Yesterday, Governor Greg Abbott announced he would build a base camp in Eagle Pass to facilitate up to 1,800 - 2,300 National Guards. Abbott said its meant to improve the National Guards quality of life and save Texas money.
Texas taxpayers have spent over $12 billion on Abbotts border stunts in the last three years, none of which have impacted migration flow.
Yet, the border lies have continued. Republicans call immigration an invasion, and they call every immigrant illegal. Then, they take money that comes from the pockets of hard-working Texans to throw away on political stunts that fuel extremists and have cost people their lives.
Texans should be angry that our tax dollars are being thrown away like this. Texans should be angry that our government is working for the TV cameras instead of the people. And Texans should be angry at this latest stunt, as this base could quickly rack up another several hundred million more dollars at taxpayer expense.
Now, Texans should be concerned about the implications of Abbotts new military base in conjunction with Trumps new mass deportation plans.
