    Customs and Border Protection requested $145m in US military support to surveil the US-Canada border with mobile cameras and ground sensors. The plan was rebuffed by the Joint Chiefs due to concerns over Canada's response, per Pentagon docs leaked to me: https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/canada-border-covid-security/ … pic.twitter.com/zqwmeGuEep

        Is it to keep people out or to keep us in, I wonder?

        The thing with borders is that, while they keep people out, they equally make it difficult to leave when necessary. Wait till the earth dries up, water becomes scarce, and Americans try to leave to (temporary) greener pastures to become asylym seekers and end up locked up.

        This was the scariest part of Handmaids' Tale - the idea that by the time you realize how bad everything is about to get, it's too late and your government won't let you leave. Trust me, there are plenty of us down here with that on our minds.
