While blue locales are busy attacking ICE facilities and doxing ICE agents, Texas is mobilizing the National Guard to help ICE deport illegal aliens.

Texas has reportedly eased off of arresting illegal aliens and charging them with criminal trespassing as the federal government assumes responsibility for border security operations.
Maybe there’s less need now that they’re not crossing the border in such huge numbers.
Operation Lone Star is now expected to be refocused from securing the southern border to assisting with mass deportations.
Texas National Guard troops were previously activated in June to maintain order during statewide protests against federal immigration enforcement efforts.

Weirdly, Texas is a state where the government follows the law and works for the benefit of actual citizens, not shadowy transnational conspiracies bound and determined to import as many illegal aliens into the country as possible.
It must be very frustrating for those who saw Biden’s illegal alien invasion as the key to finally turning Texas blue…
