Unlike in Arizona where they elected a racist, open border Marxist Katy Hobbs to be their next governor, Texas has finally had enough of Biden’s open borders. Gov. Abbott has finally declared an “invasion” at the border, giving him historic constitutional powers to try and stop it. Also, expect Biden to fight this with his corrupt DOJ.
Frustrated by an unending crisis fueled by drug and human trafficking at the southern border, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Tuesday declared his state was under an invasion and invoked special powers granted under the U.S. and Texas constitutions.
Abbott’s decision came after three dozen counties in his state passed resolutions calling for the dramatic action. The Republican governor said the declaration allows him to send National Guard troops to the border, treat drug cartels as terrorist organization and to build his own border wall separate of the federal government,
“I invoked the Invasion Clauses of the U.S. & Texas Constitutions to fully authorize Texas to take unprecedented measures to defend our state against an invasion,” Abbott tweeted in his announcement. “I’m using that constitutional authority, & other authorization & Executive Orders to keep our state & country safe.”
Abbott previously garnered national headlines by busing thousands of illegal migrants to blue cities such as Chicago, New York and Washington D.C. But his new action Tuesday marked a major escalation that carries both political and legal consequences.
