Gov. Abbott Deploys Texas National Guard, State Troopers to Counter Biden’s ‘Open Border Policies’
Breitbart ^ | 6 Mar 2021 | BOB PRICE

Posted on 03/06/2021 8:49:21 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced the deployment of the state’s National Guard and State Troopers to respond to the growing border crisis.

Governor Abbott announced Operation Lone Star “to combat the smuggling of people and drugs into Texas” on Saturday. The operation will integrate the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) with the National Guard, Abbott said. He is ordering the deployment of air, ground, marine, and tactical border security assets to high threat areas.

“The crisis at our southern border continues to escalate because of Biden Administration policies that refuse to secure the border and invite illegal immigration,” the governor said in a written statement Saturday evening. “Texas supports legal immigration but will not be an accomplice to the open border policies that cause, rather than prevent, a humanitarian crisis in our state and endanger the lives of Texans. We will surge the resources and law enforcement personnel needed to confront this crisis.”

As usual, very simple solution....

Funnel them to New Mexico and/or California or let them in and then transport them to Denver, Seattle, Portland

Bus them to the front gates of Congress and The White Basement.

Let Nanzi set up a tent city within the Compound.

BiXiden on the back lawn.

I wish Texas would extend their border to the pacific ocean.
Take a hundred mile wide strip.
Take volunteers from across the country to enforce it.

You forgot Arizona. This is another reason for the people of AZ to remember that their government rigged the election and sent the wrong senator to D.C.

Exactly what the border States should do, put them on busses and drop them off at the Capital building. Maybe give them AOC’s address too.

At the recent Fort Worth gun show, I bought some coffee from the Whiskey Morning Coffee Company, located in Tolar, about 75 miles west of Dallas.

My favorite is the Texian Army Brew, a bit bolder than what I usually drink, but the flavor is great, the aroma fills the kitchen.

I doubt it goes well with popcorn, though...lol.

Good move, would like to see more use of the 10th Amendment by numerous states.

We have been here before but the last time the troops had no bullets and just sat around. What good did that do?

Hope they have some enforcement teeth this time.
