On Monday the Supreme Court said the federal government has the authority to remove razor wire that Texas installed at the southern border. Homeland Security said Texas had until Friday to give federal authorities access to Eagle Pass. But Governor Abbott is doubling down saying he’ll increase state patrol of the border, adding more barriers and more razor wire.
On Friday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton refused the federal government’s request for access to the border and demanded proof that the federal government has the authority to turn a Texas park into a port of entry.
Twenty-five Republican governors are backing Gov. Abbott’s stance; they say Texas has the constitutional right to self-defense. Gov. Abbott says he believes those states would be willing to send troops to the border if needed.
The slow roll toward Civil War continues.
Only on election years. Theater, but we all pay the price.
I would love to watch the war between Texas and the US military. It would last like 4 minutes.
I think it’s fair to say we’ve been in a cold civil war for some time now.
Just waiting for federal felonies to be handed out left and right
