Texas Gov. Greg Abbott joined "America Reports" Friday with an exclusive update on conditions at two facilities where migrants are being held after crossing the U.S-Mexico border.
ABBOTT: We've known this is a crisis. What I learned in just the past hour shows that we are now dealing with a humanitarian disaster.
I need to talk to you about two of the three locations where migrants are being held in Texas ... in addition to the Dallas location, there's the location in Carrizo Springs, which is in south Texas, as well as in Midland.
What we learned in Midland, just in the past hour, [are] two things.

Get many state officials to document the open border that was created by Bide/Harris. Blanket all local news in Texas with the out of control recorded happenings. Where are RINOS Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and Mitt "Pierre Delecto" Romney?

Great! They told us to get vaccinated, wear 2 masks and not to gather with loved ones. And here, they are bringing in COVID to our midst without an iota of conscience

It's a cesspool. Like I said, this sure looks like Obama's third term as president.

The red state govs need to start telling the Feds to go pound sand on their insane policies. If DC sends DOJ types in, arrest them.

Why did Gov Abbott let these people into Texas? Is Biden running Texas now? Abbot spends millions chasing them around, and rounding them up. When they step onto Texas soil, aren't these illegals subject to Texas law?

Texas and other border states should close the unfinished wall. Ask for donations and volunteers.
Your coffers will overflow. It is your state and our country that's being destroyed by an out of touch demon party (literally behind a guarded fence) Time for US to put a stop to what's happening

COVID here, COVID there, COVID, COVID everywhere. Checking in at the temperature station Wednesday morning, I observed what appeared to be a glass bowl of candy. Turned out to be pin-on "flair" - "I've been vaccinated" buttons. Friday morning we received an email survey to glean whether we would take the vaccine if offered on-site. It may wind up pushing me to earlier retirement.

So another democrat socialist plan for the obama fascists to take down the nation. This many well nourished (overweight), caravaned in, with cell phones and biden t-shirts with worse diseases than China virus is well funded. So, for those of us that comply with lockdowns, shuttered businesses, distancing, masks and the idiots that get a rush enforcing this crap. You have been played.

Wait - - wait - - look for a thundering editorial in the NY Slimes - - demanding that the press have full access to these children's concentration camps.
Yes - - that's what they'll call them - - concentration camps for poor, brown-skinned children. You wait - - just you wait - - - - - - - - -

Gov. Abbott admits "We've known this is a crisis." Texas state and local governments have done NOTHING but dither and blather to meet this crisis", with photo ops for the hearing impaired. So, here we go with more COVIDS imported from Mexico and Central America with assistance from the federal government and stand-by observation by the state. Great job, all around.

You've known about the crises but waited go national about it to distract from the gov's and Gauleiters' power grabs, the poor winter storm response, and crappy infrastructure. Since they were let in, the only option to protect Texans is to have DPS, the Rangers and what's left of the National Guard to establish perimeters around these locations and no one gets in. And the only ones to get out are on buses - better yet NG trucks - and return them across the border.

Governor Abbott of Texas must take control of his border and close it down... it's a safety issue and biden is to stupid to do anything about it...so it's up to each of US to step up...do what WE can to protect our families...DC is only interested in cocktail parties and ramming through unhealthy legislation to RULE over our country...shame on the supreme court and Vice President pence for letting this happen...they... collectively let US down...

The second wave in the war to destroy America is on; the ammunition: Chicom germ warfare weaponized illegal aliens being seeded throughout the country.
And here we ruminate: lambs being led to the slaughter. Flashback: 5 million Jews in Hitler’s Germany being written exponentially here...now.

Biden, Pelosi, Schumer - and the rest of their bunch - are high-fivin' each other over their triumph. They 'got their way' and are not interested in what's happening at the border; the 'peasants' among us will deal with them. These uppity know-it-alls are not a bit worried because they'll continue to live in luxury on Capitol Hill. Probably having their up-to-the-knee boots shined today.

Are all of the posters calling for Abbott to take action ready, willing, and able to take up arms to openly resist and overcome the federal government? Didn't think so.

#27 - Your point escapes me, as one of those posters. Texas is a sovereign state with powers to enforce the laws. No one is asking our elected, appointed and on-the-payroll agents to do anything but their jobs. Abbott, et al, are AWOL on a number of issues in Texas. He has sworn an oath, and seems to be failing in his duty. You know, that part saying he "will to the best of my ability preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States and of this State..." If doing virtually nothing but speechfying is the best of his abilities, Texas is in deep stuff.

These Illegals already got in. In years to come after they get Amnesty we will have to worry about whether the Chain Migration of their grandparents will bring another wave of Tuberculosis, leprosy and Chagas’ disease.

But, but, this can't be true! Biden, Democrats, and the MSM all give us their word that everything is under control at the boarder.
Could all of them be lying to us?
