What’s Happening:
For months, we’ve seen the Southern border grow out of control. Reports indicate over one million migrants have flooded the country. More are on their way. Clearly, this is a situation that needs to end.
But, as you can imagine, Joe Biden is blatantly ignoring the situation.
Governors from border states have called on Joe to do something. His administration has ignored them. So, a team of Republican governors is taking matters into their own hands. And they are storming the border themselves.
From IJR:
Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott announced he will join 10 additional GOP governors for a news conference at the U.S.-Mexico border on Wednesday to address the growing border crisis…
“Texas National Guard is gearing up at the border for increased caravans attempting to cross the border caused by Biden’s open border policy,” Abbott tweeted Saturday.
A team of governors will be appearing at the Southern border today to address Biden’s ongoing crisis. These governors have petitioned Biden for solutions to this problem. But he has not responded.
The border crisis hurts more than just Texas and Arizona. Biden is bussing many of these migrants to communities across the country. Many more will find their way in cities from coast to coast. No one is immune to this issue.
So, it should be no surprise that so many governors are standing up to Biden. We can’t predict what these leaders will say. But it is likely they will use the moment to highlight this crisis. And to put pressure on Biden and his administration.
The MSM is all too happy to ignore the border, in order to protect Biden’s failing reputation. But when a team of governors appears at the border to blast the administration? That’s hard to ignore. These leaders might announce their own initiatives to combat the crisis.
It’s pretty shocking to think we have a “president” who is blissfully ignoring such a serious problem. Does Biden think he can let the border get worse and worse—and not suffer for it? Does he think he and his party will come out standing in 2022—with this kind of track record?
He really must be off his rocker. Key Takeaways:
-A team of Republican governors will appear at the Southern border. -The group, led by Gov. Abbott, will highlight Biden’s growing border crisis. -A number of governors have petitioned the administration, but have been ignored.
even Trump really got nothing done on the border, let the people on la frontera run the border!
Creating crises seems to be their their number one priority. Creating crises and then ignoring them.
that and eating tacos..
They should all form independent state-directed militias, with no federal money or cooperation. Completely seperate
then send them to Texas border with permission from the state.

Abbott has done nothing on this. Nothing. It is just political theater because he has primary opponents.
He’s also not enforcing his Order on Vax mandates. It is a weak Order but he has done nothing on it.
Maybe it is time for Governor Allen West, I don’t live in Texas however I agree that Abbott has been an abject FAILURE on the border, he is becoming a swamp creature!!
Sam Houston never fought at the Alamo. There are talkers and doers, and Abbott is just a straight man for Costello.
Abbott is a failure on just about everything. He was forced to sign a Constitutional carry bill which he did not support. He won’t debate his primary opponents and in general refuses to meet with grassroots conservatives. He’s a feckless milquetoast Guv who talks big then does squat.
And just exactly what will 11 Governors standing and speaking at the border do? Unless they have our military/ national guard positioned to act.
standing up to a dead man walking funny
Let me know if anything comes of it!!! Not holding my breath!!! Getting tired of talk, talk, talk, etc.
Peddle this bullshit elsewhere. Trump did more than any other president, ever.
Theater. If they were going to actually do something, they wouldn’t be meeting for a news conference about “addressing the issue”.
Yawn ... wake me up when any “republican” actually DOES something.
Who are the other 10 governors? The article didn’t say.
Ooh, a news conference. What's next? A sternly worded letter?
They put Biden on double secret probation.
Abbott doing theater. Has he ever actually done anything to help fix the situation?
