President Trump sending troops to border

HOUSTON (FOX 26) - President Trump has ordered National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border immediately.

The White House says his order could mean troops are on patrol as soon as tonight.

This comes after he pledged strong action today on immigration, and a day after he said he wanted to use the military to secure the southern border until a border wall can be built.
