Love you Abbott 🇨🇱
Texas has the duty to protect the border
No body make them have to cross illegally
Where do they keep getting all these 1B checks😂 print me one please and thank you! Ok maybe 99M!💲
So the kayak business owner do not have enough water to use?? 🤔
BUILD THE WALL Y’ALL
imagine an invading country complaining to the country they're invading that they're making it too hard to invade 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
China paid Joe millions to keep Americas border crisis going
Dumbest wasted tax
Biden open border crisis
Lol! Because people cant swim a foot under? They cant get a raft and jump over? Cut the cable with a cable cutter. Id crawl up in between…waste of money
The whole country is going to look like Houston soon. God help us
Woke DeSantis & Abbott uses tax-payer Infrastructure and Covid funds to send migrants from another state to another state.
America doesn't need drug dealers coming through the border. It already has Americans dealing on every block, in every town, in every city.
America Bombed: Cuba 1959-60, Dominican Republic 1965-66, El Salvador 1981-92, Guatemala 1954, 1960, 1964, 1967-69, Nicaragua 1981-90,
Panama 1989-90, Peru 1965. Have these migrants forgotten the butchers of their past?
Waste of money. The immigrants are jumping it like nothing is there🤣🤣
These people are not immigrants they are illegal aliens and they have no right to be in the USA anywhere not just Texas
Has STUPID Abbott ever hear of people can swim. A great resting support when migrants tired. All he is doing this is for political reasons. U
Will never be president. !!!ar
Just curious..I wonder if this governor could act like a politician and work on a plan with Mexico to have manufacturing jobs in China get relocated to Mexico or other migrant countries…to stave off migrants coming to the US? And maybe also negotiate with farmers in Texas /Florida to have work permits for migrants to come work their fields?
Naw! I reckon it would take skillful & intelligent governors to do that!
Abbott is the best governor 🙏🏻
Happens invest in police freedom family all brother and sister and Family All Mexico government family all investment in police free happens family all Mexico government family all investment in family all companies and airport in Export family all investment in peace happens family all history Family All Happy PEACE OK THANKS PEACE
This shall make it safer to cross that part of the river:
Notice the metal straps make nice hand-holds, so you can rest up before swimming under!
This will save lives.
A foot under the water level? Nobody can overcome these barriers…
Texas finally takes personal responsibility for its borders
now start prosecuting the Texans who employe the states millions of illegals
good idea but alligators is a better and cheaper one.
When you have billions you could spend on welcoming and housing those fleeing violence and danger…. but instead find every excuse to cause more pain…
It’s an attempt to stop ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, where is the problem???
Not taking sides here, just gonna state the obvious:
This is a huge waste of money.
Build that buoy
RFK is my President
Good, us Texans want this.
Isn’t that a rest stop?
Greg Abbott is a slow thinker a fast moving oak tree got the drop on him 😄😆🤣
