ANALYSIS โ As Joe Biden intentionally fails to do his constitutional duty to protect our borders, and Texas becomes ground zero for a crushing wave of illegal migrants some have likened to an invasion, Texas Governor Greg Abbott is filling the breach.
โThe federal government has neglected its primary and constitutionally assigned responsibility to its citizens โ protecting them. Texas has no choice but to lead,โ read a November statement from Texas Public Policy Foundation,ย reportedย by the Texas Tribune.
The governor has now sent overย more than 400 Texas National Guard personnelย to El Paso on Monday โas part of the Governor's enhanced border security effort,โ according to a statement.
Beginning Monday night, the National Guard along with Texas state troopers deployed about 1,000 yards of razor wire to block one of the most popular crossing points between Mexico and this border city.
The Texas forces have also positioned Humvees and Texas Department of Public Safety patrol vehicles on the banks of the river to close off access.
Earlier this month, a mob of more than 1,000 migrants crossed in just a four-hour period.
The Texas Tribuneย reported:
Before National Guard and state troopers deployed to the river Monday night, hundreds of migrants had crossed and formed a line against the steel fence on the U.S. side, waiting for Border Patrol agents to apprehend and process them. Many have been released into the city after processing, which has filled El Paso's shelters and forced the city to repurpose various facilities to use as shelters.
Meanwhile, Gov.ย Greg Abbottย demanded Tuesday that the Biden administration โimmediately deploy federal assetsโ to El Paso and other border cities ahead of the arctic weather.
All this is happening as the Supreme Court has temporarily blocked Biden's attempt to end Title 42 which allows for expedited expulsion of migrants to prevent the spread of COVID.
Texas was one of the 19 red states that asked a federal court to keep Title 42 in place beyond Wednesday. On Monday, they asked the U.S. Supreme Court to stop the policy's scheduled lifting.
Texas Attorney Generalย Ken Paxtonย vowed to continue to fight to keep Title 42. Heย tweetedย Monday after the court's decision: โThe fight to keep Title 42 in place continues. I will continue to do everything I can in court to ensure our border is secure.โ
These recent moves also follow the governor's increased use of the term โinvasion' to refer to the current uncontrolled wave of illegal migration surging into his state.ย ALD

OBiden should be impeached and not for just the lack of protecting our border, but for several of the other offenses against this country. The sad part is that OBiden has done more harm to this country than President Trump could even imagine and nothing is really being done to get rid of the cancer!
And the GOP just keeps collecting $$ with little positive action..
Wait until after Jan 3 when Republicans control the House finally – plans are already set to investigate, indict, overturn legislation and more. If only voters had given the Senate a majority of Republicans also.
They did, but thanks to d o m i n i o n with no one being held accountable or any changes since 2020, the crimes will continue. Look what happened to Keri Lake with all the evidence she had and a dumb as paid off judge that needs to be very close to some rope and a tree for not doing his job
It
s time you illegals go back to where you came from. Change your government you have an army. It shows. If it was just amnesty you can do that in Mexico. Sorry were full up we have to help feed house teach your children and give you free medical. We can
t afford you nor do we have enough jobs for unskilled workers. Go home there are 22 million ahead of you.Thanks, need more buses to ship to NE area
When does it end? When we put troops on the line, locked and loaded and ready to kill. Do that and this stops tomorrow. I can guaranty that!!!
WE HAVE AN OLD MAN IN THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE LAND THAT NOT ONLY SUFFERS FROM SENILITY BUT LACKS THE COURAGE OF REAL LEDERSHIP .BIDEN IS NOT ONLY A VERY LOW IQ PARTISAN THAT MAKES ALL HIS DECISIONS ON UNBALANCED LEFT POLITICS HE TAKES NO COST OR AMERICAN VALUES AND ATTACKS ON THE VERY POLICYS THAT AMERICA WAS FOUNDED ON IT’S NOW OBIVIOUS HIS REAL LOYALITIES ARE WITH CHINA AND HIS CHINA FIRST POLICIES…….WHO THEY HAVE RECEIVED MUCH MONEY FRIM FOR WHAT???
The Democratic socialist/Obamy Marxist pRTY IS DESPERATE TO GET AS MANY ILLEGALS ACROSS THE BORDER AS POSSIBLE AND GIVE THWM Amnesty and the vote to keep them in power forever.
Illegals risk freezing to death? Any dead, frozen illegal bodies should be loaded up, shipped to D.C., and dumped on the White House, Congress, and Senate grounds.
Let Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and the rest of the open border crowd take care of their frozen corpses.
Gov. Abbot is a treasure ! McCarthy addressed this similar non-American type action by the Democrats in his address to the House in which few Democrats showed up for business regarding the new Omnibus Bill that leaves America deeper than ever before in debt with no protection from this invasion. All border governors must stand like Abbot to protect Americans from this onslaught and wasteful spending.
Everything Biden and his people are doing, including doing nothing, is to ensure 2 million โimmigrants and refugeesโ get in each year. Biden started saying it in 2019.
1) AP: Immigration conference in Des Moines, IA, Aug 2019.ย Biden said the US can โafford to PAY (my caps) for 2 million immigrants and refugees a year.โ
2) After the election, Biden was asked about immigrants. He said, โTell them help is on the way.โ
3) Throughout 2020, Kackala Harris stated about a dozen times that our southern border should look just like crossing a state line in the US.
4) Biden promised he would stop the border wall – and did.
5) Wa Po, Dec 22, 2020. Biden reaffirmed his intention to bring in 2 million. Biden said heโll reverse Trump immigration policies. Biden said on day one as President he will โcarve a path on immigration policy for asylum in the United States to desperate asylum seekers. We could AFFORD (my caps) to take in a heartbeat another two million.โ
