Abbott invites legal fight over Texas' anti-migrant obstacle course
MSNBCAPR 2023
These cruel and dangerous buoys are just the latest part of Abbott’s illegal attempt to localize dangerous approaches to immigration law enforcement. Neither Abbott nor any Republicans seem to care about the humanitarian crises the buoys and other tactics are causing, and they’re accompanying anti-immigrant rhetoric is stoking the flames of white supremacy and putting the country at risk.
If the current administration won't protect the southern border, then Texas is well within its rights to do whatever it takes to keep it and the country safe. If Democrats are so worried about an alleged humanitarian crisis, they should discourage migrants from attempting the dangerous journey to the US from wherever they’re from. Woke, leftist immigration policies are the real danger for America — not attempts to bolster barriers to illegal entry.
