While journalists and pundits are busy debating the fallout from the Republican primary,
00:00:34.520
the real battle for the future of America is occurring on the Texas border with Mexico.
00:00:39.400
The Biden administration has enacted a malicious open borders policy,
00:00:43.700
welcoming millions of illegal aliens into the country and facilitating a full-scale invasion.
00:00:49.520
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has attempted to stem the tide by deploying razor wire
00:00:53.600
and authorizing state law enforcement to arrest foreign trespassers.
00:00:57.200
Federal border agents have responded by cutting the wire so that an unrestricted flow of completely
00:01:02.620
unvetted migrants can continue to enter the country illegally.
00:01:06.920
Abbott has taken the unprecedented step of expelling the Border Patrol from the region of Eagle Pass,
00:01:12.200
where many of these illegal crossings took place,
00:01:14.840
but now the Supreme Court has ordered Texas officials to stand down.
00:01:18.120
The time has come for a leader like Abbott to defy the illegitimate ruling of the court
00:01:23.820
and defend the citizens he has sworn to protect.
00:01:30.520
If the current population doesn't reliably support the ruling class,
00:01:34.000
elites can simply import a new population to dilute the influence of the old one.
00:01:38.000
The left has been clear about its intention to transform the United States through immigration
00:01:43.780
and eliminate any support for the political opposition by bringing in a dependent class of low-wage workers.
00:01:50.220
The Biden administration not only welcomes these illegal aliens,
00:01:53.560
but it also buses and flies them deep into the country, where they will never be found.
00:01:58.800
There have been at least 8 million illegal aliens encountered at the border since Biden took office,
00:02:04.440
which is roughly seven times the population of Montana.
00:02:08.980
Mass immigration brings with it crime, disease, poverty, drug addiction, and human trafficking.
00:02:15.220
Even sanctuary cities like New York are finally realizing the incredible cost of open borders,
00:02:20.640
as Mayor Eric Adams displaces entire schools full of children to house illegal immigrants,
00:02:26.180
and the state's legislature commits billions of dollars to subsidize their health care.
00:02:31.420
While the fiscal and social impacts of this invasion are devastating,
00:02:35.940
the existential threat posed to the American political process is the most urgent concern.
00:02:42.580
Democrats are welcoming a wave of illegal immigrants larger than the population of several red states
00:02:48.200
and are seeking ways to turn them into legitimate voters.
00:02:52.340
The normalization of mail-in ballots and the rejection of voter identification laws are clear efforts to enable fraudulent voting,
00:02:59.080
but even if that doesn't work, Democrats will have succeeded in transforming the voter base for generations.
00:03:05.100
It's now clear that the immigration problem will not be solved at the federal level.
00:03:11.400
Republicans have paid lip service to border security for decades, but they've betrayed the voters at every opportunity.
00:03:17.100

Wi-Fi available to airplane members on equipped flights.
00:03:48.320
Large corporate donors prefer cheap labor, and the press can manufacture children in cages headlines all day long,
00:03:54.820
making it easier to simply turn a blind eye to the devastating impact that the immigration invasion is having on the heartland.
00:04:01.240
If the GOP were an actual opposition party, it would take the left's efforts to alter the machinery of democracy more seriously.
00:04:13.420
Republicans are the outer party, Democrats are the inner party, and no one is interested in protecting Red America.
00:04:19.640
The truth is that the GOP is embarrassed by its predominantly white supporters and is just as eager as the Democrats to swap them out
00:04:27.880
for a voter base that would meet the approval of the New York Times editorial page.
00:04:32.940
Donald Trump managed to win the presidency on his promise to build the wall and seal the border,
00:04:37.420
but came up short after facing resistance from both parties.
00:04:41.520
Immigration numbers under Trump were significantly lower due to tougher enforcement policies, but his changes were short-lived.
00:04:48.000
Congress refused to fund the president's wall, even though lawmakers would later find over $100 billion to protect the border of Ukraine,
00:04:56.180
and all of Trump's gains were wiped out as soon as he was forced out of the White House.
00:05:00.500
The Uniparty and the entrenched Washington bureaucracy want the border open,
00:05:04.800
and it will stay open unless individual states take action.
00:05:09.000
Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Cohn and Barrett once again have betrayed the conservatives
00:05:14.420
who put them on the court and affirm the Biden administration's right to facilitate an invasion.
00:05:19.620
Greg Abbott must defend the citizens of his state and the nation against a hostile regime.
00:05:25.700
The Chief Justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.
00:05:29.560
The governor must defy the Supreme Court's ruling and continue to protect the border.
00:05:34.100
Democrats refuse to comply with immigration law all the time.
00:05:37.560
There's no reason a Republican governor should follow this malicious order.
00:05:42.760
Make the federal government send agents for the express purpose of opening the border and allowing illegal immigrants in.
00:05:49.700
Have Texas law enforcement meet them at the border and turn the federal agents around as soon as they arrive.
00:05:56.200
The optics would be an absolute disaster for the regime, especially in an election year.
00:06:01.660
Force the Biden administration's hand and set an example for every other conservative governor.
00:06:09.300
Defend the nation and exercise the kind of self-government on which the United States was founded.
00:06:15.800
A desperate nation, drowning in the financial and social costs of mass illegal immigration,
00:06:21.460
is crying out for leadership, and Abbott can be the man of the hour.
00:06:25.200
The governor's defiance of the Supreme Court would be far more important than any piece of legislation or election,
00:06:35.760
The future of the United States rests entirely on the willingness of one conservative governor
00:06:41.340
to tell the federal government to go pound sand.
00:06:45.720
Greg Abbott is uniquely positioned to make history and defend his country.
00:06:58.360
I wrote this piece on Tuesday, and I am happy to say that Greg Abbott passed this test with flying colors.
00:07:05.540
In a stunning display of courage and leadership, the governor did indeed tell the federal government
00:07:11.800
to go pound sand, doubling down, deploying more razor wire, and continuing to keep his guard at the border.
00:07:19.320
Very importantly, Greg Abbott also released a statement explaining the legal justification for his actions
00:07:26.900
citing Texas' constitutional right to defend its own borders against invasion when the federal government refuses to do so.
00:07:34.800
I'm also very happy to tell you that as of recording this video,
00:07:39.760
the governors of 15 other states including Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Virginia, Oklahoma, and Louisiana
00:07:47.680
have declared their support for Texas' right to defend its own borders,
00:07:52.880
and some states, like Florida, are even sending people to help Texas.
00:07:57.260
In fact, Ron DeSantis has been doing that for years.
00:07:59.920
So yeah, always nice to be pleasantly surprised and find out that some GOP governors actually have a spine.
