CLOSE THE BORDER IMMEDIATELY!!
Amen brother!
Go on with your bad self internet tough buy. They're all valedictorians!
Everybody's saying close the border. Why don't we expand the border? That's what the Roman Empire did. They had problems at their border. They expanded their border. There was never really any wars on the inside of the country. They were all on the outskirts. Because the outskirts kept getting further out.😂 The only way we can guarantee piece through war. But if we continue to allow the barbarians, then we will go the same way as the Romans

@@xmrksthsptClose those borders!!
CRIMINALS DONT WANA GET ARRESTED???!!! .... WHAT A SHOCK !!!
Are the native Americans criminals also this is their land
It better side with Texas so America has a future. God Bless Texas and Governor Abbott!
🙏🙏Go Texas Governor Abbott 👍
Side with WEF or a geriatric presidential puppet?
I have enough brain to not choose one or the other corrupt side whose jobs are both to accomplish the same goal. Crazy shills.
But they're all valedictorians you racist!
Illegals saying our laws are illegal.... HUH...🤪
There was a man in the 1930s that knew what to do with thes kind of invaders
Time for Texas to secede and make its own federal government. FJB
It can’t tho
They need to make this a felony!
This is so backASSwards.
Illegally entering
Biden Administration don't care abs refuses to enforce deportation
Current corruption at the highest levels
Most of Texas is Private Land. If the Land is posted then without a warrant only Game Wardens can legally enter. So just beef up the punishments for trespassing.
Yeah totally. More laws saying the same thing in different ways will 100% accomplish the goal. Sheep
Preach it. @@KB-kp2oz
@@KB-kp2ozSadly I know you're correct
New laws aren't needed the laws on the books need to be enforced......we already covered this
If by any chance the fed rules against Texas.
Texas just needs to reword the law as a state trespassing law. Define it as any person anywhere in the state that is not a legal citizen or hold legal statys is a trespasser and make it a felony crime.
They don't have enough jails or prison to house 1.8 mill
Mexico does
@@bateseanderson2667 Easy fix. Build old fashoned prision camps with nothing but a cot to lay on and the minimum ammount of food to live.
@@FC-qe1wl do you honestly think prison camps would even remotely work in 2024
This is the United States of American a English speaking nation not a foreign speaking nation
Nah...Texas has always had spanish speaking residents..its part of our history man. Hell Mexicans helped the colonists in Texas fight Mexico and Santa Ana.
Close the border's! Close the border's! Close the border's!!!!!!
I hope this law passes
FJB FJB
How TF wasn’t this already a law? …. Anyone?
Wokosexuals ruining this country
lol I just asked that then seen your post.
STAND WITH TEXAS... WE ARE THE UNITED STATES... NOT ONE STATE
From Washington,State I stand with Texas 💯
Texas has the right to enforce federal law especially since the government is refusing to do so!
Title 42 suspended title 8 laws and authority used to deter and penalize illegal border crossing. The Right was using it to undermine legal asylum under 8 US code 1158. It also suspended 8 US code 1325; the misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty for crossing the border illegally. And 8 US code 1326; stiffer penalties for crossing the border after deportation That left out any legal penalty or deterrent for those crossing and stopped legal asylum, with few exceptions under title 42. Makes it difficult to enforce immigration laws when Republicans are fighting in court to undermine our legal enforcement. With title 42 suspending enforcement many immigrants re-crossed multiple times causing apprehension numbers to be inflated. The current rate of multiple returns was about 40% of border crossers.
We had a 11 year decline in southern border crossing to the lowest point in 50 years prior to Trump and his polices. By 2019 Trumps policies doubled the number of people crossing the southern border to 977,000. He only saw a reduction for the first 9 months of 2020 due to covid, before it went back to a 20 year monthly high in October of 2020. It has remained a 20 year high and increasing ever since under Trumps failed policies and Title 42.
