Eagle Pass is today’s Fort Sumter. Biden must federalize the Texas National Guard.

The tree of liberty is looking a bit weather worn.

Judging by the clouds on the horizon, the drought is about to be ended.

Being from Indiana, I was surprised as well.

Not even close to being a “Fort Sumter”

The globalists / organized criminals want a civil war. Don't give it to them.

It's not a red state against blue state, or even average dem voter versus gop voter... it's the middle class against the uber wealthy who control this nation. Already, dems are waking up as their neighborhoods are being flooded with illegals, their give outs are being transferred to the invaders, their cities being gutted by the organized criminals in charge.

I suspect that Biden the stooge, the puppet, is being used to trigger internal strife. They can cut wires, and we can build walls. If the puppet goes Nero, then many more independents and even dems move to our side. Fifth Gen.

--- "Traben-Trarbach, Germany"

You're a lucky so-and-so. The whole of the Moselle and Weinstrase is special. I'd enjoyed hiking in the Pfalzwald nearby, and visited one or two too many wineries. I hope your time there was most special.

So many of the Germans I knew -- and still know courtesy of email and Skype -- have slowly been disabused of the state sponsored media and the likes of Spiegel. It is sad to think the Lefty hatred of Trump which has brought Germany to this place, with enormous rises in energy prices and the idiotic flood of "migrants" which is doublespeak for "invasion."

Personally and because of my affection for many Germans from both the old East and the West, now unified, I am saddened for what is coming for them. Courtesy of that "fundamental transformation" stuff. Schade. Wirklich schade.

Best wishes.

It's way beyond just wire now. I don't think the DOJ, Border Patrol or White House has an engineer battalion with heavy transport equipment, because that's what it will take to clear that place out with.

Leftist Will Bunch is thrilled by the prospect of dead people.

Should be ‘rebar’, putting razor wire on the closest private property.

It is not organized.

There are some who are, but they are small in number.

Many in the public sense what is happening. When the time comes they will do their part.

This is not about overthrowing a nation. It is about restoring the Constitution and dealing with those who seed to destroy the nation.

I"m not sure about the border patrol. Those guys know the real score about the border. They deal with cartels and criminal elements every day. They may end up supporting Texas.

I have heard news reports that some BP agents will disobey orders to remove the barriers. We shall see. I think it's possible that the Biden gang doesn't want the BP to be caught on film helping the invaders. I would guess Mayorkas would prefer a sneak attack at night.

I’m talking about the minutemen that patrolled the border. Most of them vets. During W’s term.

Not about the original overthrowing a nation

Articles about them weren’t allowed here, so maybe you didn’t hear of it

Texas State Guard is admin. They have almost no equipment and near nothing in terms of combat capabilities.

TX National Guard is there, and all through the border. We’re just on SAD orders and not anything federally funded.

The feds are trying to breach the town of Eagle Pass in order to betray the United States, not defending a fort in order to protect it. It’s the anti-Sumter.

Not that they need combat capability for this.

In any case, thanks for the clarification.
