Video: Texas Troops Spring Into Action After Illegal Immigrants Plant Foreign Flag on US Soil
Western Journal ^ | September 25, 2023 | George C. Upper III

Posted on 09/25/2023 5:06:29 PM PDT by lowbridge

As the porous border near Eagle Pass, Texas, continues to see huge numbers of illegal immigrants pass over it, one group decided to claim part of Texas in the name of the nation they had presumably escaped from.

Lt. Chris Olivarez, a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety’s South Texas Region, noted that many of the immigrants hailed from Venezuela, although the flag they planted on an Island with the borders of Texas appeared to be Columbian.

Wherever it happened to come from, members of the DPS’ Tactical Marine Unit wasn’t going to let it remain planted on American soil.

“The #EaglePass area continues to experience an influx of illegal immigrants – the majority from Venezuela,” Olivarez wrote in a post to X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. “Some decided to claim a #Texas island by placing a foreign flag – that was quickly taken care of by our DPS Tactical Marine Unit.”

Olivarez posted video of the team removing the flag.

If Abbot would do more than just put on a show, the Texas Guard would be stopping them at the border.

Still think these invading bass turds are just a bunch of poor wittle, assylum-seeking, wefugeez? This is an act of war. This is an invading Army. You can’t be seeking “assylum” from Venezuela and plant their flag here when you show up to start collecting free stuff from the gringos. More single digit I.Q. pieces of meat with two eyes.

Bad news for the creeps in the White Hut. These bass turds aren’t coming here “seeking assylum”. If you think they are, you’re doing too many recreational drugs. This is an invading army coming to bring down America.

Venezuela pretty much emptied their prisons of military age males, took them to the Colombia border and told them to head north and not come back. Colombia then facilitated their transfer to the Darien Gap where US Government Operatives helped them to get through Panama and into Costa Rica. They processed 86,000 people through the Darien Gap alone, last month.

Do a search for Michael Yon's most recent videos if you want on the scene reportage of what is going on in with the invasion via central America and Mexico.

Kill every POS invading this country... then wipe out Mexico and make it a prison camp for all the illegals to be exported.

Don’t know why it took so many to down on flag.

Two guys, one with a pint of kerosine and sheet of newspaper would take about 30 seconds.

Then again it would be good practice to go for it with a M240.

..........aren’t we already there?

I haven’t counted but there are, seemingly, hundreds of people shooting other people every day across America.

No Americans bother to even protest the two yearsof killing the USA. No one protested the J6 prisoners of war swept up in a setup.

You do, or should, realize the “border “ is a Federal border
Our Texas Guard can not use force to stop them.
Texas is using what means it can But Biden National Guard cuts the razor wire and puts up ladders to help illegals.

You need to do some research and educate yourself.
The border is Federally controlled.

If the Federal Government abdicates its responsibility to protect the US from invasion, the states have the authority to act.

It's an integral part of Federalism that the states are supposed to step up to the plate when the Feds act unlawfully as the current regime is doing.

But we don't have any state politicians who seem capable of doing so.

Lol
As you know the Federal Government is creating and controlling the conditions on the border from Ca through Texas
Only a Fool would think a State could forcibly stop illegals without Biden et al stopping the state
