Texas vs. Fed. Govt.

[Lees]

The border problem in Texas is escalating into a major war between State and Federal Government. The Supreme Court declared that the Feds have the right to take down the razor wire barrier that Texas put up to help protect the invasion of immigrants. But Texas Governor Greg Abbott refuses to do so citing his duty to protect the Texas border. Because the Border Patrol is a Federal organization, they obey the Feds. Abbott called up the Texas National Guard and Texas DPS to protect the razor wire from being removed or cut.

In other words, because Biden and the Feds are not doing their job in protecting the Texas border which is also a U.S. border, Texas must do the job. But when Texas does the job, the Feds say stop.

So far, 25 other Republican Governors have supported Texas stance against the Federal Government. Abbott has invoked the same legal authority that the Southern States had in seceding from the Union in 1860-61. Because, just like then, the Federal Government has broken it's compact, it's agreement with the States. The Federal Government, the Biden administration, is refusing to protect the State of Texas border. And in so doing is refusing to protect the American border which places all States at risk.

Parallel this with 1860 and see how the 'slavery' issue was complicated. If this border problem explodes, what would be the cause? Immigration or State and Federal rights? The root problem is, the Biden administration not doing it's job. And it's willingly not doing it's job.

God bless Texas and Gregg Abbott.

Some Democrats are trying to pressure Biden into nationalizing the Texas national guard and take away Abbott's authority over them. But I don't think that is going to happen. Biden may try, but I don't think he would be successful.

First of all, many of the Border Patrol who are directly under Biden's authority, support what Abbott is doing. And they would not support such a move. Second, The Texas national guard is under Abbott's authority as governor.

It's true that the President does have the power to call up a states Guard, but only in emergency situations and only if the State governor approves. And Abbott would never approve. And, some of the supportive States for Abbott have even offered to send in their State Guard if Abbott needs them.

The very fact that the Federal govt. would be willing to try and call up troops to come against a State govt. should be a warning.

Here again, note the parallel to the War Between The States in 1860. The lower 7 Southern States seceded when Lincoln was voted in as President. Lincoln wanted every state within the Union to supply so many troops to go down and force those States back into the Union. The upper Southern States, which had not seceded, said no. You have no authority to do that. As a result, they seceded because of that and supported the Lower States.

Strange. Biden wants to protect Ukrainian border and the Gaza border. But purposefully neglect the U.S. Texas border.

I think some of the tension comes down to wanting to turn Texas blue. With the Democrats wanting the open border, to supply them with all their needs, they think these people will support the Democrats. The next step then would be to give them voting rights so they can vote for them.

I support Gov Abbott in what he is doing. I am only a couple of hours from the southern border here in Texas. What I find interesting is those who live no where near here support the open borders, then whine when busloads are dropped off in their sanctuary cities.

I agree. They know they can change the vote by changing the people. They wanted to do the same thing after the War Between The states. They wanted to give power and vote to the blacks in order to have a then 'Republican' voting block in the South.

The same, I believe, was the purpose of the 'immigration act of 1965' which gave preference to third world peoples by making sure they would be the majority of immigrants. And it is still in place today. Now the U.S. has what it wanted. A third world country. But as a third world country, she is losing her place of leadership and influence in the world.

Exactly right. Wait till these Mexican, and Central American immigrants start raping and murdering their sons and daughters. See how soon they sing the praises of 'diversity' then.

Oh my...NYC mayor wants NYC to be no longer a 'sanctuary city'. He doesn't want those immigrants to come to NYC. anymore. He says, we can't handle anymore.

Typical yankee response. The yankee doesn't care about the Southern border states that have been enduring this for years. The yankee doesn't know or care for anything until it affects him. As long as it affects just the South, well, who cares. It won't reach him. But then, it reaches him. And now it is 'all important'.

This is the two faced same yankees that the South endured during the War Between The States.

The border crisis is a product of the 'liberal democrat New England myth making'. They pretend immigration is a glorious thing and what America was built on. They pretend it all 'good' and 'patriotic'. Till their daughters are raped by the immigrants. Till their police are beat up by the immigrants. Till they no longer feel safe because of the immigrants. They live in the pretend world, till the pretend world bites em.

So, to all you silly liberal dems who are now disturbed by the border crisis, go ahead and vote for your liberal dems in the next election. Go ahead and vote for Biden because Trump is supposedly so 'evil' for America. Just quit your whining about your sanctuary cities no longer being able to be a sanctuary city. You wanted it, you got it. Now you can live with it, with them, just like you make the rest of America do.

God bless Texas and Gregg Abbott.

All these sanctuary cities need to put the pressure on Biden, not Abbott.

All these sanctuary cities need to put the pressure on Biden, not Abbott.

In theory, yes, but of course doing that is guaranteed to accomplish nothing.

And what would that "pressure" be? Warning him that those cities, the ones that always vote Democrat under all circumstances, will suddenly decide not to vote for Biden if he keeps up doing what he's done so far?

The 'pressure' is to see how stupid the Biden administration's stance is on immigration. And it is stupid.

And, yes, people will change the way they vote when they feel threatened. And they do feel threatened.

And a senile ole man does nothing to alleviate their fears. And he is senile.
