…and nobody showed up? That’s the old Vietnam-era trope. Here’s the modern-day equivalent:
And:
Fox News reports that a high ranking CBP official told the network that their relationship with the Guard is “strong”.
“While this issue plays out in the courts, the relationship between Border Patrol, Texas DPS [Department of Public Safety], & TMD [Texas Military Dept.] remains strong,” the official said, adding “Our focus is and will always be the mission of protecting this country and its people.”
“On the ground, we continue to work alongside these valuable partners in that endeavor,” the official continued, adding “Bottom line: Border Patrol has no plans to remove infrastructure (c-wire) placed by Texas along the border.”
“Our posture remains the same. If we need to access an area for emergency response, we will do so. When that happens, we will coordinate with Texas DPS & TMD,” the official further declared.
You see, long after the current Administration has passed into the “Bad News” section of the history books, the Border Patrol will still have to work with the Texas guys. Let’s just hope they stick to their ummm statements.
So, ask that question again…?
actions speak louder than words. Let’s see how this plays out.

They had me at “outhouse lawyer.”
“Lawful”….like that word means anything anymore with the filthy fucks “lawmakers” are.
There’s right and there’s wrong. I’m with JQ.
PFC Richard Sorely, a volunteer in the Texas National Guard, committed seppuku today when ordered by his regular boss at CPD to engage the enemy.
As I recall the original – or at least most widely used – version of that (dumb) idea was “What if they gave a war and nobody came?”
My reaction was always; Great, IF you can arrange it. But if YOUR SIDE is the only one that doesn’t show up, then you’re screwed.
correct. Or if your side has nobody to show up…
Say Biden federalises the Guard and deploys them all to the sandbox for some “crisis”, then sends the regular army into Texas to “quench the insurrection”. There’d be nobody to oppose them.
The same BP agents that have been following illegal orders to welcome illegals in and shipping them all over the country without screening? Fuck them.
