Texas repeals immigration order that caused border gridlock

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Friday repealed his traffic-clogging immigration order that backed up commercial trucks at the U.S.-Mexico border after a week of intensifying backlash and fears of deepening economic losses.

Pressure was building on Abbott to retreat as gridlock at the border worsened and frustration mounted. The American Trucking Assn. called the inspections “wholly flawed, redundant and adding considerable weight on an already strained supply chain.”

Abbott, who is up for reelection in November and has made the border his top issue, fully lifted the inspections after reaching agreements with neighboring Mexican states that he says outline new commitments to border security. The last one was signed Friday with the governor of Tamaulipas, who this week said the inspections were overzealous and created havoc.’

Intensifying backlash.

That is fucking hilarious.

Abbot had to stop being a dick, imagine that.....

Intensifying backlash.

That is fucking hilarious.

I wish your land was full of illegal rapists and murderers you fucking sob

Trigger much?

 

[Anathema]

Things like rescinding this order are why many actual Conservative will never vote for him in the national level. He has no intestinal fortitude and won’t actually carry through on important decisions.

Trigger much?

If one of your GD loved ones overdoses, you'll understand.................You widget makers are so dumb

If one of YOUR GD loved one's overdoses, it is fully and wholly upon YOU, stupid fucktard. The alleged 'loved' one is you're responsibility and maybe you should do some kind of intervention before they die?

What an absolute waste of skin you are.

$240MM in food wasted.

Restaurants suffer food shortages before Abbott repealed border policy

Fruit King in Corpus Christi said they are experiencing bell pepper shortages this week and Coral Bean Cafe said oranges are hard to come by.

In McAllen, Gov. Greg Abbott’s border inspections meant late deliveries, rotten produce and lost business

Every day at the terminal, where hundreds of trucks pass through to drop off tons of Mexican-grown goods, the fruits and vegetables that have gone bad are picked out and thrown away.

So did Tater start to rebuild the wall or is reverse the only gear on Wheels's chair? Pandering POS. I knew he would cave to the Chamber of Commerce types.

Oh but he has sent about 120 "immigrants" to DC.....Who were promptly picked-up by relatives/friends mostly from here in Virginia.....They did seem thankful for the ride though.

Fuckin' texans are so retarded, they could have had West to run against Beto.

That Abbott is too smert for his own good.

 

[Zincwarrior]

There will be repurcussions. He is losing the business community with his antics.

fully lifted the inspections after reaching agreements with neighboring Mexican states that he says outline new commitments to border security.

Read past that fact, eh?

It's not a fact till it happens......That and a US Governor can't make a pact with a foreign entity as it regards immigration matters.

Excellent post.

 

[1srelluc]

Excellent post.

He can't even make a pact as it regards border security either. I guess if it's not on paper then it would be OK but there's nothing compelling the Mexicans he treated with hold up their end.

 

[toobfreak]

Abbott . . . reaching agreements with neighboring Mexican states that he says outline new commitments to border security. Reckless, irresponsible political theater.

Quite the opposite. Unlike you democrats who don't change course no matter what, Abbott saw that:

1. It was to his advantage to remove the restrictions now.
2. His restrictions had in part, accomplished their intended goal. Out of them came a new agreement for Mexico to get more involved and proactive on their side! Brilliant.

Hardly political theater, much less irresponsible and reckless! This one man has accomplished more in a week than the entire Biddum Admin has gotten done in a YEAR.

It's smoke to cover the colossal fuck up of what occurred.

He fucked with business, in Texas. That will get you run out on a rail here.

Abbott caved in again.

Another win for the good guys.

Abbott didn't do dat the feds did, Mexico agreed to put up strategic checkpoints on the border. I am sure there was money involved.
