Texas finds itself at the center of a very political standoff with the federal authorities. While the Supreme Court authorized the border guards to cut the barbed wire installed by the Texan authorities, the national guards of this state continue to install them on the banks of the Rio Grande, the border with Mexico.
US President Joe Biden now has the option of expropriating Texas National Guardsmen from serving local authorities. But Governor Greg Abbott, on the same television channel, is preparing to continue to stand up to defend “the” border.
