Really, Greg Abbott should ship many busloads to the leading news outlets. Drop them off at the home offices, see if ABC News, CNN, NY Times, etc will offer to feed and shelter the illegals. And at the US home office of the Associated Press, 200 Liberty Street, NYC
Texas is using disaster declarations to install buoys and razor wire on the US-Mexico border
Wrecking ball-sized buoys on the Rio Grande. Razor wire strung across private property without permission. Bulldozers changing the very terrain of America’s southern border.
For more than two years, Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott has escalated measures to keep migrants from entering the U.S., pushing legal boundaries with a go-it-alone bravado along the state’s 1,200-mile (1,930-kilometer) border with Mexico. Now blowback over the tactics is widening, including from within Texas.
A state trooper’s account of officers denying migrants water in 100-degree Fahrenheit (37.7 Celsius) temperatures and razor wire leaving asylum-seekers bloodied has prompted renewed criticism. The Mexican government, some Texas residents along the border and the Biden administration are pushing back. On Monday, the U.S. Justice Department sued Abbott over the buoy barrier that it says raises humanitarian and environmental concerns, asking a federal court to require Texas to dismantle it.
They can get their own water. They voluntarily trekked through Central America to show up. If they’re worried about getting hurt, don’t try and cross into the U.S. at non-designated points. This is on them. It’s the government’s job to defend the nation from invasion
Abbott, who cruised to a third term in November while promising tougher border crackdowns, has used disaster declarations as the legal bedrock for some measures.
The article spends pretty much no time explaining the declarations, but, they go back several years, such as the one he renewed in 2021. Texas counties have declared them, as well. How many laws has Biden broken with his open borders policy? Since he won’t enforce these laws the governor of Texas should have the right to use any means necessary, short of armed conflict, to keep illegal’s out. Why should Texas have to foot the bill for Bidens illegal policies?
Anyhow, many illegal aliens supporters, like the ACLU, are very upset with Abbott, but, aren’t offering to shelter and feed the illegals themselves. Regardless, the goal here is to control the border, a core duty of the government. Especially the Congress. It’s written in the Constitution, and, since they make the laws, it’s up to the Executive Branch to enforce those laws.

Climate change is reshaping the employment landscape, whether you want a career that helps the planet or just want a job in a growing field.
For Asa Hutchinson, former governor of Arkansas, there were boos and chants of “Trump! Trump!”. For Francis Suarez, mayor of Miami, there were jeers and cries of “Traitor!” And perhaps most tellingly, there was no Florida governor Ron DeSantis at all.
Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said Sunday that this summer’s record-setting heat is proof that climate change is harming the planet.
In many election cycles, there’s a snappy shorthand used to describe the type of voters who may help decide the winner. Think soccer moms or security moms. Even NASCAR dads.
Even as the nation is faced with blistering heat waves this summer, 
The U.S. Department of Energy on Friday proposed energy efficiency standards on water heaters it said would save consumers $11.4 billion on energy and water bills annually.
