Must Watch: Greg Abbott Orders National Guard To Do What Biden Refuses To Do

Texas state law enforcement officials are going to send illegal migrants apprehended in the state back to the southern border, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told Newsmax on Thursday.

''On top of building a border wall, on top of deploying the military to the border, on top of laying down razor wire, [Thursday] we announced that every illegal immigrant that we encounter we are returning to the border,'' Abbott, a Republican, announced on ''The Chris Salcedo Show.''

The federal government is responsible for enforcing immigration law, yet Abbott has mobilized his state to do the work that he explained the federal government has failed to do.

''Joe Biden has an open border policy where he wants all these illegal immigrants to come into the United States, and we're sending a message to everybody who goes through this incredible struggle, to get across the border that, by God, if they're going to be apprehended by Texas law enforcement officer or Texas National Guard member, they're going to be taken right back to the border.''

Illegal crossings are at or near the highest levels in roughly two decades. On the Texas border, U.S. authorities barred migrants from crossing unlawfully 523,000 times between January and May, up from 417,000 over the same span a year ago.

Abbott has put the blame on the Biden administration and spent more than $3 billion in state funds on a massive border security apparatus. Though the state operation has not stopped the flow of migrants.

''As the challenges on the border continue to increase, Texas will continue to take action to address those challenges caused by the Biden administration,'' Abbott explained to The Associated Press.

Abbott stressed that the priority remains to stop migrants who enter the U.S. illegally from coming to Texas, a process he calls turn-backs, yet the influx of mass illegal migration eventually still renders go-aways.

''The fact of the matter is there are so many that are coming in now because of Biden's open border policies that we will not be able to turn back everybody,'' Abbott explained to host Chris Salcedo. ''Some people will make it across the border. Those who do make it across the border, we're going to take right back to the border.''

The statement arrives two days after former Trump administration officials and sheriffs in many south Texas called on Abbott to declare what they have called an ''invasion'' and use extraordinary powers normally reserved for war. Their plan involves a novel interpretation of the U.S. Constitution to have the National Guard or state police forcibly send migrants to Mexico.
