Border Patrol agents don’t want to cut Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s border wire after the Supreme Court ordered that the federal government can take it down, National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The Supreme Court ruled Monday that federal authorities can take down wire that Texas erected along the southern border, but the state is putting up more wire in Eagle Pass, Texas, at Shelby Park, which it took control of earlier this month. Border Patrol agents largely support Texas’ efforts, several rank-and-file agents recently told the DCNF .
BP agents in the field, want to do their job which consists of apprehending illegal entrants and shipping them south.

The reporting on this from both sides is terrible.
The lower courts granted an injunction prohibiting CBP from removing state-owned razor wire as the case of Texas v. the Feds moved forward.
The Supreme Court merely invalidated the injunction, probably because the law is sufficiently unclear as to whether or not the state will win to warrant an injunction.
There was no order prohibiting the state from placing wire. But now CPB can remove it, even if Texas just puts it back right behind them.
The possibility of real conflict comes if Texas tries to stop CBP from removing the wire or arrests CPB agents, which Abbott appears to be avoiding.

Thanks for the great summary. Nobody else has explained it that succinctly. It appears you are not paid by the word because you didn’t write 10,000 words.

“The possibility of real conflict comes if Texas tries to stop CBP from removing the wire or arrests CPB agents, which Abbott appears to be avoiding.”
The truth is the CBP agents have an understanding behind the scenes with the deployed Texas DPS troopers and National Guard soldiers to secure the border regardless of the treasonous communist junta that is the Biden administration. All are Texas patriots who stand firmly for the safety and security of Texas residents. They know the community supports them solidly in their efforts to “Hold the Line!”
