So, is Abbot, Governor of TX, doing the right thing at the southern border? (poll)

[1miseryindex]

are you trying to tell me its not the job of POTUS to secure the borders??

That's his # 1 job

But you just can't tell him anything... I think his ice cream is spiked

Or maybe it's just simple dementia

And people knew about the mental issues years ago but propped his ass up anyway and now we have literally had all hell break loose..

Can you cite that law or is it just common understanding and interpretation?
Mind you, I think the borders should be closed to migrants, except through official portals, also and with known targeted numbers.

If you consider illegal immigration as an "invasion", then it's the President's duty to protect the country from it.


"WASHINGTON, DC—Today, Congressman Jodey Arrington (TX-19) introduced a resolution affirming Article I Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution, which recognizes states’ sovereign power to defend themselves against invasion. In response to President Biden’s open-border policies, the federal government’s failure to respond, and the subsequent opportunism by the cartels, Rep. Arrington implores southern border states to use their constitutional power to defend themselves against the cartel-facilitated invasions and protect their citizens.

“The Constitution is clear: Section IV Article 4 says the federal government “shall protect each of [the states] against Invasion,” said Rep. Arrington. “When the federal government fails to fulfill this constitutional duty, Article 1 Section 10 expressly guarantees states the sovereign power to repel an invasion and defend their citizenry from overwhelming and “imminent danger.” This resolution affirms that states don’t have to be passive victims of this Administration’s border security failures; rather, they should exercise their sovereign, constitutional right to defend themselves and their citizens.”

“No ifs, ands or buts—the Biden Administration is failing to secure our southern border,” said Rep. Brian Babin (TX-36). “The Constitution says clearly that states have the power and right to step in and defend themselves when the federal government won’t do so. I’m proud to support Rep. Arrington’s resolution that will finally take power away from the deadly cartels and put it back into the hands of American citizens as we fight in the war for our safety and sovereignty.”

“The Biden administration abandoned its duty to the rule of law, our national boundaries and Americans’ security,” said Rep. Jim Banks, Republican Study Committee Ranking Member. “It’s negligence, and states have a duty to protect their residents if the White House won’t."

“Drug cartels’ vicious attacks and trafficking at our southern border continue to undermine the stability of Texas and, most importantly, the safety of our citizens,” said Texas State Senator Charles Perry. “I’ve drafted a resolution encouraging state agencies to use their resources to repel the drug cartel invasion, including those of the Texas Military Department as allowed by the U.S. Constitution. I want to thank Congressman Arrington for his efforts to address this very important issue at the federal level.""

Something to memorize

Article I Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution, which recognizes states’ sovereign power to defend themselves against invasion

No, but whether there is a law that interprets it the way you think is a completely different matter. I would advise, not thinking in terms of politics, but in terms of the law, otherwise possibly falling victim to the law, as actual Republican lawyers have been for years now.

For the record, I don't approve of his border policy any more than you do.

There comes a time when the people have to say enough is enough.

It is Crystal Clear what they are doing by not Honoring our laws at the border.

Arrington Fights to Safeguard States’ Rights to Defend Against Border Invasion

The first half of your first sentence is what this is all about and the nut to cut, before you can actually affect any action against him for it, ie, "If you consider illegal immigration as an "invasion". If it makes you feel better, I suspect Abbott would and probably has considered it and called it an "invasion". Whether that meets a legal standard, is the problem.

I do consider illegal immigration an invasion.

Oh, well in that case go ahead. I do doubt it will fly. Opponents may cheat, and actually use "the law". Do what you think best, by all means. I'm just saying Republican lawyers (particularly in political questions or things they wish were political questions), simply do not do well with actual law.

No need to be mad at me. I wasn't in anyway involved in the Bill or Hillary Clinton things or the 62 post 2020 election cases, nor Trump's lawsuits on slander/liable regarding rape allegations, or the FOX NEWS vs Dominion case. How these came out, is a matter of record.

Is Abbot, Governor of TX, doing the right thing?

This link is a disappointment because it doesn't address the latest that's happened, where Abbott took control of a park near the border (and other places?) in defiance of the federal govt. But you can get that info from Politics

You know of course that God tried to kill Abbott with a falling tree limb. Being the underachiever that God is, he only managed to cripple him. It made Abbott bitter

 

[Arlette]

he needs to add arresting border partol agents facilitating human smuggling of minors and sex slaves,,,

The cripple Abbott will not STAND for this

 

[Lord Long Rod]

Abbott is doing all he can do. Immigration falls within the preemption doctrine. He may lose the legal fights,

It is patently unfair to make the border states bear the brunt of this illegal immigration debacle.

 

[merrill]

Abbott and most elected officials in Texas are racist, arrogant and dumb as hell. So so many employers in the USA need employees. I would rather have immigrants working, paying their own way and generating tax revenue than having my tax tax dollars being spent covering the cost of incarcerating them ................

These people are running away from dictators and want to work .............
