Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick warned President Biden against taking action against the Texas National Guard on the southern border, as Texas has refused to vacate the Eagle Pass region.
Patrick emphasized that confronting law enforcement or the National Guard at the border would be a mistake for the Biden administration.
Numerous states have expressed support for Texas and pledged to send their own national guard personnel and equipment to assist.
“The biggest mistake the Biden administration could make would be confronting law enforcement or our military, our National Guard, at our border, at this park, when we’re actually doing the job that the American people want,” Patrick said.
“So if they come down and create a situation, all of America already knows now, they will clearly see that the Democrats are willing to take on a state that is operating under our constitutional the Democrats are willing to take on a state that is operating under our constitutional right to protect our people.”
Former President Trump has also announced his support for Texas and red state governors in their efforts to halt the flow of illegal aliens across the southern border.
“When I am President, on Day One, instead of fighting Texas, I will work hand in hand with Governor Abbott and other Border States to Stop the Invasion, Seal the Border, and Rapidly Begin the Largest Domestic Deportation Operation in History. Those Biden has let in should not get comfortable because they will be going home,” Trump said.
The Biden Administration has given Texas 24 hours to allow Border Patrol agents access to a public property in Eagle Pass, which Texas has refused.
