GTFO. He's getting rightly raked because he took the coward's way out by pushing a position, and then claiming he was "too busy" to respond to the gaping holes in his argument, but conveniently not to

Dude, what? I've only been an observer on this one, but the guy came in with cherry-picked snippets from an absolute garbage source, refused to answer what he thinks the DHS or administration actually

So if I go into the football board, post some shit that is fabricated and/or grossly misrepresentative of a situation, mouth off about it, and then go running away while crying about how mean everyone

To do exactly what? Guard camps? Drive busses?

 

1) to cost stupid amounts of money, in order to

2) stand around with guns and do performative cosplay, which is such a consistent GQP fetish that I'm 100% convinced that it's one of their primary (but far from only) sexual deviancies.

It makes perfect sense if you remember that Greg is trying so desperately to get Trump's attention.
I've decided that every action Greg Abbott does makes sense if you add "because his dick doesn't work." to the end. Like adding "in bed" to fortune cookie fortunes.

"Greg Abbott ordered TNG to place razor wire along the border...

because his dick doesn't work."

It would cause millions of dollars in improvements

Then they would be calling for reconstruction funds from the Federal Government.

Wonder how much it costs a state to, on its own, activate a few hundred NG for a month to go stand around in South Texas.

Don’t worry, we will just underfund education for this pet project.

It’s been many years, but if you’re on state active duty, it doesn’t count towards your federal benefits, time in service, etc.

And on a side note, there are state national guard units that rotate through the border area all the time, in a federal mission.  I think it’s only for a few weeks or so. We were down along the border visiting relatives last summer and saw some folks from other states staying at the same hotel.  I’m guessing the State of Texas is not splurging for hotels.

Edit: friend mentioned this evening some are enjoying it because they are getting paid well for sitting on their asses and doing very little and are in hotels, but others with decent civilian careers, school, etc. are done.

He said some lower ranks are making $200 a day or more, are getting $500 a month hazardous duty, full per diem and if you volunteer to stay longer, you can pick up a $1,000 per month bonus.  Others are having problems getting paid, are stuck in tents or shelters,  and they are taking a pay cut from their civilian jobs or it’s screwing up their schooling.

He half-joked that if it keeps up, the majority of TNG will end up being 20 year-olds who are sitting on the border making $70,000 a year moving wire around or sitting on their asses while everybody else moves to a different state, gets out, or moves to the Army Reserve.

Damn, not the Army Reserve. Inactive Army Reserve is great, but the Regular Army Reserve? Those guys always reminded me of the army of some country on the borders of Colombia and Syria. Just sorta listless, watching the clock tick.

I had this post a couple years back when I visited a friend who was clerking for the federal judge in Del Rio

Over/under on how long before a few Cav Scouts (because it will be Cav Scouts) decide to take an off-day in Nuevo Laredo and one of them has a pistol in his pocket?

Or some blow. Maybe missing a kidney, but he got the blow and a blow job.

So let me get this straight, Kennedy Jr. would destroy the business model of the cartels, which is American consumers?  Because that's largely why drugs and hookers exist. The same applies to the American industries and businesses that employ immigrants under the table, because they can do that now without securing the border.  Just go bust some businesses and industries?  

Or maybe they'll adjust their child labor laws to allow 14 year olds to cultivate and harvest crops and hold down industrial jobs.  I mean what are the full-time benefit packages for 14-16 year olds?  Vacations?  Where would they go--they can't even drink?  Minimum wage is already shit in those states and healthcare is just more socialism.  No time like the present for the youth to learn valuable future job skills.   I can see farmers and processing plants lining up to pay top dollar for young teens to work.  OSHA smosha, we don't need no stinking laws, rules, industry standards, regulations, or taxes.  They'd employ even more poor and probably grow the military at the same time.  I'm sure the wealthy will send their kids to a factory floor to soak up some of this valuable experiences, in addition to school.

If the feds do nothing, then even more service members will become a problem in the future.  Police are kind of doing their own thing in a lot of places--do we need military personnel doing the same?  Why would they support a national cause rather than their own home state's deeply seated religious or recently changed laws to propel aggression?

The feds are supposed to say, sure it's alright to lock up women who may have had or sought an abortion, no matter the reason.  And what constitutes privacy inside of state lines from local and state governments?  Probably no longer need to integrate schools either, since states should be able to make up their own laws regarding education, assembly and the welfare of its citizens.  I mean, all the gun nuts that have been so worried about a slippery slope regarding their gun rights while furiously masturbating to Red Dawn for decades now, may finally get their opportunity to take on the government.  Because none of this stops at immigration.

And we recently had a fight regarding the right to limit the spread of misinformation.  How did that go and who does this aid?  I wish more Americans asked this question, along with dissolving federal protection agencies and deregulation.  And yet again, dark money now funds lawmakers, which is essentially US law.  The United States of America is on its way to fragmenting and it begins with allowing a few to continue their quest to destroy Democracy.

Yep, one of the meet up points for a caravan is the HEB in Dripping Springs. I think there is also a rally of some kind at One Shot Distilling on RR 12 in Dripping.