@@scottfarner5100regardless of this small novel you wrote , asylum seekers MUST come through a LEGAL port of entry just like every other human being , not undocumented and not through someones back yard ,we are in conflict with other nations and we do not need an accumulation of sleeper cells sneaking in as 125 people on the international watch list have already tried to cross at the border , only 19 people were responsible for carrying out 9/11 think about 125, its a big security risk to the nation not having a secure border , you got kids ? Family ? It only makes sense to have as much security as possible in these uncertain times
I mean why not just fire a warning shots at the border? Or bring some wild bears and maybe some gators from Florida to secure the border
100% ...and some snakes & wolves
There's already some gators in that river..
lol
I guess you watch a lot of action movies?
I love you 💕
I thought it was a crime anyway.
Yes it’s a Crime to cross Illegally into our country for the Grand River.
Due to false claims of voter fraud, asylee’s not showing up for court, criminal activity, and just right wing claims used to breed hate. The Right has unilaterally decided to undermine legal asylum. And have dubbed it as an open border policy and fed that buzz word to a right wing base who have no understanding of immigration laws. Trumps zero tolerance policy to separate children, Remain in Mexico, Title 42. All attempts to stop legal asylum under US laws that have been in place for over 40 years. Yet now using it to trigger a base that is now openly full of hate on immigrants and this hate is now fed by GOP governors feeding off of that for votes from GOP supporters who immoral views support separating children as a deterrent, use of lethal force, lying to immigrants to ship them to dem cities to stick it to libs, incarceration, placing them in the hands of traffickers. All because of immigrants who may or may not have violated a misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty. And the Right wing base just does not understand our law. Trumps immoral policies were violating US law by snatching children from legal asylum seeks as a deterrent. Harris was never appointed as border czar. There are no 85000 missing children and no they cannot use their drivers license to vote. The Right does nothing but lie.
It’s a federal crime because it’s federal responsibility. States should never have to deal with this garbage, so they never needed laws for it.
We stand with Texas
"If SB-4 becomes an active policy of this state it will signal to dozens of other governors from other states to do the same." Well, that sounds like a great plan to me. The governors get to do what's right for their state, especially when the federal government is unwilling to follow the Constitution.
Is it even a question?
At least something gets done.Take care of our country set back and do nothing 🇺🇸
Their first impression should not be that you can break the law without punishment.
The only thing unconstitutional these days is our politicians and our federal government if Biden would just do his job none this mess would be happening right now

That is not what Texas is arguing. Their point it that the federal government isn’t fulfilling their duties and the constitution gives every state the right to step in and take control under certain circumstances.
The people side with Texas!
The Federal Government doesn't exist to serve US citizens anymore so Texas needs to make this happen.
I hope they side with Texas, this has been so unfair to border states.
How was this not a thing already
In the real world, why would it take a Federal Judge to decide making "illegal" "ILLEGAL" and therefore a "crime"?
How does our government and all of these human right activists Organizations put so much time effort and money into people that are breaking the law and that are not even US citizens, but they will not do anything for their own people here in America. This makes me so sick.
Continue to fight governor of Texas for the American People's ✨
The fact that securing our border is a discussion tells you everything you need to know
Whatever Governor Abbott says GOES!!😂
Greg Abbott should be impeached
Nobody is following the law so who cares what a judge rules.
You don’t need a federal judge to make it a state crime…
Who's that little woman wearing a suit and tie that's squeaking into the microphone near the end?
Sympathizer
A Friend was jailed in Mexico over 50 years ago and was sentenced to pay thousands of dollars to get out. After the money was gathered but the amount kept going up.
Biden we the people of Americans had enough of your open borders retire already and let a new president in that loves our country and not hate it enough to destroy it
F.J.B. And his open border policy!!!
I AM WITH THE GOVERNOR WITH THIS ONE, ITS ALL ABOUT WHATS GOOD FOR THIS GREAT COUNTRY
$5 million dollars worth of Nile crocs would stop the swimming
Judges don't make federal law.supreme Court to interpret what laws already exist by congress.
If the president won’t uphold the constitution It is up to the courts and states to. These failsafes exist for a reason.
Trespassing on private property Means we CAN DEFEND OURSELVES!!!
