration system in place for over two decades, despite unanimous agreement that we desperately need legislative reform,” he said. “It is also the result of Congress’s decision not to provide us with the resources we need and that we requested.”

When pressed on how he could say that the border was not open when more than a half-million illegal immigrants escaped capture in the fiscal year 2022, Mayorkas said: “We removed, returned, and expelled 1.4 million people last year. Ask those 1.4 million people if they think the border is open.”

Governor Greg Abbott has been front and center with Operation Lone Star since March of 2021. [2]
Quote:
OPERATION LONE STAR: NEWS FROM THE OFFICE OF GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT

Since March 2021 when Operation Lone Star began, DPS has made more than 27,000 criminal arrests. There have also been more than 24,000 felony charges reported.

DPS has made more than 365,000 illegal immigrant apprehensions since OLS began.

DPS has seized more 380 million potentially lethal doses of fentanyl statewide.


In order to cope with the expiration of title 42, Gov. Abbott stepped up his efforts, sending "elite unit of TXANG to repel illegals in conjunction with Texas DPS troopers. [3]

Following is an Epoch Times interview with Todd Bensman w/The Center for Immigration Studies, and his analysis of the effects of Gov. Abbott's task force @ Brownsville.

Mr. Bensman spent 2.5 years traveling with and interviewing migrant groups, analyzing their motivations, tribulations, and methods.

Unfortunately, unable to share the interview the day after title 42 expired, but high points of the video paraphrased from memory:
Quote:

1) Right up until Title 42 expired, he observed very heavy traffic of mostly Venezuelan immigrants allowed to pass into US for processing. [Foot note: Daily encounters @ Brownsville averaged 1200-1500/day according to[1] below]

(2) On the day after Title 42 expired, Mr Bensman observed no border patrol officers @ Brownsville crossing. Present were Texas ARMY National Guard troops & DPS troopers sent by Gov. Abbott to prevent passage of any illegals.

(3) Mayorkas held a press conference in which he condemned Gov. Abbott's

4) The day after Title 42 expired, The encampment of migrants gathered on the Matamoros river bank planning to storm the border had disappeared with no migrants in sight. Apparently all have moved farther up the Rio Grande. Speculation is that, being blocked @ Brownsville and El Paso by Gov. Abbott's task force, migrants will shift to the Del Rio/Eagle Pass sector for further attempts to cross.

5) 15,000 Haitians are reportedly encamped @ Reynosa (about 50 miles west of Brownsville) awaiting expiration of Title 42. Haitians have been notoriously violent in their journey north.

6) Mr. Bensman observes that migrants respond to the Whitehouse policy announcements by attempting to circumvent these policies and gain entry by any means. He commented that at any time, he could fill a shopping bag with identification papers from all over the world which have been discarded on the Mexican side of the border by migrants attempting to enter the US illegally.

7) Mr. Bensman observed the use of "scouts" sent ahead who report details of their success (or failure) to enter back to the migrant encampments so they can replicate their successful MO's.

8) Asked what works in restricting the flow of illegals, Mr. Benson said that the "wait in Mexico" policy worked and speculated that if Mexico would deprt illegals at their southern border that illegal entry would be stopped within 24 hours..

He observed that Gov. Abbott's elite task force has stopped entry where applied. Asked if declaration of an invasion by the Governor would be helpful, he opined that the only advantage would be giving the state authority to deport those who gained entry illegally.

Currently, those caught illegally by state authorities must be turned over to DHS or CBP to deport, street release, or process at federal discretion.

Mayorkas says border crossings dropped by 50% after Covid restrictions lifted (after title 42 expired).

Click State of the Union below for video:
Quote:
“Over the past two days, the United States Border Patrol has experienced a 50% drop in the number of encounters versus what we were experiencing earlier in the week before Title 42 ended at midnight on Thursday,” Mayorkas said on CNN's " State of the Union".


Mayorkas claims this is result of their planning according to original article:
Quote:
Mayorkas credited the low numbers in the past two days to the Biden administration’s clear message to migrants that circumventing the lawful pathways for asylum come with grave consequences.


I offer an entirely different possibility.

