    A 60-foot strip of land along the United States-Mexico border was given to the U.S. government in a document from President Donald Trump on Friday.

    Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins are required to “provide for the use and control by the Department of Defense over such National lands, including the Roosevelt Reservation and excluding Federal Indian Reservations, that are fairly necessary to enable military pursuits,” according to Friday’s memo.

    According to the president’s memo, the order may include “border-barrier construction and the implantation of recognition and monitoring equipment.”

    Trump remarked that “our southern border is under assault from a variety of challenges.” Our government should play a more active role in securing our southeastern borders than it did in the recent past due to the complexity of the current situation.

    A 60-foot strip of land that is part of the Roosevelt Reservation along the southwestern border between the United States and Mexico is described in Trump’s document, according to Fox News. The 60-foot strip of land will be deemed a “military deployment” and designated as a” National Defense Area” where “military activities” does take place under the government’s order.

    In his document, Trump states that Hegseth has the authority to “determine those military actions that are fairly necessary and appropriate to complete the goal” of securing the southern border.

    According to Fox News, the Roosevelt Reservation stretches across New Mexico, California, and Arizona. The former president Theodore Roosevelt first designated the Roosevelt Reservation as federal land in 1907 in an effort to safe the southern border, according to the store.

    Some pro-Trump supporters of the government’s document have argued that the purchase might offend the” Posse Comitatus Act,” which prohibits active-duty military officers from carrying out home law enforcement actions, according to The Post Millennial.

    Welp, they’re doing the Roosevelt Reservation insane plan, giving the defense” control” over a 60-foot-wide stretch of land from CA to AZ, and then claim that workers are being detained for” trespassing on military home,” in an attempt to pass the Posse Commitatus Act, tweeted Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, a senior fellow at the American Immigration Council.
