To my best recollection, would-be prophets and pundits have been muttering predictions about a second civil war in the United States since the early days of the Obama administration. Of course, Joe Biden, the media, and the rest of the cast of characters that make up the American Left have excelled at fanning the flames of discontent with constant references to white supremacy, MONSTER-MAGA Republicans, and the never-ending vigil for January 6. And don’t forget Donald Trump, who is literally Hitler and will throw everyone who opposes him into GOP gulags if he doesn’t execute them first.
If the incendiary rhetoric was not enough, inflation, urban decay, rampant crime, a pandemic that was not remotely as awful as was advertised, and a severe decline in race relations added fuel to the fires of speculation that skullduggery is indeed afoot. And nowhere is this felt more keenly than at the border.
Yesterday, Paula reported that after an appeal by the Biden administration, the Supreme Court ruled that Customs and Border Patrol agents could continue to cut the razor wire that runs along the Texas border. The injunction will remain in place while Homeland Security et al. v. Texas is litigated. This sets up obvious tension between Texas and the feds in determining who is in charge of maintaining a state’s borders. And this is where the specter of civil war appears.
The Post Millennial notes that on Monday, Representative Clay Higgins (R-La.) opined on X that Biden and Co. are staging a civil war.
Media: “Congressman Higgins, the Supreme Court just ruled in favor of the Biden Admin over the State of Texas, saying that the federal government can remove physical barriers at the border put in place by Texas. What are your thoughts?”
Me: “My thoughts are that the feds are…
— Rep. Clay Higgins (@RepClayHiggins) January 22, 2024
In the expanded post, Higgins’ response was, “My thoughts are that the feds are staging a civil war, and Texas should stand their ground.”
Any time the issue of states’ rights rears its head, the Left is quick to jump on the Conservatives-Are-Confederates Bandwagon. The dividing issue of the actual Civil War was the right of one human being to own another. No civilized person would believe that slavery had any gross or net positives or that it was even remotely justifiable.
Rather than allowing the Left to paint the issue with its favorite brush, some context is needed. In this case, what we are discussing is the federal government asserting its right to force states to allow non-U.S. residents to move in or, at the very least, pass through. To my knowledge, the federal government has accepted no responsibility or even seriously acknowledged the spikes in crime, fentanyl use, human trafficking, or commerce, not to mention the increased burden on state and municipal infrastructures and the effect of unchecked immigration on residents.
If anyone wants to assert that the only people raising red flags are racist, white conservatives, that person should read Olivia Reingold’s article about a group of black Democrats suing Chicago. These people are outraged that the needs of black Chicagoans are being ignored in favor of illegal immigrants. As Rick pointed out earlier today, the issue is causing internecine fighting even among Illnois’ politicos.
There were a few Romans who felt it was a great ploy to let the barbarians from the north into Rome.
How’d that turn out for them?
Heads on pikes, by their own barbarian buds.
On the other hand, it might stoke support for Abbott, Texas and border states since they are trying to fill the void that should be filled by the federal government. But, I have a question… one of those obvious questions that shouldn’t even need to be asked. Regardless of who is standing guard at the border, what is wrong with razor wire along the border beyond the ports of entry?
Democrats love to complain that Republicans won’t act to “reform” immigration. First, a wide open border manned by Border “patrol” who do nothing but process each and every soul that shows up to cross so they can be released into the interior is not “reform”. It’s criminal. They also consistently block every state attempt to take control of their own interior, in favor of unrestricted illegal immigration. Remember Obama blocking Arizona’s SB1070? They pretend they want to talk about “reform” when all they really want is a full flood of illegal immigrants to form their new slave population.
In fiscal year 2023, Border Patrol reported apprehending 151 migrants with positive terrorism watchlist matches who entered the U.S. illegally along the southern border.
A claim that 6,000 Muslim migrants were captured at the U.S.-Mexico border with forged papers is unsubstantiated it could be many more or 5999.
How many got aways?
