UPDATE: Days after I finished writing the article below… the Texas Governor is continuing to stand strong. He’s refusing to surrender border control to the feds. He’s correctly saying Texas has a supreme right to defend its own survival. There is a convoy of vehicles from other states gearing up to head to Texas in support of the Governor and the people of Texas. THIS IS a state, Texas, nullifying illegitimate federal power. This IS decentralization in action. It could become a major moment in American history. (By the time you read this, other events may have superseded everything that has happened so far…)
UPDATE 2: Other Governors ARE now supporting Texas—most if not all Republican Governors (27 states have a Republican governor). Will they send their state guard troops to augment Texas’ guard, for the purpose of turning back the flow of illegal immigrants? Urge them to do it!
Is it possible Governor Greg Abbott is preventing a fraction of the killer drug fentanyl from entering the US? That son of a bitch. How dare he try to stop Americans from dying. Who does he think he is? The White House is committed to partnering with the Mexican cartels to ensure the smooth flow of drugs across the southern border.
CBS News, January 12: “Texas state officials this week abruptly blocked federal U.S. Border Patrol agents from entering and patrolling a public area in the border town of Eagle Pass where they typically first encounter migrants who cross the Rio Grande illegally, two U.S. officials told CBS News on Thursday.”
That’s called state vs, federal power. It’s also called a glint of light in the darkness of the ongoing cartel invasion.
CBS: “After seizing control of Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, Texas National Guard units deployed by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott have prevented [federal] Border Patrol agents from entering the area, the federal officials said. Border Patrol has used the park in recent weeks to hold migrants in an outdoor staging area before they are transported for further processing, including last month, when illegal crossings soared to record levels.”
“Earlier Thursday, Texas state officials prevented Border Patrol boats from patrolling that area, one of the officials added, requesting anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the press.”
“‘They are denying entry to [federal] Border Patrol agents to conduct our duties,’ the official said, noting they are not sure ‘what authority (Texas officials) have over the federal government.’”
Texas officials have all the authority they can take, in order to keep Texans and Americans safe. They’re nullifying federal control. They’re doing exactly what the Colonies who signed the US Constitution would do, whenever the federal government acted like a tyrant.
CBS: “In a filing early Friday with the Supreme Court, the Justice Department described the extraordinary standoff between Texas and the federal government. Citing testimony from local officials and photos, the Justice Department said Texas was using armed Guardsmen and vehicles to deny Border Patrol agents and federal National Guard soldiers access to roughly 2.5 miles of the U.S.-Mexico border.”
“‘Texas’s new actions,’ the Justice Department said, ‘demonstrate an escalation of the State’s measures to block Border Patrol’s ability to patrol or even to surveil the border and be in a position to respond to emergencies’.”
Yes, emergencies like interruption of the ability of illegal aliens to cross into America.
CBS: “Under federal law, Border Patrol has a legal responsibility to process migrants on U.S. soil and determine whether to detain them, transfer them to another agency, deport them or release them into the country, pending a court hearing. The international boundary between the U.S. and Mexico is located in the middle of the Rio Grande in Texas.”
Translation: The feds have the power to facilitate, in every way possible, the movement of unlimited numbers of illegal aliens into America. For any reason under the sun. For example, to create more Democrat voters. To stimulate crime and chaos.
CBS: “In a statement Friday regarding the events in Eagle Pass, White House spokesperson Angelo Fernández Hernández said Texas was seeking to ‘politicize the border’.”
“‘Governor Abbott continues his extreme political stunts that not only seek to demonize and dehumanize people, but that also make it harder and more dangerous for Border Patrol to do their jobs,’ Fernández Hernández said.”
Yes, it’s extremely dehumanizing to stop migrants from illegally entering the US. On top of that, the Texas Governor is dehumanizing Mex cartel drug humpers who are bringing in millions of doses of fentanyl.
CBS: “The seizure of Shelby Park is the latest and most brazen effort by Texas state officials to challenge the federal government’s authority on immigration. Under Abbotts leadership, Texas has bused tens of thousands of migrants to Democratic-led cities, arrested thousands of migrant adults on trespassing charges and fortified the banks of the Rio Grande with razor wire and floating barriers.”
