Mis Suegros drove to LA to apply for naturalization for my wife and her brothers.

I'm not sure I understand this sentence. Who drove to LA and why it was necessary to apply for you wife's naturalization?

How does Biden manage the optics and narrative in an election year ?

its about being "compassionate" as far as having an "open border" ? Its not "being American" by securing the border ?

why not just direct the illegal immigrants to go to the official border crossings and ask for asylum or amnesty there instead of trying to cross over in areas like where the razor wire is being installed ?

He's afraid to lose the left wing of the Demon Rat party. Hence the lax border policy and all the waffling and dithering on foreign policy matters.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – 25 Republican governors released the following joint statement in support of Texas Governor Greg Abbott and Texas’ constitutional right to self-defense.

The statement comes as the Biden Administration continues to attack Texas and refuses to take action or responsibility for the crisis at the Southern border.

“President Biden and his Administration have left Americans and our country completely vulnerable to unprecedented illegal immigration pouring across the Southern border. Instead of upholding the rule of law and securing the border, the Biden Administration has attacked and sued Texas for stepping up to protect American citizens from historic levels of illegal immigrants, deadly drugs like fentanyl, and terrorists entering our country.

“We stand in solidarity with our fellow Governor, Greg Abbott, and the State of Texas in utilizing every tool and strategy, including razor wire fences, to secure the border. We do it in part because the Biden Administration is refusing to enforce immigration laws already on the books and is illegally allowing mass parole across America of migrants who entered our country illegally.

“The authors of the U.S. Constitution made clear that in times like this, states have a right of self-defense, under Article 4, Section 4 and Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution. Because the Biden Administration has abdicated its constitutional compact duties to the states, Texas has every legal justification to protect the sovereignty of our states and our nation.”

Signatories include: Governor Kay Ivey (AL), Governor Mike Dunleavy (AK), Governor Sarah Sanders (AR), Governor Ron DeSantis (FL), Governor Brian Kemp (GA), Governor Brad Little (ID), Governor Eric Holcomb (IN), Governor Kim Reynolds (IA), Governor Jeff Landry (LA), Governor Tate Reeves (MS), Governor Mike Parson (MO), Governor Greg Gianforte (MT), Governor Jim Pillen (NE), Governor Joe Lombardo (NV), Governor Chris Sununu (NH), Governor Doug Burgum (ND), Governor Mike DeWine (OH), Governor Kevin Stitt (OK), Governor Henry McMaster (SC), Governor Kristi Noem (SD), Governor Bill Lee (TN), Governor Spencer Cox (UT), Governor Glenn Youngkin (VA), Governor Jim Justice (WV), and Governor Mark Gordon (WY).

The federal government's responsibility is to secure international borders. With Biden and the Democrats its about an open border as far as anarcho-tyranny and "fundamentally changing America".

It's not, but more importantly, why does anyone expect the Federal government to help them, ever? That's a bad bet. Also, how many Republicans voted to secure the border?

Texas should divert all Federal taxes to securing their border. And seize any federal assets within the state, again to sell or trade to help get more walls, and more money for Texas rangers and farmers to properly defend their land.

Suegros = parents in law. My wife was born in Mexico.

The Court only let the Feds take down the Wire, it didn't say Texas had to do it.



AND, it's not settled, this was just a temporary injunction.

Art IV, Sec 1, Clause 1
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.

And Biden strikes back!

(Which state has the most LNG exports?)

BREAKING IN WASHINGTON: President Biden pauses all pending approvals of liquefied natural gas exports, says climate change is real and must be tackled, cites wildfires, historic hurricanes and floods wiping homes.

I'm a little over 2 hours from Eagle Pass (damn this state is big!) and I'm sure may of the illegals are coming through San Antonio so good for us but it's a huge border and to me this is too little too late.

I think Adams is finally doing this publicity stunt because an election is coming up. He's a WEF guy. He should have done this 3 years ago and talked a lot of shit before the last election - then did almost nothing for 3 years basically except talk and toss around some shipping containers.

I wouldn't be surprised at all. But I do like how this incident shows the growing trend towards decentralization, and power moving away from DC.

That might not stop them at this point.

Got it.

PS. Good example why mixing languages rarely works as intended.

Finally, we're Alinskying them instead of being Alinsky'd.

SCOTUS only said - in a temporary ruling, not a permanent decision - the Biden Regime can remove the barriers - it didn't say Texas had to remove for them, or that Texas couldn't place barriers.

Put your opposition in a decision dilemma. Lay no-win Traps for them.

Biden either looks ridiculous by removing them, showing WEAKNESS on border stance, OR Biden does nothing, showing his WEAKNESS that he backed down from Texas.

This one is easy: from the Pentagon budget, just like when Trump repurposed a chunk of it for the construction of the wall.

Other states are sending their Nat Guard units to Texas to help. That's a lot of money.

Trump repurposed $16-18B iirc.

Word is that the Texas State Guard - not the National Guard - is also deployed. That is fully State Militia and not subject to Federal oversight. Also Rangers, State Police, etc. that can't be Federalized.

Some on the alternative sites are issuing tradecraft instructions to those who go to Texas for this stuff. No cell phones, no burners, no pads, travel with cash only, etc. etc. No vehicle with tracking devices that can be attributed to you, nothing that can place you in the proximity of shit going down so the FBI doesn't come knocking on your door to throw you into the DC Lubyanka.
