Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has told a right-wing radio host that there’s only one tool the state isn’t using to stop migrants from crossing the border into Texas: gun violence, because it would prompt a response from the pesky federal government.

“The only thing that we are not doing is we’re not shooting people who come across the border—because, of course, the Biden administration would charge us with murder,” the Republican governor told former NRA spokesperson Dana Loesch on her radio show last week.

      Or Coloradans shooting Texans at the Oklahoma border.

      That little panhandle that Texas had to cede in order to join the union as a slave state could be the DMZ.

      A boy can dream, I suppose.
