| The Department of Homeland Security requested Friday that the deployment of military troops be extended to Jan. 31 for "the ongoing threat at the southern border," according to department spokeswoman Katie Waldman. She said DHS also requested law enforcement officers working at other federal agencies contribute to border security because President Donald Trump "has made it clear that border security is a top administration priority." The request, which is being reviewed by the Defense Department, is for the number of troops to remain at about 4,000, according to The Associated Press. |
