For what it's worth, the feds are currently asking the supreme court to intervene. This is gonna be the biggest confrontation between a state and the federal government since... the 1960s?

Feds say Texas is blocking Border Patrol from a section of the border, ask U.S. Supreme Court to intervene
The Texas National Guard and state troopers have blocked U.S. Border Patrol agents from a 2.5-mile stretch of the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, preventing federal agents from patrolling that part of the border, according to a court filing by the U.S. Department of Justice, escalating the clash between state and federal authorities on the Texas-Mexico border.
On Wednesday night, troopers and National Guard members began to take “full control” of the 47-acre Shelby Park, erected concertina wire and fencing at the park to close off access to the public, Eagle Pass Mayor Rolando Salinas said. He added that he was told that the park would be closed indefinitely and the state took the action to prevent immigrants from illegally crossing into Texas.
State officers and National Guard members also have denied Border Patrol agents entry to the park, where agents routinely used a boat ramp to launch their boats to patrol the Rio Grande, the filing says. There is also a staging area at the park that Border Patrol agents use to inspect migrants who have been apprehended in this part of the border, the filing says.
In the filing, the DOJ is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene in an ongoing legal battle between the state and the federal government and overrule a 5th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that prevents Border Patrol agents from cutting the concertina wire Texas has strung along the Rio Grande.

I'm ok with mining the frick out of the northern bank of the Rio Grande. Throw in some claymores for good measure.

A classic example of FAFO

Why didn’t all the men crossing help them?

And, of course, out of the millions of fighting age males we see it is a woman and kids. How convenient. 
Just more unbelievable lies the lib white women will gobble up like it's the truth.

So the woman was responsible for the deaths of her children? She seems awful as a mom
Posted on 1/14/24 at 2:38 pm to Taketts
That sucks. She shouldn't have done that to her kids.

It didn’t take long to make up this “tragedy”, did it.

Being that a Guard Soldier drowned months ago trying to save a migrant, i do not believe for an instance that border patrol attempted that.

absence of bodies recovered looks like fed misinformation taking place
Posted on 1/14/24 at 5:15 pm to Taketts
And where are the stories of all the ones who’ve died and are missing the past 3 yrs?

Expect daily stunts by the hired help while texas stops the invasion.

I also heard some Border Patrol agents whipped them with horse whips right before they took off towards the river

Imagine if they obeyed the law and stayed in Mexico. Imagine…

State of Texas could make legislation to hold a session of the legislature at that park one time a year.
Texas could claim that they hold sessions of the legislative branch in that park, and this area is off limits to non legislative branch except a small area on the other end of the park for the public to watch the session.
