So when the supreme court rules, women’s wombs are jurisdiction of the federal government. You all clap and cheer along? But when they rule, the federal government has jurisdiction over a national border. You all boo and threaten to secede? It’s almost as if you don’t care about “law and order.”
These are the thoughts that have been on my mind lately as I observe the conflicting reactions when it comes to different Supreme Court rulings. On one hand, we see the celebration and support when the court upholds laws that restrict a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body.… Continue reading
Trump Calls on ‘All Willing States’ to Send National Guard Soldiers to Texas
As I sit here, reading the latest news about former President Donald Trump, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of frustration and concern. Trump’s recent call for “all willing states” to deploy their National Guard soldiers to Texas is, quite frankly, alarming. It makes me question the state of our democracy and the intentions of those in power.
How is it possible for a private citizen, someone who holds no official authority, to call for military action inside the United States? This goes against the very principles on which our nation was founded.… Continue reading
Greg Abbott vows “this is not over” after Supreme Court border loss. As I read the news about Governor Abbott’s response to the Supreme Court’s ruling on the border, a flood of thoughts and emotions overwhelmed me. It is disheartening to see how politicians like Abbott prioritize their own agenda and political aspirations over the well-being of the people they are meant to serve.
First and foremost, it is evident that Abbott’s defiant stance is nothing more than a political stunt. It feels reminiscent of the tactics employed by Ron DeSantis, another governor who seems more interested in promoting his own image than addressing the real issues at hand.… Continue reading
Joe Biden Can—and Should—Take Over the Texas National Guard
As an American citizen deeply concerned with the state of our nation, I believe it is time for President Joe Biden to take decisive action in response to Governor Greg Abbott’s flagrant disregard for the Constitution. If Abbott is going to use his National Guard to go against the established legal framework, then President Biden should follow in the footsteps of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and nationalize the state agency entirely.
Abbott’s recent actions in deploying the Texas National Guard to the border are not only unconstitutional but also undermine the rule of law.… Continue reading
Republicans turned down $13.6 billion for border security on January 18th. This decision has sparked controversy and debate, highlighting the broader issues surrounding immigration and border control in the United States. As I reflect on this topic, it becomes clear that the Republican Party’s actions are not driven by genuine concern for border security, but rather by political motivations.
It is evident that Republicans view immigration as a reliable way to raise funds and rally their base. The issue of immigration, specifically illegal immigration, has been a divisive topic that consistently stirs emotions and sparks heated debates. By positioning themselves as tough on immigration, Republicans can energize their base and gain support.… Continue reading
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott recently released a statement outlining states’ rights to constitutional self-defense when dealing with a “lawless president.” As a Texan and a loyal American, this statement has left me both deeply concerned and frustrated. It seems that Abbott is using this issue as a political ploy, rather than genuinely addressing the challenges at hand.
First and foremost, it is important to acknowledge that immigration is a complex issue that affects numerous states, not just Texas. So, why is Abbott the only governor making such a fuss? Migrants cross into New Mexico, Arizona, and California as well, yet they are not engaging in the same level of theatrics.… Continue reading
Chicago banned unannounced migrant drop-offs. Now this Texas charter bus company is suing over the restrictions
What in the hell are we even doing anymore? Anyone have any idea?
As I read the headline and the comments surrounding the article, I can’t help but feel a sense of frustration and disappointment. It seems like we are collectively going nowhere very fast. The issue of immigration continues to divide us, and it’s disheartening to see the lack of progress and empathy on all sides.
Republicans currently have a seemingly good immigration deal on the table, but they hesitate to pursue it because they don’t want to make Biden look good.… Continue reading
Joe Biden Faces Growing Calls to Federalize Texas National Guard
The debate surrounding the federalization of the Texas National Guard has reached a critical juncture, as calls for President Joe Biden to take action grow louder. Critics argue that Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s refusal to comply with Supreme Court orders to remove razor wire and his handling of the immigration situation demonstrate a blatant disregard for the rule of law.
At the heart of this issue is a larger question of how far states can go in challenging federal authority. While states have some autonomy, there are clear limits to their power when it comes to matters affecting national security and the welfare of the country as a whole.… Continue reading
Governor Abbott declares an “invasion”. Supersedes any federal statutes.
In a recent statement, Governor Greg Abbott declared that Texas has the constitutional right to defend and protect itself as President Joe Biden continues to attack the state. He argues that the influx of illegal immigrants along the southern border constitutes an invasion, and therefore, Texas has the power to supersede any federal statutes that contradict its actions. This declaration has sparked controversy and raised questions about the limits of state power and the authority of the federal government.
Before diving into the discussion, it is crucial to examine the key arguments surrounding this issue.… Continue reading
Joe Biden Could Seize Texas National Guard From Greg Abbott in Border Feud
The issue of illegal immigration over the U.S.-Mexico border has been a topic of concern for many years. The surge in numbers, as stated by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, is alarming. However, the way Texas Governor Greg Abbott has been handling the situation is nothing short of a political theater. It’s clear that his Operation Lonestar has been nothing more than a waste of time and money.
In an election year, it’s important for Biden to remain patient and rational. He must keep the situation calm and not give in to political theatrics.… Continue reading
