Gov. Greg Abbott Says Texas Will Build A Wall Because Biden’s Border Crisis ‘Is No Laughing Matter’

I don't have to imagine it. The posts are right in this thread.

Trump failed, and now Abbott has to convince his followers that he's going to do what Trump failed to do. I wish him well.
So do I.
 
No objection of a State building a fence. Wonder how many years it will take.

I've always had the opinion that border security and illegal immigration should be a shared responsibility between the Feds and States
Fortunately, your opinion is just that...
 
It takes money to build a wall. Trump didn’t control the purse strings. Trying to redirect some of the money he did have was opposed. The SC eventually sided with him. This is what you call having to deal with obstacles. Do you want to blame him for the obstacles as well?

OK, all together now: WHO’S GONNA PAY FOT THAT WALL? (Holding hand to ears...)

 
Smart use of tax dollars

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott vowed that his state would begin constructing a border wall to curb President Joe Biden’s raging border crisis and surges in illegal contraband.
Abbott made the announcement during a Border Security Summit on Thursday in Del Rio, where he addressed state law enforcement, landowners, and elected officials and promised to take action.

Correction...Texas tax dollars.

If Texans had a choice between a reliable power grid that didn't gouge consumers....or wall at the border....which do you think they'd choose?

The wall, of course.

Lacking full support from Congress no one believed that would actually happen. But he did have a plan to make them pay.

Oh I’m sure it was right there next to his beautiful healthcare plan that was gonna cover everyone and cost less, and where he was keeping all that stuff his “top people” were finding on Obama’s secret birth certificate that we all weren’t gonna believe, right?

It would be nice if you could focus on one thing at a time. Oh well.
 
and do WHAT with them?
Just a joke, commenting on how we have demonized one group of illegals and not another. I would be happy to be proved wrong, but I don't know if Trump ever mentioned visa-overstayers in his attacks on the undocumented.

The GOP legislators let him skate, twice, on corruption charges. He could always force them to defend him, but it is true that they weren't much interested in helping him govern.

What corruption charges would that be? The two impeachments? The first was based on nothing but democrats pushing a phony narrative that Trump withheld financial aid to Ukraine unless Dopey Joe's crack cocaine addicted son was investigated. They developed a phony whistleblower and no direct witnesses. The Senate determined that there was no evidence to prove the corruption charge. Case closed. If the republicans retake the House in the 2022 midterms, they will actually have clear evidence that Dopey Joe held up loan guarantees to get a Ukrainian prosecutor fired, if they want to impeach Dopey Joe. They would have a much better case then you think the democrats had against Trump.

On the second impeachment, again it was based on a democrat party narrative...or if you will, accusation only. They claimed his speech as evidence, despite the fact that the January 6 riot was planned and organized at least a week in advance of Trump's speech according to the Capitol Police and the FBI. Unlike the House, the Senate, when run by adults will not convict based solely on a narrative. They want actual evidence. On that note, there is the Antifa/BLM activist caught participating in the riot, videotaping it and instigating the violence. The most likely scenario was that antifa/blm instigated the riot and the Trump supporters who were caught up in it were just useful idiots for the left.
 
I'm okay with the right thinking Biden wrecked their MAGA.


How so? 452 miles of wall was built that Dopey Joe will not likely attempt to tear down. And now it appears that Texas will finish the wall. God Bless Texas.
 
1. Mexico was supposed to pay for it.
2. Mr. Art of the Deal couldn't get it past Congress.

What history are you referring to?
Not even members in his own party supported the expense of building a wall.


Mr. Art of the Deal couldn't get his own party on board w/ the project until
after the Democrats gained control of the House.

Mr. Art of the Deal waited until getting border wall legislation through Congress was it's most difficult
before he began using his presidency to push for it.

Mr. Art of the Deal does NOT want a border wall anymore than the rest of the GOP want a border wall.

They are fooling folks into staying mad.

The GOP will not actually support a border wall for real until their actual, real donors do.

Has TX figgered out to take all that land from private American land owners yet?

It will appear a lot more like TX is going "finish" some wall after they have a plan to take Americans' land away from them.

Are you a property owner or a renter? If you are a property owner, you don't need an answer. Ever heard of easements? And let's be honest. It's the land owners at the border that are demanding the wall. They are piss angry at illegal immigrants, coyotes, and cartels tramping over their property and in many cases vandalizing it.

Since everyone on the border is in favor of it,
Why did folks sue to keep their land?

It's very confusing for these folks to sue to keep their land
when they actually want to give up their land to the government.

Can you explain why people who want to give up their land are suing to keep their land?

I support him doing this. But I think illegal alien testicle lickers will sue to stop him.

Wonder why that would be? Why not help them enter our country legally? I’m tired of everyone else being more important than me and my family

Since you failed to provide a link, I will not take your post seriously. Some suing does not translate to all suing or the majority suing.
 
Red states having to clean up after Xiden again is starting to get routine

That post needs a skirt and pom poms.

That is true.

But the suing has to be dealt with.
Previously, folks were suing the US govt.

IF TX starts on this, they will sue TX.

The completion of the wall will look more likely when TX has a plan to take away Americans' land
 
Top THAT, DeSantis.

lol, DeSantis has already been "chosen" by the powers that be, and the radical MAGA base vastly prefers him over Abbot. Abbot's just trying to get re-elected in 2022, but the doofus is fully aware he's never going to be the GOP nominee in 2024.
