Honest question: Why wasn’t this done weeks or even months ago?
I guess better than nothing, but this is far from enough. Letting women and children to continue to invade? No. Arrest them? Then what? How about everyone immediately deported.
I would put in a massive land mine field where there is no border wall. This is an invasion and it is way, way past time we started treating it like it is.
The U.S. Federal Government for decades has proven it is unstable and has proven it will make the wrong decision every time.
Texas will have to take over illegal border jumpers.............no other choice.
Hmmm...
After the arrest, what happens?
Hopefully they are shoveled back across the border...
Hopefully they are NOT transferred to the federal border patrol...
How many adult males will be allowed in a “family group”?
So whats the penalty for trespassing? 5 days in jail at the max? This is going to be Arrest and release isn’t it Abbott? Smooth! Texas being conned by this idiot again! If anything they need to be shot at like Alex Baldwin on a movie set to send the message INVASIONS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!
I am thankful he has made this decision!...Period!
I wish AZ and Cartelfornia would do this.
Deputize millions of willing, armed Texans and send them to the border.
Next: Texas National Guard engineers will be used to build the border wall on private lands.
Would be nice if NG funds were also used to hire private contractors to help them build these walls. I suggest contacting previously used private contractors and see if they want to sign new contracts with the State and National Guard.
Would some Freeper from Texas forward this suggestion to the right people in the state government. I don’t know anyone down there.
So if you are a citizen trespass in the capital a9the people’s house) you get jailed for months with no court date or due process. Then you get fined BUT if you trespass into our country you get free lifetime EVERYTHING. Corrupt much dems?
I was “armed” many times in my 20 year career, including M16, M10 (S&W 38 SPL), and M1911 (45 ACP) with nary a single round of ammo in sight so I’m not getting excited about this Lying, Dying Fake News Liberal Media - NO Lie They Won’t Tell report.
And do what with them, where?
Hmmm...let’s see. The federal government creates immigration LAW. It then ignores those same immigration LAWS.
So, if I were traveling down the highway with a speed limit of 65 mph and I simply chose to ignore the 65 mph speed limit law and step on the pedal to do 85 mph...by ignoring the law would I not be BREAKING the law?
Uh huh. Those in the Harris/Biden administration are breaking the law. The only recourse to bring them into compliance would be a separate but equal branch of the government, The U.S. Supreme Court.
If the federal government can simply ignore (break) the law, then why should we adhere to the law?
I remember Jorge Bush using at nauseum the phrase, “The Rule of Law”. I hated hearing that phrase.
There is no “Rule of Law” in America. There is no equal justice under the law in America. There is no longer due process under the law in America.
I’m not just saying this to be provocative...it is just reality. Laws by lawmakers are ignored. Executive orders thrown about by the president, governors, county judges, city mayors that all conflict with one another’s edicts.
Everyone wielding power, everyone ignoring each others power. Kinda comical really.
Why should hard working, law abiding, tax paying citizens abide by the law/rules/regulations when millions of illegals pour into our country/states with impunity? Breaking our laws, falsifying government documents, perjuring themselves to illegally obtain government assistance on the state/federal/local governmental levels.
Not advocating anything...just thinking through the mess we find ourselves. Just appears like a damn free for all and the middle class average joe six pack is stuck paying the tab all the while being labeled homophobe, xenophobe, transphobe, evil white racist bigots.
Finally!!!
If he ever hoped to be president...that’s shot, Gov. Abbott (sp?)
Why not line the banks of the Rio Grande and prevent them frome setting foot on the US side ?
Gov. Greg Abbott allow a bounty on illegals it’s the only to get the job done bonus round everyone gets to earn money.
No D.O.A. excepted
