“You should spend your time and energy on something other than trying to “get” me or the Governor.”
Like I said above, Wow!!! I didn’t mean to push your button. I will remove myself from further comments or postings as I tend to get things wrong. Life is to short for this.
Oh it’s ok, I watch them get detained and sent back to Mexico in the old days, whether it is a called a crime or not I do not know, but if they are being detained and sent back it sure seems like it to me. But whatever.
Whether it was your intention or not you did upset me. This is how evil wins, getting us to turn on each other and turning on the few people that are doing something. But please don’t leave on my account.
Gov. Greg Abbott says Biden in cahoots with cartels, White House says Texas border force adds chaos
He accused President Joe Biden of “collaboration” with smuggling cartels and said Texas is being “undermined” and “overrun by our own federal government.”
The White House took a dim view of the deployment, which came without a heads-up, and of the governor’s rhetoric that included describing the situation as a “Biden-made crisis.”
“There’s a way to handle those types of announcements and the governor knows this,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said. “That’s by coordinating with federal authorities, something that he refuses to do.”
The new Texas unit is tasked with intercepting, repelling and turning back migrants at border “hot spots,” Abbott said over the din of military aircraft.
He boasted that no state has ever done more to defend its international border, touting Operation Lone Star, a multibillion-dollar effort using the National Guard and state public safety officers.
“This is just about political theater for him. This is not really dealing with this issue. It’s about creating more chaos. It’s about creating more confusion at the border,” Jean-Pierre said.
Texas has used a trespassing misdemeanor to arrest unauthorized immigrants.
Abbott also resumed inspections of commercial trucks last Tuesday, though the dragnet had already loosened by Monday after causing delays up to 26 hours into Brownsville. Abbott employed the tactic in April 2022 and again last summer, bringing attention to his complaints about federal failures at the border while also sparking complaints about lost trade.
