Is the biggest American story of the 21st Century developing?

  Immigration Stupidity  US Feral Government



Yes, we've been wrong before. Peak Stupidity has a topic key People's Revolt of 22 with, count 'em, only 3 posts using the key*. I thought those Kung Flu vaccine protests, the highlight being the great Canadian trucker protests in Ottawa would start protests of all sort by the remaining sane free-thinking people of the world. Didn't happen... by a long shot. The media is a HUGE force, and it put the kibosh on coverage of further events - there was an American trucker protest of sorts, but it got only small-website coverage.

Therefore, I'm putting no money down on this, but the recent clashes between the State of Texas and the US Border Patrol, very obviously Patriots vs Traitors respectively, does have me wondering if this will be the start of a way out, a means of reasonable peaceful separation of many American people from the Potomac Regime. We discussed this on Saturday in a post basically lifted from VDare, but with our commentary and hopes - Is this how it starts?.

We were referring to the start of a real conflict between Feral Authoritah and the attempts by the States - Texas here - to protect the country from invasion. (This could carry over to protection of the country from mandated insanity by the Feral Gov't, as far as BLT-G++, financial stupidity, and other ruinous programs of cultural destruction.)

Will there be an official secession by Texas anytime soon? No. This fairly localized conflict in which the Federal BP has been sabotaging Texas efforts to stop the immigration invasion seems like it will lead to a bigger clash, as (thankfully, as far as Governor Abbott goes) neither side is backing down. VDare had more on this story today. It was the writer "Federale" who brought up the enraging story of the BP cutting through the Texan-laid razor wire on the US side of the Rio Grande - not just cutting it, but doing this in spots to specifically let in illegal aliens waiting there. Then, it was A.W. Morgan with better news (again, reported more initially by one Tod Bensman of the Center for Immigration Studies) that Peak Stupidity discussed on Saturday. Now, Federale is back with the post The War On Texas’ Border Security Actions Is Beginning.
While there is much about Greg Abbott that is more hat than cattle, he has stepped up his actions to secure the border in the last month. Miles of concertina wire and barbed wire fencing have gone up and for the most part illegal aliens who approach the fencing are not being allowed in. However, the alien smugglers are developing a new tactic, deploy infants, children, and pregnant women in the water in front of the fencing, at great risk of death, to force Texas officials to cut the fencing themselves to allow in the illegal aliens to receive medical treatment.

Texas is deploying shallow watercraft to discourage this strategy by preventing illegal aliens from wading the river, but the smugglers, the Biden Regime, and the Lying Press have decided to make deaths of illegal aliens, shameless baby waving, part of their strategy to stop Governor Abbott’s policy to hold the line on the banks of the Rio Grande.
Unlike during the time of the actual secession in the 1860s, Media is not just a daily newspaper but it's an ubiquitous part of almost everyone's life now. The Lyin' Press arm of The Regime is being used to start a new "dead baby on the beach" campaign. Peak Stupidity readers will likely recall that European disaster in which one dead baby, dead due to his being trafficked across the Mediterranean Sea, was used as an excuse to allow a multi-million man, errr, refugee invasion of Germany and the rest of Europe. It's the kind of thing that can happen in a Matriarchy only.

That's the tactic being used at this point in this border skirmish between Feds and Texans. One Ben Wermund is part of the Regime's Lyin' Press are implementing this.
Not mentioned in the story is that the illegal aliens had the option to not illegally enter the United States. However, the Lying Press reporter, Wermund, appears to have an agenda. The Jewish resident of Washington, DC, the Washington correspondent for the Chronicle and self-admitted Texas expatriate, has written before about barbed wire on the Rio Grande, a strange story for a Washington correspondent. Wermund is also hyping the political reaction to his stories, hardly the behavior of a disinterested and responsible reporter without a political agenda.
Federale, on our side (that's just his handle), notes:
If anything, these illegal aliens should be arrested for child endangerment for dragging their children across a river, when they could just obey the law or just avail themselves of the Biden CBP One App Amnesty or just present themselves at the Port-Of-Entry to get in.