As outlined two posts back ^^^^, Mr Todd Bensman credits the blocking of all illegal crossings @ Brownsville and the emptying out of the huge migrant camp in Matamoros overnight to Gov. Abbott's TX ANG & DPS joint taskforce. Entry was reportedly blocked in El Paso as well and observers noted that migrants seemed to be moving toward popular crossings at Eagle Pass & Del Rio, hoping to cross unobstructed there. This effectively reduced illegal crossings substantially along the entire border shared by Texas & Mexico.

Since the US/Mexico border is 1933 miles, the Texas/Mexico border is 1240 miles or 64% of the entire US/Mexico border. Could this sudden reduction in illegal crossings along 64% of the border be responsible for that 50% reduction in illegal crossings? Seems likely to me, time will tell, as those illegals who are relocating will soon get organized somewhere and attempt to cross.

This suggests that fences/walls combined with 24/7 observation (satellite, drones, electronic) combined w/relatively small rapid response teams strategically placed might be a relatively inexpensive solution to a government serious about border control.

According to Fox News, migrants from 170 countries have crossed our borders seeking asylum. Court dates currently being assigned to those admitted are running 4-7 years out! One migrant in Brownsville was told to appear in 2027 last week. Those so admitted are released with no means of tracking their whereabouts, making one wonder what the percentage is that simply fade away.

Last week an Afghan on the Terrorist Watch List was apprehended after crossing the border into California. Rep. Mike Waltz (FL) an ex-Green Beret, who serves on the House Armed Services Committee stated that thousands of Taliban fighters were released from Bagram Air Base when we pulled out. Where have they all gone!?

When asked by the press today how is the border going?, Biden said, "Much better than you all expected." He was then asked if he had plans to go to the border, to which he replied, "Not in the near term, no. It would just be disruptive, nothing else."

Fox News screen shots this date:


US Rep. Tony Gonzales, from El Paso district revealed that El Paso CBP is currently holding more than 6,000 illegal aliens, one facility with a capacity of 1000 is holding 3000, another w/capacity of 90 currently holding 400. More than 4200 illegals were released in El Paso last week.



Homeland Security Chief Warns Border Could Still See Surge After Title 42 End

By Jack Phillips
May 14, 2023Updated: May 15, 2023

U.S. Border Patrol agents have seen a 50 percent drop in the number of border crossers since the pandemic-era immigration policy known as Title 42 expired at midnight on May 11, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said in an interview.

“Over the past two days, the United States Border Patrol has experienced a 50 percent drop in the number of encounters versus what we were experiencing earlier in the week before Title 42 ended at midnight on Thursday,” Mayorkas told CNN’s “State of the Union” program on May 14. “It is still early. We are in day three. But we have been planning for this transition for months and months.”

However, amid such claims from Mayorkas and other Biden administration officials, Republicans described what’s unfolding at the border as catastrophic. On May 11, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Fox News that Mayorkas “is lying” about the “chaos and catastrophic results at the border.”

There have been widespread bipartisan concerns that ending Title 42, which has been in effect for the past three years, would spur a significant increase in illegal immigration amid reports that large groups of people are heading from Mexico and Central America to the U.S. border. Multiple Texas counties along the border have also declared emergencies over the anticipated spike in illegal immigration.

Mayorkas said U.S. Border Patrol agents had about 6,300 encounters with border-crossers on May 12 and another 4,200 on May 13. That’s compared with more than 10,000 per day shortly before Title 42’s expiration.

Mayorkas still warned that a surge across the border is still possible.

“It is too early,” he cautioned on May 14.

“We have not only a security imperative but a humanitarian responsibility to cut those smugglers out. We have an obligation to deliver consequences at our border, to not only manage our border but to cut the smugglers out.”

Republicans have criticized Mayorkas and President Joe Biden for the increase in illegal immigration during the current administration. House Republicans recently approved what Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) termed “the strongest border security bill this country has ever seen,” while noting that Republicans “are seeing a very different record from President Biden.”

Even as the legislation neared its final form on May 10, it had to be amended to appease concerns from the House Freedom Caucus and other lawmakers. The 213-page bill represents a compromise in the Republican conference between centrist lawmakers, who wanted to focus on beefing up border enforcement, and conservatives, who want to see drastic changes to U.S. asylum and immigration law.

