"AMAZING -- Since the Biden administration has kicked
@BillFoxLA and his team out from flying Fox News's drones along the U.S./Mexico border in Del Rio, TX, *local* law enforcement decided to get him a helicopter to hop in and go check things out to continue reporting."

I guess law enforcement is exempt from FAA rules

Depends on the type of TFR.

I love when solutions are employed to work around the Biden Administration’s authoritarianism.

I chuckled at this story anyway.

FOX should have just told the FAA to Go frick Itself and flown its drone anyway.

ATC can usually clear you through a TFR in some cases. Especially if it’s a low enforcement aircraft.
Get ready for orders to come into whoever control that airspace to not allow any overflights at all.

How long before the FAA declares the airspace above the camp restricted?

Then, every civilian within 200 miles with a drone and camera will show up.

Go ahead FAA. Try to enforce that shite

The FAA has now backed down and allowed them to fly their drone again:

Texas needs to shut down its international border and send a message to the Feds to get fricked.

Abbott, Cruz, anyone? We need these people turned around and sent right back to Mexico. Don't process them, send them back today. Why in the hell are there not agents at that shallow dam preventing them from getting in the country?

But all kidding aside...we literally have hundreds of thousands of aliens entering our country illegally. That used to be called an INVASION and would warrant a military response.

Name another country that allows this kind of shite to happen? Even third world shite holes have tighter borders.

My first thought as well. We're about to have our very first US Border No-Fly Zone.
