Despite the Biden administration’s efforts, the 25 states supporting Texas have begun sending reinforcements by air and land to protect its border and, on the other hand, to prevent possible federal military intervention against it.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said he’s not entirely sure what Biden’s next move will be after the Supreme Court signaled the feds could remove razor wire at state-controlled Shelby Park without blocking Gov. Greg Abbott from installing it again.
“As for the showdown, I don’t know what Joe Biden is going to do. It still seems like every decision he made was a bad decision for our country,” Paxton said.

As Texas faces a potential federal standoff, the state’s district attorney says the border looks like Biden ‘made a deal with the cartels,’ the Texas governor says. He said Biden is not just collaborating, but is “in partnership” with Latin American drug cartels. He says that under Biden, members of transnational criminal organizations have stopped hiding, and are specifically looking for the border patrol to enter the United States with the flow of refugees.

Let us remind you that earlier the state governor, Greg Abbott, began building a barbed wire wall along the border with Mexico.
The US Supreme Court allowed the federal authorities to remove this wall, after which a confrontation between Washington and the Texas authorities began. The Texas National Guard continues to build fortifications and keeps border guards away.
“We’re adding more razor wire now to make sure we’re doing even more to secure the border,” Abbott said today in an interview with Bloomberg Television.

“Texas has the constitutional authority to do exactly what we are doing because the framers of the Constitution knew there would be times when the federal government would not do its job and states would have the right to defend themselves,” he added.
At the same time, Texas’ position in the border conflict with the federal authorities is supported by many other states where Republicans rule.
Earlier, the media wrote that in Texas, amid migration scandals, calls for secession from the United States have intensified.