The package would return to many of the same policies pursued by former President Donald Trump, such as building walls along the border. It would also restrict asylum by requiring illegal aliens to cross legally, pay a $50 fee, and meet more stringent requirements to show in initial interviews that they have a credible fear of persecution in their home country. Title 42, which expired on May 11, was initially implemented during the Trump administration despite numerous legal challenges.

The bill would also scrap a program that allowed U.S. officials to accept or quickly turn away some people from Venezuela, Haiti, and Nicaragua. The program is a cornerstone of Biden’s immigration efforts, allowing migrants from those countries to apply to come to the United States for two years legally and work.

“The bill that we’re getting, I think, is a good starting point,” Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) said. “It, by itself, would not get 60 votes to get out of here.”

He means that the bill likely won’t pass the Democrat-controlled Senate. Biden has warned that he’ll veto the measure if it comes to his desk.

Also, Tillis joined with Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-Ariz.), who accepts committee assignments from Democrats, to push a proposal that would resurrect the government’s power to quickly expel illegal immigrants without processing their asylum claims for another two years.

“It’s clear that the Biden administration, while it had two years to prepare for the end of Title 42, failed to do so,” Sinema told reporters last week. “And in the last several weeks, I’ve had the unfortunate job of communicating on a daily basis, sometimes even hourly basis, with the sheriffs, the Border Patrol agents, mayors, and even the governor of Arizona to figure out how we can prepare to deal with this crisis.”

Mayorkas derided the Republican-backed bill on May 14 and, without providing evidence, said it would “dismantle” the U.S. immigration system.

“We are in need of desperately as a country is immigration reform, to fix the system, not to dismantle it, which is what this proposal really provides,” Mayorkas said.

Reuters and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Record Number of Suspected Terrorists Crossed the U.S.-Mexico Border | Opinion

Quote:
ust a few years ago, major U.S. media outlets called President Donald Trump a liar when he proclaimed that Islamic terrorist suspects were illegally crossing the southern border among far more numerous Spanish-speaking immigrants. "Fact-check" columnists swore such terrorist crossings never happened.

But since April 2022, when U.S. Customs and Border Protection began publishing the monthly number of border crossers who were on the FBI's terrorism watch list, it has become impossible to ignore the record-breaking numbers of suspected terrorist crossings.

Final fiscal year 2022 numbers show Border Patrol apprehended a whopping 98 watch-listed terrorists at the southern border, six times the record 15 caught there in 2021 (three were caught in 2020 and none in 2019). That's also five times the number it took to carry out the 9/11 attacks that took America to war in overseas theaters for 20 years.

Thanks are in order to the governors of FL an UT for dispatching state National Guard troops to support operation Lone Star.

Texas operation Lone Star, Gov. Abbott's current initiative, doing Biden's job, which he refuses to do. So far it has cost the state of Texas some 2 Billion dollars, resulting in 376,000 illegal aliens apprehended, 28,000 criminal arrests and 416,000,000 lethal doses of Fentanyl confiscated. Texas has bussed 19,000 illegals to NYC, Chicago, DC and recently to CO.

The governor's recent deployment of TXANG and DPS to Brownsville has essentially sealed that illegal point of entry using miles of razor concertina wire backed up by troopers. Crossings dropped from thousands/day to less than 50 overnight.

While crossings have decreased at all points w/title 8 replacing title 42, numbers were much higher in areas not benefiting from personnel & fencing and authorities are apprehensive while waiting for the other shoe to drop, as there are still "tens of thousands gathered on the south bank of the Rio Grande River waiting to cross". Overnight @ Del Rio, Tx. DPS reported a group of approximately 100 gathered on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande in preparation to enter but were discouraged by orders not to do so.

DPS Lt. Olivares reported that 4-5000 illegals are currently being held at the border, not counting those released by federal authorities with court dates.

To those who say the border cannot be controlled, the Bracero program was very successful in providing needed farm labor and helping to control illegal entry for years. Operation Wetback (obviously named prior to the politically correct era), was equally efficient, both described below:

Quote:
Operation Wetback

During World War II, the Mexican and American governments developed an agreement known as the Bracero program, which allowed Mexican laborers to work in the United States under short-term contracts in exchange for stricter border security and the return of illegal Mexican immigrants to Mexico.[12] Instead of providing military support to the U.S. and its military allies, Mexico would provide laborers to the U.S. with the understanding that border security and illegal labor restrictions would be tightened by the United States.[13

Latest headlines from the "Border".

