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.

Eric Holder says

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

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

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.

Yet Biden can't for Ukey Fluffer money?

In an interview from India, Gov. Greg Abbott says ten other states have sent national guard to the Texas border, and others will follow. Abbott says he is “prepared” for a conflict with federal authorities.

It was helpful to hear directly from Governor Abbott, who seems uncharacteristically fired-up. He pointed out that on March 5th, a new Texas law takes effect allowing any law enforcement officer in Texas to arrest people who illegally cross the border, teeing up a whole new conflict with the feds. Abbott reported that ten states so far have sent National Guard or other law enforcement to help. He also vowed to continue clamping down the border until January 20th of next year, when a new president is sworn in, and this thing can be fixed for good.

The Democrats are trying to jump-start a narrative alleging Republicans and red states are “defying the law” and are therefore “anti-democratic” insurrectionists. Expect to see Biden propose a series of unworkable “compromises” before claiming that Republicans are unreasonable and it’s all their fault. ...

Uh huh. The truth is, the border crisis began when Biden revoked three Trump-era executive orders. If he wanted to, Biden could solve the border crisis in five minutes just by re-issuing those orders or combining them into a single order if that would be more convenient. He doesn’t need Republicans.

So far, despite democrats’ best efforts, the border continues to be a losing issue for Biden. You can tell because the New York Times’ website this morning didn’t include any border story, not even about Greg Abbott’s Defiance. Same for the Wall Street Journal, which managed to cram a story about the $83 million Carroll verdict onto its home page but reported nothing about the border crisis. The top story on the Washington Post’s site is something about Trump’s future plan for economic war with China — and nothing about the border.
