And so the idea that there would be drone defense against that is good because you'll see a lot of cartel drones come and spy, look for where Border Patrol isn't, look for right times for crossings, drugs, you know, people, stuff like that.

The 10 day closure of the airspace is what's indicative of what happens in this administration, which is instead of there being a mature discussion about what's happening.

The Bulwark Podcast

Laser is returnable and cheap right now to shoot down a drone.

The Bulwark Podcast
