The Texas Rangers are waiting for you!
The issue does not seem to be the feds coming into Texas, as such. The disagreement is over where the border of Texas is.
Harry’s expressing the frustration that all control freaks do when those they think they have a right to control tell them that they will not obey.
Now, the Bureau of LoudMouths have suddenly decided that they're going to confiscate the land until Congress gets around to setting boundaries for dispute that no longer exists!
Like everyone is too stupid to realize the feral government has NO intention of giving it back once they get it.
I agree with Abbott. Come and Take It, suckers!
Texas Ping.
“I am about ready to go to the Red River and raise a ‘Come and Take It’ flag to tell the feds to stay out of Texas,” Abbott said.
You’re about ready? Then what will make you ready?

AG Abbott’s letter to the BLM
https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/oagnews/release.php?id=4718
Specific Questions that were asked:
Accordingly, I hereby request that you or your staff respond in writing to this
letter by providing the following information as soon as possible:
1. Please delineate with specificity each of the steps for the RMP/EIS process for
property along the Red River.
2. Please describe the procedural due process the BLM will afford to Texans whose
property may be claimed by the federal government.
3. Please confirm whether the BLM agrees that, from 1923 until the ratification
of the Red River Boundary Compact, the boundary between Texas and Oklahoma was
the gradient line of the south bank of the Red River. To the extent the BLM does
not agree, please provide legal analysis supporting the BLM’s position.
4. Please confirm whether the BLM still considers Congress’ ratification of the Red
River Boundary Compact as determinative of its interest in land along the Red River?
To the extent the BLM does not agree, please provide legal analysis supporting the
BLM’s new position.
5. Please delineate with specificity the amount of Texas territory that would be
impacted by the BLM’s decision to claim this private land as the property of the
federal government.

Good for him! Most folks wouldn’t have understood, “Molon Labe.”
You can tell that Abbot is running for reelection. Too bad we couldn’t dump him in the primary.
And where is Windy Davis?
Bet she is on the side of the feds.
If I was Abbot, I would have someone keep an eye on her.
