Gov. Abbott pledges to finish Trump’s border wall and use state troopers to arrest migrants. If they don’t stop this soon, they’ll soon be having the Battle of the Alamo again.
Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday said Texas state troopers will now begin arresting migrants crossing the southern border — a move that immigration experts say is legally dubious — and that the state will also pick up where former President Donald Trump left off building the border wall.
“Long term, only Congress and the president can fix our broken border. But in the meantime, Texas is going to do everything possible, including beginning to make arrests, to keep our communities safe,” Abbott said at an event billed as a border security summit in Del Rio. “We are going to do everything we can to secure the border and it begins immediately.”

If Florida bordered Mexico, I bet we'd be doing the same thing.

Although Mexico's war of independence pushed out Spain in 1821, Texas did not remain a Mexican possession for long. It became its own country, called the Republic of Texas, from 1836 until it agreed to join the United States in 1845. Sixteen years later, it seceded along with 10 other states to form the Confederacy.
Is it time Texas left the Union and leave Washington DC to the WOKE FOLK!
Sounds like a solid idea to me. Take all the other hick, fly over and red neck states too. Then the "woke" states can see what they can do for themselves.
Isn't this what Sheriff Joe was doing in Arizona, and the ACLU sued and the Supreme Court stopped him?
Gov Abbott see and gets what a true cluster Riden has made of this whole thing. If anyone believe that Slo JoHo is in charge, check out Tucker Carlson's show and you will see one of those in charge sitting in the Presidential Chair on Air Force One.

As for the other, Rice is lurking in the shadows waiting for her next orders from barky. When he can get out of the bath house
