…the Biden administration has never stopped, blocked, detained or deterred illegal immigration so much as facilitated and accommodated it.

Texican standoff: Inside the only border spot where law is enforced

By Todd Bensman May 12, 2023

MATAMOROS, Mexico — For two red-hot weeks, this Mexican city across from Brownsville, Texas was the hottest spot for illegal immigration on the southern border.

But no more, thanks to a very unique, forceful and controversial Texas intervention that looks to become a long-term influence on national immigration policy.

…

That video of pell-mell unopposed immigrant entrances onto Texas soil evidently so rankled Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, I have been reliably told, that he finally ordered something many constituents had been pressing for since the border crisis began on Biden’s Inauguration Day.

He put state troopers and a tactical National Guard Unit on a kind of Maginot Line of concertina wire hundreds of yards long with orders to let not even one pass.

…

At the top, a coterie of Texas state troopers and National Guardsmen, all slung with weaponry, blocked their forward progress.

…

Texas will have no help from the Biden administration in any of these efforts.

One reason is because the Biden administration has never stopped, blocked, detained or deterred illegal immigration so much as facilitated and accommodated it.

In fact, the Texas operation in Brownsville threw a major monkey wrench into a stunning level of collaboration Biden’s DHS had worked out with its Mexican counterpart, as I detailed in exclusive reporting.

The Border Patrol would tell the Mexican immigration officers when to release the swimmers in a kind of “controlled flow” operation that was never made public.
