The Border

I’m going to start a little thing. When I make my posts, I used to include, at the end, some simple things and maybe some links. Just little tidbits I found funny or was following in the news. Maybe another blogger. I’m going to start doing that again, but I’m going to put them at the top.

So, here ya go

I’m currently watching some reaction videos on youtube. It’s pretty much just watching other people watching a show. They edit out the boring parts. So it is kind of like watching reruns, but only the highlights. Right now, I’m watching “funnylilgalreacts” react to “The Expanse”.

I found an old Navy friend on Twitter/X. Hit on her a little. Tried chatting her up. But ghet this. And some of you will find this hard to believe. She is WAAAAY further left than I am right. To her I am a MAGAt. So she nuked me. Then she killed her page and started over and I was back! She tolerated me for a bit. Then…. I got nuked again. Sigh. Time to move on. 🙁

So let’s talk about the border. Y’all know the border patrol runs heavy in my family? My “Granddad” was a border patrolman. I have cousins down there right now. Right in the middle of this shit. It hits kind of heavy.

I have actually considered myself bringing a lawsuit against the Federal Govt myself. The constitution delineates border security to the Federal Govt. It is explicit. And looking at the 10th Amendment, Texas has no right to maintain the border. So I was looking for a way to force the Fed Govt to perform their duties. They plainly aren’t. How many Illegal Aliens are there in the US? There have been millions for decades. You might almost say it is policy.

I’m so happy somebody is doing something. But I’m more than a little bit afraid it could legit start a shooting civil war. I’m not real happy with the prospect of a shooting war starting outside my door.

It appears that for the moment the Biden Admin has blinked, but it could change quick. Because right now. Governor Abbott is only playing with Eagle pass. Wait until he expands it to the entire Texas border. Will other border states follow suit? Almost certainly California/Newsome will not. I tend to believe that Katie Hobbs of Arizona will not, but I think she is highly susceptible to the weather. Couldn’t tell you about NM.

Maybe we can finally get control of immigration.
