Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) expressed enthusiasm for the shift in the United States prioritizing its border security, adding that the state of Texas is proud to “partner” with President Donald Trump’s effort on this.

Abbott, appearing on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo, detailed how the nation’s previous leadership under former President Joe Biden contrasts sharply with the “sudden and swift” change that Trump enacted on his first day in office, which has seen illegal border crossings drop “dramatically.” The governor also cited how Texas is working with Trump’s administration, stating that the state deployed more buoys into the Rio Grande “on the hour” that Trump took office.
