The immigration crisis on the border of the US state of Texas with Mexico has become another spark that ignited American society. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has refused to implement a decision from the country's Supreme Court ordering the state to allow federal authorities to manage the border.

Abbott said he would defend the state against the "invasion" of illegal immigrants by using his state's National Guard. America faces a new, extremely dangerous precedent, represented by a direct confrontation between a single state and the federal government.
