Meanwhile down at the Texas Border

[Beachnutt]

Gregg Abbott is wasting lots of taxpayer money trying to create an illegal immigration problem for President Biden.
The immigrants are not there.
Keep an eye on this guy as he monitors the border and the places that temporarily house the folks coming here.

1. So what will the Super Trucker Patriot Convoy...

...do when they roll coal into town?

[Beachnutt]

2. They'll ride up and down the streets

creating havoc and throwing their jugs of pee all over the place.

[dchill]

3. So, same as it ever was, same as it ever was.

[Walleye]

6. And they are not at all deterred by the high price of fuel

[PSPS]

14. Exactly. Who is paying these people. They are not wealthy.

[TxGuitar]

9. This is getting zero coverage

At least in Houston. Is it really a big deal?

[dchill]

10. Not as big as they'd like, I'll venture.

[liberal N proud]

4. Fabricate a crisis for your enemy and preserve the crisis for the cult leader

These trump loyalists are sick!

[TxGuitar]

5. This is it exactly

Really. This border crisis has been "ginned up" by the Rethugs. Certainly there are issues but MSM and the Rethugs are making it far worse. But this is their playbook.

[Walleye]

7. It's fits so neatly into their racist mindset

[bluesbassman]

8. And all the while rejecting every attempt at doing something about it in Congress.

Then complain about ’Biden’s” border crisis on the news shows with zero pushback about their intentional lack of action.

11. Abbott is doing this to try to hurt Biden, but I think he has another motive.

He wants to be president, and he may be positioning himself as the Trump alternative if Trump is convicted or his dementia becomes so obvious that Republicans decide to dump him. Abbott would have an advantage over Haley because she has no experience with migrants, and Abbott would win the rabid evangelicals and the anti-immigrant crowds in a heartbeat because he does the mean, hateful things they like.

[TxGuitar]

13. Abbott is delusional

He would have zero chance

[usonian]

12. All the world loves a clown show.

Just gotta choose more wisely.
