Texas is blocking U.S. border agents from patrolling, Biden administration tells Supreme Court
PBS NewsHourJAN 2 2024
Abbott is just ratcheting up fear in the run-up to the 2024 US election because current migrant crossings hardly compare to the huge numbers recorded in the early 2000s. The unprecedented blocking of federal agents in the name of tightening border control hides the fact that the current uptick in illegal crossings began before Biden's election. Abbott is playing politics and feeding the border security industry.
Biden is completely ignoring the immigration crisis. Given the lackluster efforts to deport illegal aliens, what is the true function of the Border Patrol? The "ignoring and enabling" cycle is plaguing the US southern border. This is a massive crisis for the US that the Biden admin. is failing tremendously.