This illegal Alien, or as they soften it “migrant crisis” might sweep Trump into the White House, As we know A Republican was swept into the White House in the 1800s after being taken off the ballot in many states.
These Aliens are sucking up resources meant for Americans, tax dollars meant for our citizens.
NGOs funded with tax dollars are bringing more to the border then placing them everywhere into the interior, not just Chicago and NY.
If Biden can tell SCOTUS to f*** off, so can Greg Abbott
I think he already has. Problem, how far will Biden push this child and drug trafficking for the democrats cartel pals?
Mexico is the number one exporter of child and adult sex trafficking in the world. America is the number one importer of child and adult sex trafficking in the world. There is a lot of money in that business.
Kari Lake vowed to stop the invasion at the AZ border upon assuming the governorship. The power ylites said no and the AZ gubernatorial election was rigged and stolen.
Now there is a leaked, authentic, audio tape of those same power ylites who want her to not become a senator from AZ. The turtle, mitch McConnell is behind this you can bet your sweet bippy on that.

Overheard: “We used to get help rescuing trafficked children from Homeland Security and even the CIA. The day Biden was inaugurated, it all stopped.”
Personally, Joe Biden is a Child Molester. Professionally, he’s a Child Trafficker.
His own family calls him Pedo Pete. Hell, he calls himself that.
He traffics thousands of children by day–and molests them individually by night.
You are vastly insane.
How so? Refute something with facts.
Well, he has never been charged with child trafficking or child molestation. Those are facts.
That doesn’t mean that his policies which keeps our border wide open does not benefit the human traffickers. That makes him an accessory, doesn’t it? If he wanted to impede or stop the human trafficking, he could secure the border. This would cut off a huge revenue source for the cartels. As it is, they have made tens of billions of dollars from human trafficking across the border that Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden purposely removed the security measures from and made to be wide open and totally porous.
You really don’t get much more of a human trafficker than that.
biden violated his oath of office to enforce the laws as chief executive.
biden is in partnership with the cartels to traffic illegal aliens.
“biden is in partnership with the cartels to traffic illegal aliens.”
You’re nuts.
On your chin.
Oh, some good, old-fashioned homophobia, just for good measure!
You think I’m afraid of you? Where are those “white supremacists”?
Judging solely by your comments here, I believe that you think about homosexuality one whole hell of a lot. That’s what I think.
Oh? Provide some examples and the percentage of my comments that allude to homosexuality. Just because it’s a large part of your life doesn’t mean everyone obsesses about it. So, provide that percentage of my homosexual-centric comments or admit you are a liar.
38%.
Show your work.
The federal government has gone rogue. They are violating federal law. They anre constitutionally bound to protect the states. Oklahoma and Florida have stated they stand with Texas.
The federal government should be enforcing and respecting federal law. If they don’t, why should anyone else?
In Chicago, the Mayor is asking for people to house illegal immigrants in their homes. Is he not aware that aiding and abetting illegal immigration is a federal crime? Hopefully, the home owners are.
Abbott isn’t “aiding and abetting” by busing and flying undocumented aliens all over the country at taxpayer expense?
Where, exactly, does Abbott believe all of these people could be held in detention?
You were just complaining about no place to detain them.
Do you think its Abbot putting them on US flights without an ID?
The longer you hang out here, the ruder and cruder you become.
No, he is shedding them from my state. The one reason immigration is the #1 election issue is because the illegal immigrants have been sent to places other than the border states (most by the federal government) and the bleeding heart liberals who usually support illegal immigration but never feel any of the pain are getting a taste of what Democrats are doing to the nation. They HATE IT.
And ever busload of Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden’s wetbacks that Abbott rolls out of Texas REDUCES the tax burden on the Texas taxpayer.
Is there something wrong with busing or flying illegal immigrants out of Texas?
Yes. There’s something wrong with it. Abbott is breaking the law:
The penalty?
Is there something wrong with busing or flying illegal immigrants out of Texas?
