WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President-elect Donald Trump will declare a national emergency at the U.S. southern border with Mexico on Monday and announce plans to send additional armed forces to help secure the border, an incoming Trump administration official said.
The official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity ahead of Trump’s inauguration as president, said Trump would also designate criminal cartels as designated global terrorists.
