American Military News by Timothy Frudd January 12, 2024
The Texas National Guard has seized control of a public park located near the southern border between the United States and Mexico, marking a new step in the state’s ongoing fight with the Biden administration over border policies.
According to Bill Melugin, a Fox News reporter, the Texas Military Department confirmed that the National Guard took control of Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, Texas, this week and began restricting federal officials from accessing the park. The Texas Military Department claimed federal immigration authorities “perpetuate illegal crossings” at the southern border.
Melguin reported that Texas set up fences and razor wire at Shelby Park to “block the area off from the public and federal government.” The Texas National Guard’s move comes as the Biden administration has engaged in efforts to remove the state’s barbed wire in the area that was put up to reduce illegal border crossings.

This should be a much bigger story than it is.
Indeed, it should be one of the top stories in U.S. news.
Finally... FINALLY... a border state has taken the matter of "enforcing the border" into its own hands.
This would not have been necessary if the DCommunist federal government did the job -- but of course, the fed position is 180 degrees the opposite.
So... it's setting up a confrontation, as important to today as was Ft. Sumter in 1861.
When the going gets tough -- as it will, with the insertion of U.S Army troops into the mix -- will Texas (and Texans) still be willing to stand tall behind "that line in the sand", as they did at the Alamo so long ago...?

How about being unlike The Alamo enough to not get overrun?

You ain't jokin' Fish. One of those potential pivotable points in the history of Nations where you can look back and say 'that's where it started'.