Seriously, the GOP’s claim to be “the party of law and order” has turned to horse manure. But they’ve sold their souls to a man who’s cheated on every wife he’s had, who’s presently in court for damages related to rape, and who presently faces 91 federal and state felony counts in connection with unrelated matters.
The only way you can square that is to condemn the nation’s entire criminal justice system, both state and federal.
Democrats trample, shit and piss all over the Constitution and our laws. They obviously HATE the American people because they put unvetted illegal immigrants before US taxpaying citizens. Even the charges against Trump shows how they disregard and dishonor the DoJ.
So then… Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden is breaking the law, isn’t he? HE has been shipping far more wetbacks around the country than Abbott… Abbott just sends them strategically.
See, THIS is a crime a President COULD be prosecuted for because he is not carrying out national policy; he is intentionally breaking the law to benefit himself and his degenerate party.
Where, exactly, does Abbott believe all of these people could be held in detention?
It’s not like MAGA republicans in Congress have allowed any funding for increased border security. The budget they proposed earlier this month would have resulted in the loss of some 2,000 existing Customs and Border Patrol Agents.
01/24/24 – Senate conservatives turn up opposition to ‘stinking pile of crap’ border deal –
Of course their confident they’ll hate whatever deal emerges. They don’t want a deal. They don’t want solutions. They want something to bitch about in an election year.
McConnell and Langford have not disclosed the text of the deal moron.
It is a horrible deal.
How do you know it’s a horrible deal if they havent disclosed the text, Zippy?
Parts of it have been leaked. If you were a little more aware you might know. But since you watch TV for stupid people, they would not cover it.

There now I have done my civic duty be educated the uneducated.
But can you educate the stupid? I doubt it.
Yeah, even a clock is correct twice a day. But I will not hold my breath.
Because Democrats are involved in it.
And rino McConnell republicans.
Fake answer.
No, actually that is the essence of it. Democrats DO NOT WANT TO SECURE THE BORDER. Provide a single shred of evidence that is not true.
NOT NEGOTIABLE
I guess it all depends on the definition of “invasion,” then.
Oty oh how many words will you need to look up your self?
An intrusion or encroachment
How about the equivalent of a full army division crossing the border every day?
Let them all go to AZ and CA a short trip to open border.
Wonder how fast they can deputize citizens to join TX law enforcement, sounds like there is a call to truckers, bikers, and vets.
Mike can take a few MS13 in.
I’m in. Just give me transportation; I have my own firepower.
AR, OK and FL sending backup to assist in securing Texas border.

…while MAGA republicans in Congress cut Border Patrol funding in their proposed budget and prepare to block compromise legislation that they haven’t even read yet—all to keep a hot button issue alive that Trump can use to try to get reelected.
Some of them seem to want a Civil War rematch—the same states that instigated it the first time around to hang onto their slave labor. They used religion to justify slavery, if I remember my history correctly.
All to the benefit of Putin, China, Iran, and North Korea.
I think you’ve lost your minds.
Not closing the border is making it a hot button issue.
Utah’s gov just added our state to this list.
OPENING the secure border made it a hot-button issue. Democrats intentionally did this.
Funding to just process more illegal immigrants faster is not the solution, it only supports the Democrat policy of flooding the nation with as many illegal immigrants as possible. If you didn’t want it to be an issue, why did you open the border? It WAS secured by Trump?
I wish you assholes would just secede already. There will have to be some kind of repatriation agreement, unless you think that Wisconsin would join Trumpland.
You should do that here. Then you might feel better.
I will second that. Good riddance, don’t let the door hit you on the ass on your way out groomer.
You’re not going to start crying already this morning, are you?
Idiot thinks Wisconsin is only milk farmers, another ignorant bigot.
That’s what living on an IV-supplied diet of leftist propaganda will do to you.
I remember another flyover bigot, Richard, aint seen him in quite a while.
We do love our farmers. Just like Tx loves its ranchers, hard working honest folk.