Clearly this strategy of putting themselves in danger is a ploy by the Biden Regime and the open borders advocates to get some dead bodies to trumpet and force Governor Abbott to back down.
Further down:
The Big Lie is that no one is being “pushed into the river,” much less a child. The illegal aliens are just being told to return to Mexico. No one can be “pushed” across a yard of concertina wire, it is just not physically possible. When the troopers us the word “pushed” they just mean refusing to let the illegal aliens in. Just another example of the press just lying for political purposes, of which Wermund is a classic example of the Lügenpresse.
There's a lot more in the article about what's going on down there at the Rio Grande. Backing up a little bit, Federale speculates:
The good news is that Governor Abbott and his troops are taking action, but clearly more is necessary and they need to prepare for attacks from the Biden Regime, likely arrest of Governor Abbott for violating the civil rights of illegal aliens.
He was a Fed (or maybe still is), but I don't think this is the way it will go down. Yes, that WOULD surely be a big story, the arrest of a Governor by a FED, putting Federalism to a big test. I think it will be underlings, those Guardsmen (other States have sent men too) or local law enforcement that resist this Fed sabotage that will be arrested. At least attempts will be made. That's when it could get dicey. That's when it could turn into a real battle between the Potomac Regime and America.

That would indeed be the biggest American story of the 21st Century, bigger than the PanicFest and bigger than the Black!/Commie rampages of '20 and much more heartening.


* We do have a few other keys with slim pickings, also new ones, but it is the case with those that the old posts have never been back-filled with some (5 or so) of the more recent topic keys.

PS: Thanks, J1234. About the rank and file democrats, I don't really know. I see the rank and file now as the hard ctrl-left, who are just fine with destroying traditional America. Those in Martha's Vineyard, say, or more importantly, in NYC, really never thought that Governors Abbott and DeSantis would do these sort of things.

They are just fine with the damage to anywhere in fly-over country. Even the D's in fly-over country don't care how trashed their districts are getting from the invasion. After all, more poor illiterate masses will just help them in the voting and apportioning, and those rich developers or meat-packing-plant owners may donate too.

Of course, if pressed by constituents, they'll say something else that sounds patriotic, but I don't think they are working for any constituents...

You may have a different opinion from your location - I'd like to read it. (If you want, wait for the next post on the immigration invasion. It won't be too long. ;-}

PS - I think illegal immigration/open borders will eventually become bigger than abortion in dividing America into factions. OTOH, I also think that the last two year's immigration "crisis" in Martha's Vineyard and Eric Adam's NYC are revealing: they show the shallow commitment that rank and file Democrats actually have to open borders (i.e., they aren't very committed.) Right now in the US, we have what could be called the politics of space - as long as there's enough space left for "progressives" to move away from areas blighted by their foolish policies, they'll continue to promote such policies.

PS

Well, the Texas Governor’s mansion wouldn’t go up as quite quickly as the Branch Davidian compound, so they probably wouldn’t take as much joy incinerating a guy in a wheelchair as they did torching wimmin and chilrun.

PS Folks shouldn’t put much faith in Texas leading the charge. Non-Hispanic whites are now a minority of the population. (Not that they’d revolt if they weren’t, but the Mexican invaders sure aren’t going to be defending the Alamo.)

PS: True, Alarmist. However, at the higher levels, the Feds will do what it takes to keep any State from not just humiliating the Feral Gov't but more importantly for them, not succumbing to their authority.

I don't know what the next move would be. Would the Fed send down a bunch of National Security Services, errr, I mean FBI men as a show of force? I don't think they'll try arresting the Governor, but then too, I think Governor Abbott would flinch first anyway. He's been flakey in the past.

PS

Practically speaking, there’s little stopping Texas Rangers from arresting federal agents for destruction of propert. It would certainly make unwelcome headlines for the Feds if CBP, caught in the act, decided to make a show of force to resist arrest.
