The Biden administration is claiming that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's inspection of trucks entering the U.S. from Mexico is not only "unnecessary," but contributing to inflation throughout the country.
In a statement issued Wednesday morning, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said that the delays caused by Abbott's policies were having far-reaching impacts. "Governor Abbott’s unnecessary and redundant inspections of trucks transiting ports of entry between Texas and Mexico are causing significant disruptions to the food and automobile supply chains, delaying manufacturing, impacting jobs, and raising prices for families in Texas and across the country.," Psaki said. Last week, Abbott directed the Texas Department of Public Safety to carry out

Like shutting down the
Keystone, canceling oil and gas drilling leases, and increasing regulations to do business haven’t had any effect, Jen? Or maybe shutting down the economy and pumping trillions of dollars in with no increases in production.

Nobody in Texas is as stupid as she thinks they are. Nice try, Jen. Sell it to MSNBC's (miniscule) audience.

Just going by all the violations found, plus the loads of illegals being hauled over in trucks, the truck inspections are not redundant. They are probably the first real inspections a lot of those trucks have ever had. If Biden and his bosses weren't so busy breaking the law by not enforcing them, we wouldn't have to do the Feds' job for them.

Abbott's orders would not be necessary if the Biden administration would enforce the border and immigration laws. Since neither is happening, Abbott is doing what he can to protect the border. If people want to blame anyone for delays and any other consequences, blame the Biden administration's llax border enforcement.

you gotta give the demcommies credit for being the stupidest people on the planet, thinking / believing that everything they tell us, we will press our "Save" button and enter the lie into our internal databank under the category of "true" - diapers was yelling at us, again, in Iowa, before the bird dropped some excreted matter onto his suit lapel, too bad the bird's trajectory was off by about 2-3 inches, it should have hit him right on the top of his hairless dome

This administration is getting desperate. Their messaging about our historical inflation is quickly becoming comical.

It doesn't matter now since the Gov opened the border back up as of this morning.
That's the problem with Abbott, he talks a good game but quietly backs down once the press leaves.

Prices went up before Abbott started the inspections. He stopped the inspections, did prices immediately come down.

It is her boss and the criminals who helped steal the election who are responsible for the mess we are in. These same people are continuing to steal our rights by drawing the district lines to garner more Democrat votes. They are not satisfied in how much they have damaged this country and are hell bent to make it look like a third world country where they control everything and everybody.

#14, I read that the inspections went back to normal because the Mexican state Governor at that port of entry had signed an agreement with Abbott to increase border security. And that the other ports of entry in other Mexican states were still getting the 'business' inspection-wise. Of course, the media is probably lying, but I did see that report.

I thought this liar was leaving.
Dems are desperate to try to blame someone else for their massive, country-wide disaster. They have broken EVERYTHING in only 14 months or so.

If California is able to stop truckers/trucks at their border. due to certain regulations....
and THAT is well and good; Why is it so terrible that the Texas Governor does the same
in order to keep his citizens safe and secure. Cry your eyes out , you Socialist, you.
