Finally, an article title that is short, to the point and makes sense.

All the more reason for Abbott to be Trump’s VP. Imagine that, a real border czar in the White House. Dan Patrick is more conservative than Abbott, makes it a win win.

You’re right, Obama is the puppet master. But Dr. Jill is his handler and she desperately wants to hang around for another four years. And, of course, Obama also wants another term so there’s some incentive there for them to step back from the edge.

Then again, if things start to look hopeless for Biden I can definitely see him doing something crazy to Texas.

“It’s irritating to me to hear people keep blaming Joe Biden for everything”

************

He may not be running the show but Biden has spent nearly 50 years in DC. He knows full well what the effects of his policies are. Everything he’s done is intentional.

Don’t be a Putz. It’s the Federal Government that is in open rebellion against the States.

Well, things don’t look too good for Biden. I think he’s outta here.

If Obama is going to do something with Biden he’d better do it now!

BTW apparently there’s a truckers’ convoy headed for the Texas border. Do the Leftists, the REAL insurgents, want a war? Then let’s have at it.

“hopefully Texas has studied history. South Carolina tried this and lost.”

My family left Mexico-and the oppressive Spanish govt-before 1800 to live on what was the frontier/frontera-West Texas and NM-like all Tejanos, they fought being told what to do by Spain and their govt in Mexico, and won in 1821. and by the 1820’s they were joined by settlers from some Southern States and Germany who didn’t like the govt in Mexico either. So they got together, fought Mexico and won in 1836. You still don’t tell Tejanos what to do-we really don’t like it-we tend to fight back and like to win. My Gonzales battle flag-the come-and-take-it- is already up on my gate, right beside the Texas flag. Viva Texas!

Pulling ALL of the string; she pulled wee barry's too and lives in their house in D.C.!

Obama has ALWAYS been the puppet and he is NOT pulling Biden's strings; his handlers are!

“Greg Abbott is having his finest moment on the border issue. He’s not defying SCOTUS or Biden, he’s upholding his oath. The razor wire, & bussing illegal to sanctuary cities, has forced America’s electeds to act. The dam is breaking. I don’t say it often, but bravo, TX GOV!
25 governors have now pledged support.”

“ I cannot IMAGINE the torment of being a BP agent during Biden’s time in the oval office.”

Yes, I think you are likely correct about the feelings of most BP agents. But this is a time for conviction and courage in the face of an anti-American, destructive and deeply corrupt U.S. government. They can show their true conviction and allay their torment by now refusing and defying Biden’s orders and siding with the states and the people. Now is their time of choice. Principle and morality over payoff and corrupt federal money.

“Obviously we cannot apply enough pressure to get Capitol Hill to pass anything meaningful until constitutional conservatives have control of both chambers.”

This part always cracks me up. Until DC is thoroughly flushed out, “We The People” will continue to get reamed by those deeply embedded in the bureaucracy.

We were told early on “A moral and upright people” for a very specific reason. Corruption has been reeeaaalll busy for as long as I can remember.

I readily admit that Abbott’s inaction (for the most part) and sometimes actions over the years has left a sour taste in many a Texans mouth, myself included having little good to say about the man. Somethings got Abbott motivated now. Gotta wonder what that may be.

Buckle up fellow Texans as this shindig isa fixin to git lively and too gud.

We’re fixing to play cowboys and liberals. This is the hill to die on. Time to saddle up.
