Republican Sabotage of the Economy to Own The Democrats

'White House, truckers blast Tex. as inspections of trucks from Mexico snarl commercial traffic' WP

https://www.washingtonpost.com/busin...abbott-mexico/

Gov. Abbott sends his minions to duplicate Federal inspections at the southern border causing truckloads of vegetables to spoil.

We need to send the 82nd and the 101st Airborne Divisions - to Austin. Maybe an armored division or two equipped with M1-A1s and AH64 Apaches to deal with these assholes.

it's Texas, they're insane and no one should waste any time trying to reason with them.

That looks like an immigration fight / issue

Admit it! It was a republican stunt that was making big trouble and costing millions while doing no good for anything.

Abbott is up for re-election in Nov. Expect many more absurd stunts like this one, and the stunt of bussing migrants to DC. His idiot TX constituents love this sort of thing.

The man ran partially on an anti-immigration policy - it appears he's making good on it.

I guess the border is the exception to the "right to life" defenders, it's for the "we the people", from conception to birth. After that, you're on your own, pilgrim. Oh, and here's some guns, regardless of your competence, we don't care what you want them for.
Trumpism= make America white again, like that matters in the cosmic grand scheme.
Fine, Texas can do it's own seasonal stoop labor.

Thnx, I feel better now.
Populist lieing demagogic mid-term political ads have been running constantly here for the last few months, frying my senses, and have another month to go.

That's what a lot of such things are. Texas will claim to be one of the wealthiest, best run states in the country, then blame the federal government for their "problems". What "problems"? I thought they had everything under control down there? As my Father once told me, "The only problem with Texas is that it's full of Texans.".

Yes, it's very important that he make good on a bad promise. Do you see how many of those folks who cross the border don't stay in Texas anyways? We have a bunch of them here in Virginia, my folks say there's plenty in Ohio and I'm sure it's similar in nearly every state. What Abbott is doing is nothing more than a goofy political stunt to appease his redneck base.

Seems to be Modus Operandi with the GOP.

I blame Biden and party leaders for not patting themselves on the back more. Bragging on all the construction and repairing going on.

Around here all you see is building and road work yet in a Red state the Dems are silent...WTF!
Letting other look good???? Taking credit....
