Texas Governor Greg Abbott is receiving support from former President Donald Trump, who is urging states to send National Guard members to assist in securing the southern border. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick joined the discussion and addressed concerns about potential violence erupting between states and the federal government.
Lieutenant Governor Patrick expressed confidence that the Biden administration would not confront law enforcement or the military along the border. He emphasized that Texas is operating within its constitutional right to protect its people and this country. Rather than seeking confrontation, Texas officials aim for the federal government to fulfill its duty to secure the border and protect Americans.