Border encounters down to 4000/day (compared to 10,000/day before title 42 expiration) but Guatemala currently reports 60-80,000 Venezuelans passing through their country en route to US border.

According to CA congressman Darrell Issa:

Ca considering paying illegal migrants $300/month for 20 months.

Could cost the state $356,000,000. CA currently has a $20,000,000,000 deficit. Univ. of CA considering hiring illegal aliens.

Migrants are funneled towards the U.S. southern border via a sophisticated logistics operation paid for by American taxpayers and the United Nations, says war correspondent Michael Yon.

JONAS VESTERBERG
April 26, 2023



DARIEN GAP, PANAMA — Michael Yon is a former Special Forces operator – Green Beret – and one of the world’s most accomplished war correspondents. Right now, he is at the Darien Gap in Panama – a hub for human trafficking and illegal immigration. This is where migrants are put on buses to take them further on the journey where the destination is the U.S. southern border.

The Darien Gap camp is a transit point for migrants coming from all corners of the world. It is largely managed by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) – a United Nations agency that promotes and facilitates migration from developing countries and China to the West.



WEAPONIZED MIGRATION

“This is weaponized migration,” Michael Yon tells The Florida Standard. “Weaponized migration is being used to change the U.S. demographic, and it’s going on in many parts of the world. It’s clearly going to destroy Europe and the United States,” Yon says.


Chinese military-age men at Darien Gap

Many of the migrants processed through the Darien Gap and loaded onto buses there are Chinese nationals. Michael Yon says that up to 30 to 40 high-end tour coaches leave the camps each day.

“They drive Highway 1 up to a camp in northwestern Panama near the city David. Then they go in smaller buses towards the Costa Rican border, where they are dropped off. From there they enter Costa Rica and continue north,” Yon explains.

He says that the current rate of migrants processed through the Darien Gap is around 400,000 individuals.

“It’s a serious operation that is well-organized, but it’s ad-hoc as well. There’s a program between Costa Rica and Panama called Controlled Flow, which was brokered by the United States. It makes for migrants to move through Costa Rica in a more or less orderly fashion,” Yon says.

“The Chinese are coming through here in large numbers, about 200 per day and increasing, heading to the U.S. One Chinese man said he had tried to get into Florida by buying a boat in the Bahamas. He paid 5,000 dollars for it but ran out of gas and was picked up by the U.S. Coast Guard. The Bahamians deported him back to China, but he got off the plane in Cuba and then went to Quito, Ecuador. Then to the Darien Gap.”


“MAYORKAS IS NOT SHUTTING IT DOWN”

Department of Homeland Security Mayorkas visited the Darien Gap camp on April 11, where he met with Panamanian leaders – allegedly to discuss ways to curb the migration flow. But Yon says that the motive for the trip was the opposite:

“Mayorkas has intentionally increased the size of the Darien Gap camp. He’s not shutting it down, like some fake reports in the media. They are actually clearing land to expand the camps. I’ve seen the trailers and the brand-new bunk beds myself,” Yon tells The Florida Standard.

Yon says that the U.S. paid Panama $18 million for taking care of migrants, but the Panamanians said they only received one million dollars. Panama spent $8 million last year just on food for the passers-through, Yon states.

About 1,200 migrants per day are passing through, some stay in the camp because they are sick or need to rest. Some stay for months, some a week or less,” says Michael Yon.

THE RED CROSS PROVIDES GUIDE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

Migrants are provided with printed guides with detailed maps and other information on how to get to their target country in the safest manner possible. These folders are produced by the Red Cross and entitled “How to Stay Safe and Well When Migrating.”





Moreover, according to their own statements, the American Red Cross is participating in the domestic trafficking of migrants once they have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border:

“Currently, the American Red Cross is providing support as needed to migrants being bussed by other organizations from the U.S.-Mexico border to U.S. cities. This includes supporting these lead organizations with services for migrants in their care by providing relief supplies or training. And, depending on local needs, our assistance might also include providing food, water, comfort, health services and mental health support,” the website states.

