The Biden Administration has dealt a devastating blow to America by opening up the southern border to all comers. The influx of illegals threatens our national security and our economy, and it has placed an intolerable burden on the border states. How intolerable, is demonstrated by the panic that seizes blue cities when they are faced with a tiny fraction of the burden suffered by communities near the open border.
Joe Biden’s border policy is unconstitutional. Under Article II, his most fundamental duty as president is to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Biden has not faithfully executed our immigration laws; rather, he has deliberately sabotaged and negated them.

Whoever's hand is manipulating sock-puppet Joe's mouth better think more than twice. This thing can escalate. Joe says us lowly serfs may have rifles, but he has F-16s. Yo, Joe - so does the Texas Air National Guard. You think those Texas men and women flying those planes will be willing to mass-murder their fellow Texans on your orders? Again, better think twice. They may decide to protect their fellow Texans. Joe, you may be starting something you won't be able to stop. Not that you have much of a brain left to understand what's going on . . . You were dumber than dirt on your best days, and those days are decades behind you. If dirt can get even dumber, that's where you are, dude.

Column reminds us that it was the states that created the federal government to (among other authorities granted) "provide for the common defense" of the Union. Neither the President nor the Supreme Court are in charge of business and operations in the State of Texas - the governor is. If illegals want to enter the country they're free to travel west to Nuevo Mexico.

diapers is giving the repubs in the House every reason, and then some, to impeach his unworthy "you know what" and
- send him off to Leavenworth where they would, hopefully, use him as a target for the firing squad practice

Traitor Joe is WRONG, and shirking his plain duty to "faithfully enforce the laws".
Abbott is right to defend against an invasion. We should send other state National Guards to help him and his Guard.
Right is right, and JOE is wrong.

though 25 states Governors have signed on in a support letter, the mind boggles that neither Arizona nor New Mexico have.
Imagine the pressures and phone calls those two governors are under right now....from both sides.
Currently it is a 50/50 state split...with even ONE more Governor it forces the Media to cover "Majority of America supports Texas"
NY has sent homeless people on "Free flights" to Hawaii...who then sends them back to the mainland, on "free flights", in fact if anyone arrives in Hawaii and does not have lodging pre arranged, they are subject to immediate arrest and deportation. Biden isn't threatening Hawaii for this.

Texas has the Constitution on their side.
Biden is ignoring the Constitution, as usual.

It's time to accept the fact that Joe Biden does not work in the best interests of the American people and act accordingly. Instead of enjoying a better life, illegal immigrants are going to get caught in the middle of a war.

Joe can’t help himself. Everything he does creates a problem. What’s worse is that the whole left community goes along with it. All dem politicians and all the left media are fully behind Joe. The left diaspora is the problem in this country.

While I hate to see what is happening with The Constitutional Crisis that Joe Biden created, a stand needs to be taken. We can no longer as Americans wait for the battle to be joined. Biden has gone far too afield to ignore this issue. He is corrupt and lawless. He and his party believe they are the law and the rest of us are subject to their interpretation.
If this crisis comes to a physical head, it would be be a joy to see the Border Patrol refuse to follow Biden’s orders but I doubt that will happen. The time for self-sacrifice is over. However, the salary and pensions will most likely prevent any acts of courage and integrity. Nevertheless, the optics just may get the point across if the truth can be told through the lying media lens. We must stand for something. It is our right as Americans to have a secure border and our sovereignty protected. A President who will not do that is unfit for office and should be severely punished for his unwillingness to follow the Constitution and immigration laws already on the books.
Wouldn’t you like to win this one? I am sick and tired of losing to these anti-American zealots who believe they are better than the rest of us.

Per 1 I have identified the nature of Joe's brain. Dirt can get dumber...it's called worm castings.

I'm glad Governor Abbott has done something, but why did it take him over 3 years to do it? I cannot forget the sight of The Moron with that huge stack of EO's he was signing on the first day of his pResidency that was going to disintegrate everything good President Trump had done for this country.

Remember the truckers who took over Ottawa, Canada? A convoy to our southern border is being organized and everyone is invited to join in. It starts on January 29 with an arrival date of February 3 at three of the main entry points. This could be the showdown that we’re talking about.