“Last month, Abbott signed a law known as SB4 that would allow Texas law enforcement officials to arrest, jail and prosecute migrants on state criminal charges of entering the country illegally. The law, which criminalizes an action already illegal at the federal level, is being challenged in federal court by the Justice Department and civil rights groups. It is set to take effect in March.”
“In an affidavit attached to the Supreme Court filing, Robert Danley, a top Customs and Border Protection official in Eagle Pass, said Texas’ actions were preventing his agents from patrolling the Rio Grande and processing migrants, including those who may be in distress…”
“Now, Border Patrol is being forced to process migrants near a busy highway, Danley added.”
Those distressed illegal aliens and the oh so friendly federal agents are interrupted by the sounds of cars passing nearby.
Imagine the distress of these illegals, who are so close to receiving federal perks like free housing, wherever they wind up inside the US—but are now being stopped by Texas agents.
The feds interpret the word “Illegal” to mean “legal.” That’s their job and their mandate.
The Texas Governor has a different opinion.
Now that DeSantis has dropped out of the Presidential race, it’s time for him to issue a statement supporting Governor Abbott. It’s time for other Governors to support Abbott and make this a crisis issue.
The issue of tyrannical federal power versus state power.
Thomas Jefferson: “[If the federal government] assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force….Where [federal] powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy.”
The federal government’s interpretation of immigration law (“let them all in”) gives the feds undelegated powers, and state nullification of this federal power is the remedy.
Suppose the Congress passed a law that made poisoning a person a major felony—and then the Executive Branch interpreted the law to mean only arsenic could be considered a poison. Each one of the 50 states could nullify the Executive’s version of the law.
For the fifth time, here is my recent report on the “fentanyl situation,” which the open southern border is facilitating. It’s one reason why the states MUST rebel on immigration:
Fentanyl is an incredibly lethal drug.
Two milligrams is a deadly dose. Two milligrams is the weight of seven grains of salt.
Now follow the math—
Insightcrime.org, November 21, 2023:
Fentanyl seizures along the US-Mexico border have hit record highs, suggesting that, despite a supposed ban on production of the deadly synthetic opioid in parts of Mexico, a multitude of criminal groups are keeping production apace.
United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents seized 12,119 kilograms (26,718 pounds) of illicit fentanyl along the country’s southwest border with Mexico in the 2023 fiscal year, which runs from October to September. This marked a nearly 90% increase from the 6,397 kilograms (14,104 pounds) officials seized in the previous fiscal year.
Let’s call the seizure an even 12,000 kilograms.
Remember, this is only the seizure total for one year.
12,000 kilograms equal 12 billion milligrams. (There are a million milligrams in a kilogram.)
With a lethal dose of fentanyl pegged at 2 milligrams, we’re talking about enough fentanyl to kill 6 billion people.
Again, that’s only fentanyl seized along the southern border during one year.
If we add in the fentanyl seized in the prior year, 2022, there is easily enough to kill every person on Earth.
And of course, no one knows how much fentanyl has slipped into the US through the border and has never been found.
The standard law-enforcement assessment is: however much we’ve seized, we assume much more has gotten through unnoticed.
6 billion deaths.
6 BILLION.
Would you call that a problem?
An emergency?
A reason for the federal government to stand up and start shouting and actually DO something?
Do you think this rates some serious attention? AS IN: SHUTTING DOWN THE BORDER WITH 50,000 TROOPS?
Or would you say, “Look, I realize this is a tough situation, but the HUMANITARIAN flow of immigrants into the United States MUST remain our highest priority”?
That happens to be the irreversible priority of this federal administration.
You can rank that priority anywhere on a scale from ignorant to psychotic to genocidal. It IS genocidal.
The main reason people turn away from GENOCIDAL is the reaction: If it’s this horrible it couldn’t be true.
Which gets us nowhere.
Is all this sinking in yet?
—If THIS isn’t a reason for all 50 states—and the American people—to nullify the federal application of immigration law—complete insanity is prevailing.
What the Texas Governor is presently doing to push back against federal border “control” should be just the beginning of a tidal wave of rebellion against the feds.
Unless we’re all in love with suicide.
