To be an invasion wouldn’t it have to be a swarm of tens of thousands of foreigners crossing the border illegally, many of military age, representing countries with large terrorist contingents and violent drug gangs who have no desire to follow the laws on immigration?
Oh, wait, now I get it.
Go, Texas!👍
The drug thing is the key to proclaiming invasion. The Progs will claim peaceful migrant families are not an invasion. ( Aside; though they claimed unarmed protestors were an insurrection). But Abbott can claim with justification that the cartels are inundating the country with drugs, most particularly fentanyl. Fentanyl is deadly. It has killed hundred thousand Americans. It has come here as a result of open border, the existence of the cartels, and likely action by unfriendly state actors. That is invasion by chemical attack and Texas has a Constitutional right and obligation to repel that invasion.
