Nancy Pelosi: ‘Mowing The Grass’ At Border Will Keep Out Illegal Aliens

Nancy Pelosi put forth a new idea for border security, arguing that "mowing the grass" in some areas would be more effective than building a wall.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi put forth a new idea for border security, arguing that “mowing the grass” in some areas would be more effective than building a wall.

In an interview with the Arizona Republic, Pelosi (D-Calif.) said she “is not the biggest advocate” for President Trump’s long-promised wall as part of a negotiation on a fix for Dreamers.

Let’s talk about where a more serious structure might be necessary, where fencing will do or mowing the grass so people can’t be smuggled through the grass,” she proposed, also mentioning adding levees, technology and personnel to enhance border security.




Pelosi, who has a personal net worth of almost $200 million, also dismissed Trump’s repeated promises that Mexico will pay for the wall’s construction. Pelosi said lawmakers from border states have “serious objections to a wall” because it could hurt “the community trade.

If Pelosi is referring to “the community trade” in narcotics and human trafficking, then she is right.

Fox reports: In a December interview with Brian Kilmeade at the U.S.-Mexico border, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said new sections of the wall would be built, but stressed that Congress would need to provide funding.




Congress is expected to face a renewed battle over Dreamers, with the next government shutdown looming on March 23. The White House has proposed a path to citizenship for 1.8 million Dreamers to go along with $25 billion in border wall funds and ending chain migration and the visa lottery.

  1. That’s what happens when you smoke the grass, you talk a lot of stupid stuff.It’s time for you to be laid out in the pasture “old cow”

  2. Publish date 3-30 but obviously written prior to 3-23. Old news, Trump now has all the money needed to build the wall using the Army Corp of Engineers.

  3. This lady is an enemy of the people of the USA. Why even publish what this traitor has to say. Neither wall nor mowing are needed just allow the border patrol to do their jobs and stop three letter agencies from bringing hoards of people across the border by flashing their badges to the border guards. In fact impower the border patrol to arrest, not the immigrants but those who mislead them like the 3 letter agency people. Watch border patrol interviews (if still available on Youtube) to determine the truth for yourself.

  4. Ok naasty pelosi get your lawn mower and lead the way, by the way to save the enviorment make it a push type. If you wish not to participate then spend some of your millions buying push mowers and hiring children to do the job. But you will have to go to supervise, keep us posted on the project nasty pelosi. Maybe when your done mowing you can put up cheap signs that read we can see you now so don’t try coming to USA

  5. I have a few suggestions to enhance the walls effectiveness, add motion sensors that trigger SAWS and bloopers, The animals will be smart enough to stay away…… the terrorists?????? we will see…………………..
