  • Tech from Border Security Expo 2026 unveiled to NewsNation | Bradley on the Border
    May 7 2026

    In this episode of "Bradley on the Border," host Ali Bradley takes viewers inside the 2026 Border Security Expo in Phoenix, Arizona, where over 175 vendors showcase the next generation of security tech. From a thumb-sized thermal drone called the “Black Hornet," to a thermal robotic K-9 that can detect just about anything, vendors say all of this can be used to improve security at the nation's borders.


    U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott also spoke with Bradley, sharing that the U.S. now has “the most secure border in the history of the entire United States,” citing more than 80 miles of new border barriers.