Easy take Milwaukee and Madison, they are a burden to the working people here. One has the mental issues the other the crime. Make sure to take Terrible Tony and Rotton Robin, their politics fit beautifully with Illinois FIBs. Good luck without our Shipyards, Armored vehicles and Firetrucks.

A deal to just process illegal immigrants faster is not a deal that benefits the country.
You know what Trump did? He told Mexico that the illegal immigrants were going to be kept in Mexico until their “asylum” claim was adjudicated. You know what Mexico did? They stopped allowing the millions of illegal immigrants into Mexico under the condition that they are just passing through and would become the US’s problem. You know what THAT did? It pretty much solved the illegal immigrant problem. I’m not sure, but I DON’T think that is rocket science.
So, why did Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden purposely and intentionally undo this process? Well… to allow as many illegal immigrants into this country as is humanly possible. See, the issue is not providing enough facilities for all these illegal immigrants, it is keeping them from getting in in the first place. Apparently, some people are so goddamn stupid that they can’t figure that out.
Why are Democrats so interested in maintaining the drug cartels trafficking these human beings revenue stream? Money, money, money, money, money.
Cheaper, flash bangs and rubber bullets with dash of teargas.
GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT
January 24, 2024
The federal government has broken the compact between the United States and the States. The Executive Branch of the United States has a constitutional duty to enforce federal laws protecting States, including immigration laws on the books right now. President Biden has refused to enforce those laws and has even violated them. The result is that he has smashed records for illegal immigration.
Despite having been put on notice in a series of letters-
one of which I delivered to him by hand- President
Biden has ignored Texas’s demand that he perform his constitutional duties.
President Biden has violated his oath to faithfully execute immigration laws enacted by Congress.Instead of prosecuting immigrants for the federal crime of illegal entry, President Biden has sent his lawyers into federal courts to sue Texas for taking action to secure the border.President Biden has instructed his agencies to ignore federal statutes that mandate the detention of illegal immigrants. The effect is to illegally allow their en masse parole into the United States.By wasting taxpayer dollars to tear open Texas’s border security infrastructure, President Biden has enticed illegal immigrants away from the 28 legal entry points along this State’s southern border-bridges where nobody drowns and into the dangerous waters of the Rio Grande.Under President Biden’s lawless border policies, more than 6 million illegal immigrants have crossed our southern border in just 3 years. That is more than the population of 33 different States in this country. This illegal refusal to protect the States has inflicted unprecedented harm on the People all across the United States.
James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and the other visionaries who wrote the U.S. Constitution foresaw that States should not be left to the mercy of a lawless president who does nothing to stop external threats like cartels smuggling millions of illegal immigrants across the border. That is why the Framers included both Article IV, § 4, which promises that the federal government “shall protect each [State) against invasion,” and Article I, § 10, Clause 3, which acknowledges “the States’ sovereign interest in protecting their borders.” Arizona v: United States, 567 U.S. 387, 419 (2012) (Scalia, J., dissenting).|
The failure of the Biden Administration to fulfill the duties imposed by Article IV. § 4 has triggered Article I,
§ 10, Clause 3, which reserves to this State the right of self-defense. For these reasons, I have already declared an invasion under Article I, § 10, Clause 3 to invoke Texas’s constitutional authority to defend and protect itself. That authority is the supreme law of the land and supersedes any federal statutes to the contrary. The Texas National Guard, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and other Texas personnel are acting on that authority, as well as state law, to secure the Texas border.
Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden is letting the equivalent of a full army division to cross our border every day. If that’s not an invasion, there is no such thing or even word as “invasion”.
Border Patrol agents don’t want to cut Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s border wire after the Supreme Court ordered that the federal government can take it down, National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Now, how obedient are joe’s Border Patrol Agents?
Will they, like good Nazis, tear down the razor wire anyway?
Will joe have to bring in trannies from the US military who will do whatever he says because he controls their meds?
Well, he’s loyal to them, isn’t he? Doesn’t Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden always have their back?
It will be a classic Mexican standoff.
