Late last month, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said "Texas will see you in court"
in a letter to President Joe Biden after the Biden administration
demanded that Texas remove floating barriers that had been set up in the
Rio Grande to deter illegal immigrants from crossing.
The federal government hasn't given up, and a federal judge ruled Wednesday that Texas must take down the barriers.
We're not sure at all how this is a federal issue.
So that both good and the bad could flow in huh

What is Biden’s obsession with illegals? Other than their fraudulent votes?

Ah, relying on the "No Barriers in Places I Don't Want Them" statute!
— Dr. Sleve McDichael (veruhfied in 2016) (@SeahawkBurrrton) September 6, 2023
wrote that Abbott needed permission to install the barriers, as dictated by law.
“Governor
Abbott announced that he was not ‘asking for permission’ for Operation
Lone Star, the anti-immigration program under which Texas constructed
the floating barrier. Unfortunately for Texas, permission is exactly
what federal law requires before installing obstructions in the nation’s
navigable waters,” the judge wrote in his ruling.
So
here's the scam: The Biden administration is saying Abbott "violated
the Rivers and Harbors Appropriation Act by building a structure in US
water without permission from the United States Army Corps of
Engineers." That's why it's so important that Texas remove the barriers
and let immigrants cross wherever they like.
