"Texas Asserts Right to Self-Defense Against Federal Border Measures"

Texas Governor Greg Abbott asserts that the state's right to self-defense supersedes federal statutes in the ongoing battle with the Biden administration over razor wire at the US-Mexico border. This defiance follows a Supreme Court ruling permitting federal agents to remove the wire. Abbott argues that the state has the constitutional authority to defend itself due to the federal government's failure to safeguard Texas from invasion. Despite the ruling, Abbott pledges to continue deploying the razor wire to repel illegal immigration, as the state grapples with record-breaking migrant encounters at the southern border. The governor has clashed with the Biden administration over immigration policy and is testing the limits of state power to address the border crisis.
