 During a campaign event, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott joked about building a wall between Texas and Oklahoma to stop the spread of the “radical woke, left agenda.”

The event took place Feb. 15 in Lumberton, Texas, to support Janis Holt, a Republican running for the Texas House of Representatives, according to Newsweek.

While addressing supporters, Abbott noted “challenges” that Texas faced, which included the “radical woke, left agenda that we see crisscrossing the United States, and even coming across the border of the Red River.” The Red River creates part of the border between Texas and Oklahoma.

Abbott continued by joking, “I’ll get around to talking about the border, but some people say, ‘Abbott, you need to build a border wall on the border with Oklahoma to stop all this stuff from coming in.'”
