It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I think that the AG should be issuing arrest warrants for everyone involved in the coordination of the illegal invasion.
Hopefully they’ll make the illegals change their own diapers. Gringo Federal employees shouldn’t be doing that.
Dang climate change. Gonna be 23 there next week for a couple days.
What will Texas do when, privately, Deep State tells Texas pols that Deep State will pull all federal funding from Texas unless Texas complies.
The fedgov will escalate this quickly. They have to. Expect insurrection charges.
This suggests that BP agents are acting under duress. If Congress is really serious about closing the border and addressing how this invasion is being facilitated, ignore Mayorkas for now, and start subpoenas at the bottom of the chain.
Ask them:
"What orders were you given?"
"Who gave them?"
"What contact have you had with parties outside the formal chain of command regarding your duties, including third parties such as NGOs, etc. Who are they?"
Keep working up the chain, watch who squeals. Jail any who prevaricate with contempt, 5th amendment excepted. In the case of the 5th amendment cases, who were their associations, because that and the prevaricators are potential leverage points.
They should be Indicting Federal Officials and serving Governor Warrants. If the President has NO IMMUNITY for official acts, neither do Federal Officials.
The Texas Guard needs to disarm the BEEPS of their bolt cutters they are using to destroy the concertina wire paid for by Texas taxpayers.
Good. The Feds have had years to enforce the law. Instead have acted illegally.
Another report, coming from different source:

...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...
The Biden admin position is that, because it is a federal crime to cross the border illegally, it can’t also be a state crime, ignoring the entire concept of double sovereignty used to prosecute people for federal crimes in the event of acquittal of state crime (and vice versa).
Taken to its logical extreme, it’s a federal crime to shoot an FBI agent or rob a bank. It’s also murder or armed robbery. By this stupid logic, the local police should let the murderer or robber run by because it’s a federal crime.
Be ready. They are going to have to set a strong example of some sort. Or other states will consider doing the same. Including northern states.
I need a Texas flag!
Abbott is way late on this.
This is what Civil War II looks like...it goes very slowly until it doesn’t. The Feds have WAAAAYYYYY to much power and states are far too afraid of losing $$$ to do the right thing.
GREAT.
Thereafter, the Biden Administration announced that the Border Patrol was in open rebellion in what amounts to insurrection.
"Given their insubordination and refusal to follow our unlawful orders we are ordering the agency disbanded, quoted one "high ranking" anonymous source. Their duties will be given to the Department of Labor to ensure the speedy issuance of work permits and other entailments.
"Congress has failed to address the immigration issue so the administration has decided, through executive order, to do whatever we want"./s
"We dare the GOP to do anything about it".
OMG! The Cancel Culture Clubbers will be cancelling it and moving it to somewhere in Colorado or Lost Wages. I didn’t know it was coming to Texas. The panic should start in 4...3...2...1
