Fox News host demands 'fortified boundary' on Canadian border

Fox News host Emily Compagno said that the United States needs a "fortified boundary" or another type of wall on the northern border with Canada.

During a panel discussion on the Fox News Outnumbered program, Compagno pointed to news that illegal northern border crossings had doubled in recent years.

"Just focusing back on the northern border," she said. "You know it's a misnomer when people say now the drugs are coming from Canada. We have 150 countries represented by the millions of illegal immigrants flooding over the southern border. Canada is no different."

"I wonder what the name will be of the soldier who dies trying to save someone at the northern border," she continued. "And I have to point out, every forward operating base and FOB that we've been to in Iraq and the like, every full-operational military base in foreign soil and here in this country, right?"

She's just afraid they're going to import their socialized medicine.

And dear god, don't tell her about the Maine / New Brunswick potato land. It's a virtual, cross border free for all between Florenceville-Bristol (proud home of Potato World!), Caribou and Presque Isle. Gasp!!!!

By the way, McCain fries rule. Others just drool.

in the Superior National Forest. The forest is very dense and there are a lot of swamps, rivers and lakes. In the summer you will need a canoe, good hiking boots and a lot of mosquito repellent, and in the winter you will need snowshoes and very warm clothes. Millions of refugees buying clothes, camping gear, canoes or snowshoes would be a big boost to the local economy, though. Thunder Bay would be sold out of that stuff in no time.

Fuck Rupert Murdoch to the fieriest pit of hell. If there is a hell, it waits for Fox News and the MAGA lunatics.

They are applying for asylum from the socialist Canadian regime. That dome Trump is going to build will keep them out.
