Texas Fights Back: Floating Barriers & the Battle for Border Control

Texas is taking a stand on border security. Gov. Greg Abbott has authorized the use of floating barriers on the Rio Grande to deter illegal border crossings. The Department of Justice, however, deems these barriers a safety and navigation risk, threatening to sue Texas. Abbott asserts the state’s sovereign right to defend its border, pointing to the human tragedies resulting from illegal crossings. He vows to continue all strategies to safeguard Texas residents and migrants risking their lives in dangerous crossings. Meanwhile, the barriers, spinning buoys designed to deter illegal crossings, remain a point of contention. This is part of Texas’ broader Operation Lone Star effort, fighting the consequences of current immigration policies.

  • There are a lot of animals that feel more strongly about guarding our border than Biden does. How about hippos, electric eels and water moccasins. They don't want illegals crossing our border either.

  • I APPLAUD Texas for trying to DEFEND my Border State of Maryland. These CRIMINALS crossing into America IS BAD! In Maryland there have been 21year old "children" in schools RAPING CHILDREN. Then biden's REGIME defend the NON-EXISTENT RIGHTS of these NON-CITIZENS! PAST TIME TO CLOSE THE BORDER TO ALL EXCEPT those who COME TO AMERICA LEGALLY!!!
