He may not catch many if he only arrests them during the summit meeting.

Biden's fedgov is in breach of contract, so Texas is in the right to protect itself.

All right!

BTW, I have nothing against Latin American immigrants, and most who apply to come in legally would be admitted. We actually do need the workers, since our domestic population seems not to be willing to work, There are almost 4 million on unemployment, probably that amount again of able bodied people who aren’t on unemployment because they’ve never even considered working…and 9 million vacant jobs).

The only thing that makes me mad is that the Dems are exploiting this in a way that does nothing but give power to the human trafficking cartels and the leftist dictators in Latin America.

Mexico and several other Latin American states are very opposed to the Biden “policy” …for one thing, it subjects their citizens to criminal gangs and it takes away the citizens they need.

And the Dems don’t want these people to work when they get here…they want to put them on welfare in order to increase the Dem constituency.

Texas didn’t cede over a border right away to the Federal Government when we joined the Union. The Moment they cross the line they’re trespassing either on State land or Private land.

Hey Governor, it’s YOUR damn state, why don’t you enforce YOUR border all the time?

“Not my job” is no excuse.

Trump was on the job, and he was doing it beautifully. Biden came along and did a complete 180, and it took a while, but it’s now obvious that he intended all the consequences. So the governor is stepping up to the plate. Good. Better if he had gotten started on 1/22/21, but now is a good time, time.

🙄 Right after 180,000 illegal invaders crossed our borders now they’re thinking about arresting them. And then you arrest them what do you do next? ship them back home or do they stay here on our soil? And do you think for one minute that the swamp and the globalists in DC are going to let governor Abbott have his way? Hell no! Watch all the legalities that will come down the tunnel.

The only one happy with this plan in the swamp is Kamala because this hot potato will be taken off her hands.

Constitutional contests already in the works. This is a matter of federal law-enforcement, dontcha know. And if the federal government doesn’t give a good sh!t, you’ll just have to drop your pants and squeal like a pig, if you want deliverance.

Shoot the Coyotes. Ship the border hoppers back home in a big airplane with no name other than “deportee,” unless they brought in Fentanyl, cocaine or meth, in which case arrest them, put their kids in cages, and show no empathy.

Seems those railing against Governor Abbott might want to consider that the borders were being enforced under the Trump administration. Everything has been reversed in just 5 months. I read just the other day that illegal immigration into the U.S. has jumped up to over 600%.

In all fairness to Governor Abbott, imho, those things should be considered before hanging the man out to dry. I don't live in Texas, but it seems he's done a pretty fair job there and yes I know about the mask thing. Nobody is perfect...especially a politician but he's done some 'right' things as well. He beats a leftist nutbag any day.

For good measure just put them in a cannon and shoot them back to Guatamala.

He should take a lesson from Joe Arpaio, and house the illegals in inexpensive tent cities (that are entirely legal according to international law). Feed them green American, not Mexican, bologna and oatmeal; for dinner bulk raisins and peanuts.

No such thing as tortillas, rice and beans.
