News from the border.
CBP "bubble" intel out to L.E. on numbers about to cross into US.
42,000 staged in El Paso
15,000 near Palomas, MEXICO (population <5,000, "Pancho Villa" territory). These two points are about 75 miles apart.
No idea where they could possibly house 15k in Palomas, or have enough food for that many people. Been there many times.
Confirmed w/ source, wall is not finished between El Paso & Palomas, MX; still a lot of gaps in the wall over the arroyos.
10 miles west of Palomas the wall ends in the middle of Johnson farm (they've been on FoxNews) at west end of the fields. Cattle portion not protected by the wall. On the west end of the wall the border "wall" changes to 3 strands of barb wire (personal knowledge). Barb wire constantly being cut, USgov does not help them with repair costs. MX cattle cross into US (disease problem), and theirs escape to MX (permanently disappear) if they don't get the wire spliced back together quick enough.
On the south side of the border there is an abandoned town where the cartel stages the drug mules to cross in this area. Cartel controls the crossing area. The drug mules and other illegals that cross thru that location come thru my area. A lot of ground sensors in the area, as well as cameras. Don't know if a CBP agent still sits up high in that area.
Last two times I went to Palomas (recent), no CBP at the interior checkpoint. Used to always be 3-4 guys. Lately just 1.
Last time I crossed from AZ to El Paso along the border, I didn't see a single border patrol ! Not even one! That's a first. And no L.E. (not unusual - very few deputies in county areas with square miles larger than some states in this country. Seriously, less than 20 total.)
Large group all illegals caught recently, each carrying $10-$20,000 and drugs. CBP allegedly didn't want anything to do w/ cash and small amount of drugs. Nobody to prosecute. Don't know if entering the country, or leaving. Forgot to ask my source.
1500 military troops to border (has already been posted).

Population in US side in NM.
Lordsburg - <3000
Rodeo >100
Deming >14,000
Columbus 1600
So alsmot the same number of people about to cross illegally, than the entire population of towns from I-10 to the border (excluding Las Cruces, since the other group is headed thru El Paso).
Across the whole area, two walmarts w/ grocery stores, four little grocery stores. That many mouths? They are going to be like LOCUSTS!
They go right up to houses, open spigots to drink water, and leave the spigot open. This is a real problem. No city water out in the desert. Many have to pull up water from wells and store water. Others have pumps/pressure tanks that get overwhelmed.
If they literally storm the border, and bypass CBP entry points, I will not be surprised if there are headlines that some homeowner(s) got scared and fired shotgun or rifle if the house(s) has a large number trying to steal water. It's happened before.
