'Unbelievable'! Border patrol agents OPEN the gates at a crossing point letting in illegal migrants at the southern border moments after Greg Abbott's Texas National Guard had locked them: More than two million have crossed in 2022 - a 22-year high

This is the moment Border Patrol agents opened the gates at the southern border to let illegal migrants in - just after Texas National Guard officers had locked it.

Footage showed the armed agents - who work under the direction of the Biden administration - unbuckle the barb-wire fence before several asylum seekers - including men, women and children - walked through.

Agents then stood around chatting and finally shut the barrier between Mexico and the US after dozens had filed past them into the country, as the Texas National Guard watched on helplessly.

The video was roundly slammed online, with Texas Governor Greg Abbott leading the charge by branding it 'unbelievable' and blaming Joe Biden's border policies for the influx.

Make no mistake, the Federal government hates Texas. They want Texas to turn blue at any cost. If that happens, it’s over.

Abbott had the real power to stop this. He’s a career milquetoast politician. He plays the game to appear tough and conservative. Texas deserves a real man of virtue. He’s pathetic.

....as the Texas National Guard watched on helplessly

Without arms, ammunition, a willingness to use them and orders to do so, troops at the border are nothing but props for photo-ops.

Sadly that document is not the “controlling legal authority” for the current cabal.

Dunno why we keep posting re this travesty. We're watching history unfold before our very eyes. Even in grammar school, I learned the average age of empires/kingdoms was around 200 years. Then comes collapse.

This is our collapse. There's no coming back from this. We abandoned God when we, as a nation, began applauding, promoting, protecting deviant sexual sins. And He's doing to us what He did to the Old Testament Church, viz. gave them and their nation over to their enemies.

History repeats itself.

They’re not “migrants”.

They’re criminal, illegal alien invaders.

If all illegal alien invaders had the same uniform on, we’d look like a country under occupation.

Cut off state and federal aid and it will stop. It burns me up to see veterans and veteran organizations having to beg for dollars yet we give away to almost everyone else.

It's inevitable and closer than you might imagine... Beto turned the last large county Tarrant (Ft. Worth) purple in the last election with Ted Cruz.

There are no large population red counties left.

You could be right….
….but don’t forget His MERCY!

God calls us to not live in fear!
If those who know Him perish…..there’s GLORY!!!

I pray for our nation, that God would restore her.
There are millions praying this….the remnant!

‘The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much’