Go get em Texas, my new favorite state.
How did it become RACIST? What would you do if someone enter your house without a permission or invitation? isn't illegal or home invasion! Do you call a Police to ge t them arrested or your OK with it, Texas has the full rights to protect their STATES against ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS by doing so it also protecting THE WHOLE COUNTRY, I STAND WITH TEXAS
Commies call anyone who works against their plans of ethnic cleansing a racist...
This femboi stands with Texas ✊
How you doin?
We need to write new laws TF bc clearly what's being done isn't enough nor is anyone trying to America America
Isn't it already a crime? Hahaha!
It need to be a state crime.
There shouldn't be any new laws..the original laws need to be enforced.
Why are just now doing this?
Don’t Mess with TX
You know I can't wait until TRUMP GET IN OFFICE AS PRESIDENT,,, BY ,BY TO ALL OF YOU EMIGRANT,S 😊😊😊😊
I HOPE TRUMP IS COMING SOON TO CLEAN THIS MADNESS AND SEND BACK ALL ILLEGALS
👍👍👍

Wow. Arrests for breaking the law?? Your kidding?
GOVERMENT ABBOTT YOU DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO PROTECTION IN YOUR STATE
The federal government has laws already the united states just doesnt have people in office at this moment who wants to enforce them
The laws of the united states has to be followed somewhere!
Isn't that what Illegal Means ? Illegally
Close border,before the south of the equator becomes empty,no doubt big corps will buy the barren land+the WEF will help turn it into mass farmland.jmo
THANK YOU GOVERNOR ABBOTT FOR DOING WHAT BIDEN AND THESE MAJORS DONT WANT TO DO TO PROTECT OUR COUNTRY AND US AMERICANS I SUPPORT WHAT YOU ARE DOING ABOUT OUR BORDERS SHOWS HOW MUCH YOU CARE AND LOVE OUR COUNTRY. GOD BLESS YOU 🙌 🙏
Do the native Americans have a say in this after all their land was srolen
Deport deport no bail no bail deport no bail deport
Judge had better say Yea if not lot of angry statesmen
Go Texas!
It is a CRIME !🐷
Instead of closing the border, we could expand the border. We won't have a border problem if the border moves. They wouldn't want to come here if we bring here to them. The Roman Empire did it for thousands of years. They had a problem at their border. They expanded their border. Push the fight and the problem further away from our homeland. That way the homeland stays safe.
The judge would have to be an idiot not to side with abbot!
Article IV of the constitution..
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on …Time for the administration to step up and fulfill its duties.
ILLEGALLY ..... Its in the name
Yeah, let's overwhelm already-overwhelmed American cities, and let in another 10 million over the next 3 years!
GREAT.....
Texas is doing the write thing are citizens need to come first
Keep up the fight just until November.
Simple Law even a monkey would get it if the meanings of Illegal & Imigant are taught to it 😂 WHY WE NEED A LAW LIKE THIS KNOWING U.S CUSTOM'S POINT OF ENTRY INTO THE U S.A. ARE FUNDED WITH OUR MONEY FOR A REASON 🧐 So many people who cross into the United States through legal entry using Customs Border Entrance into the U.S.A. are questioned and asked for legal forms of I.D. showing they have an issued pass IF NOT THEY ARE TOLD TO GO BACK WHERE THEY ARE TRAVELING FROM 🧐
I hope the judge side with Texas
Great job Texas ❤❤❤
CLOSE OUR BORDERS NOW. WE STAND WITH TEXAS
Need to import some salt water crocks!!!
Don't mess with TEXAS !!!
YEAH 😅
AND SO THEY SHOULD... ARREST THEM BUT SEND THEM BACK
Put alligators and piranhas in the water
The Constitution governs the people. The people are the government. Well, at least we're supposed to be. The states have just as much right to protect themselves as the people have a right to protect themselves, and the government has a right to protect itself. Because they are all supposed to be one in the same. 1:25
Piranha fish need to be introduced into the Rio Grande.
6 months of jail 6 months of free medical care
