Border standoff between Texas, feds intensifies as governor defies Supreme Court ruling
pbs.org

This week, the Supreme Court sided with federal agents to remove razor wire put in place by Texas along the Rio Grande. The state is using wire and state agents to block Border Patrol from accessing a section of the border in Eagle Pass. Homeland Security is demanding access to the area by Friday, but Gov. Greg Abbott is doubling down. Laura Barrón-López discussed the dispute with Stephen Vladeck.

Send in the fucking troops. When racist fucks like these tried to stop kids from going to school, that's what worked.

Fucking inbreds.

The troops are already there -- the President can federalize the Texas National Guard and give us a look a what a modern-day Little Rock High School looks like. Garland should be seeking an arrest warrant against Abbott for insurrection, as well.

Garland wouldn't even look into Jan 6th until being shamed into it. God I wish we had a super hardcore attorney general right now.

garland is a worthless stooge.

Where is the racism here?

I still don’t see anything regarding race? Yes, it’s dangerous immigrating illegally.

It remains legal to seek asylum in the United States.

I wonder what it feels like to hate.

They're just people.

No different than you or I.

We are a nation of immigrants.

We all arrived in this manner.

Some of us have chosen to forget this fact.

Unless you are a Native American.

Are you?
