In its coverage of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s recent trip to the White House, Fox News acknowledged the shift on display. Where the Biden administration threw open our borders, and fought Texas’s attempts to enforce the law, the Trump administration is embracing Abbott’s actions.
Abbott’s deputizing the Texas National Guard to help the Border Patrol is just the next logical step. “It would be hard to find another governor who has done more to support, and help implement and endorse, Trump’s hardline border security and immigration agenda,” Fox News reported.” Texas, under Abbott’s leadership,” the article continued, “has spent billions of dollars on border security the past couple of years under Operation Lone Star. And this week, Abbott, in an unprecedented move, gave Texas National Guard soldiers the power to arrest undocumented immigrants in coordination with U.S. Customs and Border Protection.”
