But this love for Civil War and threatening other Americans is where I draw the line. It's feeding right into their plan. It will end up being. Jan 6th event and everyone that goes will regret it, because the politicians are just 'playing" outrage with no intent of doing a damn thing.


Jefferson Davis should have taken DC when he had the chance and we wouldn’t be in this mess. This corrupt, lawless federal government has overstepped its bounds one too many times. Refusing to defend the country against an invasion and obstructing border states’ right to defend themselves is malevolent and an absolute line in the sand.

The states created the federal government, not the other way around. Time for governors to remember that instead of being pushed around by this leviathan monster.

My only fear is that Abbott will back down if Biden sends more feds down there. He has every right, and the people of Texas have every right, to defend their state sovereignty and their welfare.

Like always, nothing will come of this. It is all political pandering. Same song, different year. Quit listening to idiot politicians long ago. They don't want border issues to end. They'd lose $$$ if that happened. Plus, outside of a few border towns, the illegals have zero effect on the average Texas citizen. Other than giving us more choices and bargaining power with our lawn guys. I never hear anyone at work, church, on the golf course, at the lake, deer lease, etc. complain or even talk about it.

Disagree, same complacency would've gotten us to the same place

Yep, if experience tells us anything is that Republicans will let us down but let's pray this is different
