Border Patrol Says Agents Will NOT Remove Texas Razor Wire Barriers
In defiance of the Biden Administration’s wishes, senior figures within Customs and Border Protection have stated that there are no plans to have Border Patrol agents remove razor wire barriers erected along sections of the border by the Texas National Guard.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.
The Border Patrol Union also issued a statement outlining that agents will not interfere with Texas National Guard members carrying out “lawful” operations.
“TX NG and rank-and-file BP agents work together and respect each other’s jobs. Period. If TX NG members have LAWFUL orders, then they have to carry out those orders,” the statement notes.
“Rank-and-file BP agents appreciate and respect what TX has been doing to defend their state in the midst of this catastrophe that the Biden Admin has unleashed on America,” the statement continues, adding “We want to be perfectly clear, there is no fight between rank-and-file BP agents and the TX NG, Gov. Abott, or TX DPS.”
“It may make flashy headlines, but it simply isn’t true,” the statement concluded.
The development comes as Texas Governor Greg Abbott told Tucker Carlson the State is “prepared” for conflict with the federal government.
Twenty five States have expressed support for Texas, with ten of them, according to Abbot, deploying their own National Guard to Texas to help.
Commandeering the TNG still looking like a good idea to ya, Slow Jaux? Because in light of this development, it might very well not work out for you exactly as you think it will, at least not in the great Republic of Texas anyway.

I’ll just say it again 🙂
The corrupt cabal running the federal government is not going to risk a shoot it out showdown. They are corrupt but they are not stupid.
“midst of this catastrophe that the Biden Admin has unleashed on America,”
catastrophe?
Please substitute the word “war” and the sentence would be closer to the truth.
Biden has correctly gauged the FAFO index on this one.
So…
has Gov. Abbott moved to fence off the CBP Ports Of Entry where FedGov is letting illegals in by the trainload, unhindered, 24/7/365….or NOT?
If not, this was all a massive David Copperfield set-up, and we’ve all been played, and nothing has changed.
Give a holler…
hhluce reported in a comment earlier that it was a charade. With Abbot we have to see results to know if it is anything more than that.
It’s official:
It’s all been one great big bullshit charade:
Read ’em and weep:

As feared. The GOPe WANTS more illegals. They just don’t want you to know that.
I guess we can’t really count on anything unless and until the TNG receives orders to start shooting illegals as they come across. It’s truly sad.
Oh, and the pic you ran the other day of the welded-open boirder-fence gates is kinda telling too, ain’t it?
Yeah.
That’s all on Gropey Joe Poopypants, but if Abbott was serious he would have directed the TNG to cut the welds, close those gates, and re-weld them closed.
But that would have required him to be serious, not play-acting.
Fat chance.
