\n

Back when President Joe Biden<\/a> was presiding over essentially open U.S. borders, I\u00a0argued\u00a0that contrary to leftist wishes, border walls actually do work. They are not intended to stop everyone coming through, by any means, but to stop illegal people, goods and drugs getting through easily.<\/p>\n

Now the Department of\u00a0Homeland Security<\/a> is using “smart walls” that combine\u00a0high-tech with good old-fashioned tall, strong barriers to prevent illegal entry. The idea is not new, even if the technology is.<\/p>\n

The ancient Romans\u00a0had an early version of\u00a0smart walls. At\u00a0Hadrian\u2019s Wall in what is now northern England, the Roman empire established a wall to mark their northern frontier, punctuated by forts. Vindolanda\u00a0is the best preserved large fort, with the layout still visible in stone foundations and a wealth of archeological finds to\u00a0help us guess what every building was.<\/p>\n

Starting in the 1970s, archeologists found remarkably well-preserved personal items, due to the ideal conditions of the surrounding soil. There were not just durable coins, metal, glass and stone, but even leather shoes and clothes, as well as a trove of letters written\u00a0on\u00a0thin wood that departing troops\u00a0had failed to burn. We know a lot about\u00a0how they lived and worked, communicated, and ran their army.<\/p>\n

TRUMP SENDS MILITARY AFTER THE CARTELS AND IT\u2019S LONG OVERDUE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A “dumb wall” would be just putting up a barrier and\u00a0hoping no\u00a0one could get over, under or around it. The Romans didn\u2019t rely\u00a0on\u00a0that. First, though their wall was easy to cross, it created a visible frontier that any northern tribes would be aware of and thus know they were crossing without permission into Roman territory. The occasional\u00a0head\u00a0on\u00a0a spike, evidence of which was found at Vindolanda, was a primitive warning to the illiterate tribes to the north that maybe proceeding further was a bad idea. That\u2019s what today we\u2019d call psychological operations, or “psy-ops.”<\/p>\n

Second, like the U.S. southern border<\/a> barrier system, the Roman wall in northern Britain also\u00a0had early models of signals intelligence to better direct resources to areas under threat. Vindolanda was manned by a cohort, about 500 men or a tenth of a legion. The men went\u00a0on\u00a0regular foot and\u00a0horse-back patrol. They were ready to move to wherever a threat presented, warned either by\u00a0horse-borne messengers or by signal fires lit at\u00a0high points along the frontier. They received regular correspondence from the other forts, and occasionally from Rome itself, to keep them informed.<\/p>\n

TRUMP’S BORDER ENFORCEMENT UNLEASHES NEW WEAPON AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Two thousand years later, the modern U.S. Border Patrol\u00a0has more men than the Romans did in Britain, but they are still few compared to the land they cover. The Border Patrol is getting some much-needed new manpower and resources, after years of neglect under Biden<\/a> and former Secretary of\u00a0Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, who diverted staff off the line to processing and releasing illegal aliens into the country.<\/p>\n

But even with the significant boost they are getting in the\u00a0One Big Beautiful Bill Act, they will still be thinly spread along 1,800 miles of southern border and nearly 5,000 in the north. That\u2019s why, like Roman signal fires and messengers,\u00a0high-tech cameras, sensors, drones and lights\u00a0on\u00a0the wall or around the border area can all\u00a0help detect illegal crossings early, so that the Patrol can send vehicles and officers quickly to intercept them.<\/p>\n

Under Biden, illegal aliens were so confident of being released that they gladly surrendered to any American in uniform. Millions were released over Biden\u2019s four years. Under President Donald Trump<\/a>,\u00a0however, things\u00a0have completely changed.\u00a0Encounters\u00a0of illegal aliens at the border between ports of entry are about a tenth of what they were in the peak Biden months.<\/p>\n

And unlike the Biden years, almost none are being released into the interior to await years of immigration process<\/a>. Instead, as the law requires, they are mostly being detained throughout any applicable immigration process until the U.S.\u00a0has determined whether they\u00a0have a right to remain. This fact alone\u00a0has discouraged many from even attempting to come illegally.<\/p>\n

DHS\u00a0recently announced the award of $4.5 billion in contracts for 230 miles of various types of barriers along the border with Mexico<\/a>. This includes 80 miles of the barriers in the middle of the Rio Grande along the Texas border, which may include the effective spinning orange buoys that the state installed in the face of Biden administration opposition as part of operation Lone Star in 2023.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0DHS\u00a0“smart wall” means not just 30-foot steel bollard walls, but better roads for Border Patrol vehicles to respond to incursions, as well as lights, cameras and sensors.\u00a0Smart Walls\u00a0will be built or enhanced in El Paso and Del Rio Texas, San Diego and El Centro in California, and in Tucson and Yuma, Arizona \u2013 site of the Morelos Gap, where I saw\u00a0hundreds of illegals cross in\u00a0one night in 2023.<\/p>\n

The Roman empire knew that walls worked. If well-manned and supported, they could create a stable frontier with limited access according to rules they set. In Trump\u2019s second term, the United States is implementing the same, proven tactics to limit illegal entry to the United States, thus reducing drug smuggling,\u00a0human trafficking and other crime.<\/p>\n
