Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) said Monday that his state is deploying a new “tactical border force” to turn back migrants ahead of the expected surge when the federal government’s Title 42 policy ends on Thursday.

“We’re deploying today a new Texas tactical border force made up of elite National Guard who are specifically trained for one thing,” Abbott said in an interview with Fox News on Monday. “And that is to identify areas illegal immigrants are trying to cross the border and to fill that gap and to repel them.”

How about multiple strands of concertina wire?

On my way home on Saturday morning doing some things at work, ran into 40 illegals standing on the corner of the Boarder Highway here in El Paso. Just crazy they were all just milling around. There was a Boarder Patrol Vehicle arriving as I left. People are fed up.

Yesterday, I criticized Abbott for his remarks on the mall shooting. He called for state mental facilities and drug treatment clinics. I couldn’t see how that could have helped in the case of the mall shooting. It turns out that the shooter had been discharged from the military for being mentally unstable. They knew this from the beginning and I would bet that this guy was on some watch list, too

It’s not going to do any good until they are weapons free. Kill the invaders.

So impressed. NOT. Send all TXNG troops, fully armed and with rules of engagement to kill anything crossing the border. It will immediately stop illegal immigration and quickly eliminate the murder, rape and abuse of illegals. It’s the humane thing to do.

It would only take a day or two of this and there would be mass stampedes back into mexico.
