Conflict is escalating as factions prepare for an imminent internal conflict, signifying a potential domestic war.
In a significant show of solidarity, several U.S. states have expressed support for Texas in its ongoing border dispute with the Biden administration. The latest developments come as Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared an invasion under the Constitution, citing the failure of the federal government to secure the southern border.
Texas's right to defend itself has found a strong advocate in Virginia's Governor Glenn Youngkin. Youngkin has publicly criticized the Biden administration's handling of the border, stating that Texas has the right to protect its sovereignty.
Oklahoma's Republican Governor, Kevin Stitt, has also publicly supported Texas. Stitt posted footage of Texas National Guard troops on social media, accompanied by the caption "Oklahoma stands with Texas."
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who has previously expressed support for Texas, has offered personnel and assets to help Texas defend itself against illegal immigration. DeSantis has also argued that if the Constitution made states powerless to defend themselves against an invasion, it wouldn't have been ratified and Texas wouldn't have joined the union when it did.
Montana's Governor Greg Gianforte has echoed similar sentiments, accusing President Biden of inviting cartels, illegal drugs, and human trafficking into the United States by refusing to secure the southern border. Gianforte has also expressed support for Texas's border actions.
South Dakota's Governor, Kristi Noem, has voiced her support for Texas's actions, stating that the Biden administration's policies are putting the American people in danger and compromising national security. Louisiana's Governor, Jeff Landry, has pledged his support for Texas and Governor Abbott, advocating for legal immigration and secure borders, and asserting states' right to protect their citizens.
The support for Texas extends beyond these states. Illinois is preparing deployments of National Guard troops, and Republican-led states like West Virginia, South Carolina, and Ohio have sent National Guard units to support federal initiatives, publicly committing to enhanced border security measures.
However, not all governors have publicly supported Texas. Alabama's Governor Kay Ivey has declared her support for Texas, expressing frustration with the White House's handling of the border situation, but it is not yet clear how her administration plans to back Texas.
The U.S. Supreme Court has sided with the Biden administration's open border policies, ordering Border Patrol agents to remove razor wire installed by Texas to protect its borders. This decision has sparked further debate about the role of states in enforcing border security and the limits of federal power.
As the border dispute continues, it remains to be seen how these states will continue to support Texas and whether other states will join the cause. The issue is a contentious one, with many liberal politicians siding with the Biden administration, possibly due to the president's open border policies adding individuals to the Democrat party's voter base. Despite this, the show of solidarity from these states underscores the deep divide in opinions regarding border security and the role of the federal government in enforcing it.
