He needs another line explaining that he will stop any efforts to resettle Syrians in Texas with the police and National Guard if necessary, and he will arrest those officials attempting to facilitate that resettlement.
Obamamugabe can federalize the National Guard. Abbott needs to refer to the Texas State Guard instead (cannot be federalized).
Yes! Post of the day right there! And the governors who feel the same way (ideally, it should be all of them) should stand together on this.
The title says Gov. Abbott will not accept any refugees. But his letter only says he will not participate in the process (that's big difference).
So which is it, governor? No refugees, or just no participation, and the Fed's just go right around you?
