I have never seen a more lost in space group of people.

They don’t have a single clue what their actions are bringing
down on this nation.

Their kids, and even the kids of today who think they are
so woke, they are going to live the majority of their lives,
the ones that live through the imposition of what they have
caused, in an absolutely nightmarish reality.

God is close to withdrawing from this Earth as time runs
out. There will only be an evil presence here, except for
those who have accepted His Son, and they may not even be
here any longer, to protect them.

Can any of us imagine a world without God’s influence?

We will see Jesus in all His glory, and some folks will
never see Him again. The gnashing of teeth is not the
stuff of make believe. It should be a very sobering
thought to any of us.

David Chalian stated that “We normally think of” immigration as “just an issue for the right-wing echo chamber.” But now that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) has brought “the migrant issue and crisis to cities, to blue states and cities, that has changed the calculus” on the issue.

Get ready David Chalian - next plan is to send them to neighborhoods where 'journalists' live...

Just like liberals, its all bad faith dishonesty until its NIMBY and the crime, drugs, war, or whatever is at their front door.

And yet there were sooooo many people here on FR who dismissed it out of hand, saying that Abbott was just putting on a show, that it would never do anything, etc., etc.,. etc.

Now we have the same kind if not the same individuals here on FR whining about how Abbott isn’t instantly securing all of the border everywhere for all time. Most of them seem to be older folks - these people are the same ones who complain about us younger folks being impatient? Sheesh.

They were ending up in big cities before Abbott did anything.

Biden was flying them in at night.

“People just don’t want to accept someone in a position of “authority” would so brazenly lie”!

People in positions of “authority” lie all the time everyday!

It’s what KEEPS THEM IN POSITIONS OF AUTHORITY!

Yes; they were, but that didn’t make the news in any significant way.

But when Texas started shipping them out and stating that they were specifically sending them to “SANCTUARY CITIES” that made HEADLINE NEWS, an EVIL CONSERVATIVE was sending the “poor, hapless, innocent, IMMEGRANTS” ILLEGAL ALIENS to their oh so welcoming cities.

Shouldn’t the loving liberals have been ecstatic about that INSTEAD OF SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER?

For the election in November, the left is going to take the border issue and blame it on Trump and the Republicans. They have already started executing that plan and it is working.

I beleive Abbott is actuslly putting up the wall without congress too. Trying to finish what trump started. I hope he succeeds. In the past I had been a bit disappointed iwht Abbott, but lately he’s been really sticking it to the left- what other governor has had the guts to do that? Maybe desantis somewhat, but Abbott is really gett8ng the message across that our nation is under assault, and the liberals are enabling it.

He certainly isn’t perfect, but he’s done a better job than anyone else that was an option in recent memory.

Not quite in the same way as was originally planned, but a barrier is going up.

One thing to remember is that a lot of what Abbott is doing now was delayed waiting for legal opinions and such, as well as wargaming out scenarios. That’s why the Biden Admin hasn’t been able to shut him down like Obama did Arizona. They simply don’t have any leverage, no legal/criminal charge threat they can apply.