Vile, brutal sexual violence is prevalent on the migration route, as The Florida Standard has previously reported. Women and children are often raped. This is something that the organizations that facilitate illegal immigration are well aware of. They have even developed guidelines and the UN organization IOM provides migrants with so-called “rape kits” in custom shoulder bags.





Michael Yon says that many of the female migrants and children are violated, many multiple times. The “rape kit” contains a female condom, regular condoms and morning-after pills.

“HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF THE WEST”



Michael Yon says that we are watching a true hostile takeover of the West, driven by the fascism of the World Economic Forum and the Chinese Communist Party. The United Nations’ infrastructure and organizations are being used as vehicles.


“They don’t even hide it – they are telling you what they are going to do. Right now, the WEF and the CCP are colluding with each other, but they have different end-state goals. The WEF’s goal is to control the West through techno-fascism. But what many don’t know is that the CCP has a racial component to their ideology. Their goal is for the world to be ruled by Han Chinese,” Yon explains.

Yon has a terrifying prediction for the future.

“Sooner or later, they will put these third-world migrants in American uniforms. Then they will be used against the U.S. population. They are coming to take our homes and cars; they are coming to replace us. And our own government is behind it,” Michael Yon says.

And this, boys and girls is a brief oversight of how your tax dollars are being used to promote illegal entry into the US. No wonder we are scratching our heads as to how to avoid default. mad

EXCLUSIVE: Border Authorities Warn Of Greater Surge In Chinese Illegally Crossing Into US, Reveal Smuggling Routes


Jennie Taer
Investigative Reporter
March 30, 2023

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sent an internal alert to personnel about an expected surge in Chinese migrants crossing the southern border illegally, according to a document exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Border Patrol agents encountered more than 4,200 illegal migrants from China between October 2022 and February 2023, compared to roughly 1,900 in all of fiscal year 2022, according to CBP data.

“Chinese national apprehensions will continue to rise across the SWB [Southwest border]. primarily in Yuma and the Rio Grande Sector, as more Chinese nationals successfully reach the United States to request asylum and information about routes becomes more accessible,” the document stated.

Perhaps the good (D) congressman should be concerned about the US tipping over due to the massive influx of illegals entering our country from the south. Ya think?

Hank Johnson Worries Guam Could "Capsize" After Marine Buildup

By Stephanie Condon

April 1, 2010 / 6:40 PM / CBS News

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) is raising some eyebrows with a comment he made about the U.S. territory of Guam during a House Armed Services Committee hearing last Thursday.

In a discussion regarding a planned military buildup on the Pacific island, Johnson expressed some concerns about the plans to Adm. Robert Willard, head of the U.S. Pacific fleet.

"My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize," Johnson said. Willard paused and replied, "We don't anticipate that."

Online pundits have wasted no time lampooning the congressman for his remarks.

"Presumably, when you're the head guy of a major fleet for a big-time navy, you've got plenty of other ways of filling your time other than reassuring congressmen on whether miscellaneous land masses are likely to tip over and sink," Mark Steyn wrote at the National Review Online. "But it's business as usual in Congress."

The blog Left Coast Rebel said, "Call it a new low, a new 'tipping point' - even in the halls of Congress, if you will."

According to the Hill, a spokesman for Johnson responded to the incident by saying the congressman is concerned the influx of military personnel will overwhelm the island's infrastructure and ecosystem.

If Johnson's remarks were meant figuratively, he had a legitimate point.

The United States plans to move thousands of Marines and their families, about 8,000 people in all, to the small island of Guam, which has a current population of about 180,000. To prepare for the military buildup, the government is constructing new facilities on the island like an additional Marine base and a new airfield.

At the peak of construction, Guam's population would increase by 79,000 people, or about 45 percent, the Washington Post reported. The Environmental Protection Agency has reportedly said the military buildup could trigger island-wide water shortages and overload sewage systems and other public utilities.

Update 6:30 p.m. ET: Johnson released a statement on Thursday saying he was joking, according to CNN.

"The subtle humor of this obviously metaphorical reference to a ship capsizing illustrated my concern about the impact of the planned military buildup on this small tropical island," the statement said.
