Texas is refusing to comply with a cease-and-desist letter from the Biden administration over actions by the state that have impeded U.S. Border Patrol agents from accessing part of the border with Mexico.

In a letter to the Department of Homeland Security, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton rejected the Biden administration’s request for the state to “cease and desist” its takeover of Shelby Park, an epicenter of southwest border illegal immigration in Eagle Pass.

“Because the facts and law side with Texas, the State will continue utilizing its constitutional authority to defend her territory, and I will continue defending those lawful efforts in court,” Paxton wrote.

    Man, you’re all over the map. First it’s civil war, now you want to talk about the climate. Finish the topic in front of you, I’m just responding to what you’re saying.

      We are heading towards a polycrisis. Many crises simultaneously resulting in, hopefully, the downfall of human beings. America is a bullshit country that will probably have a civil war soon, adding to the polycrisis.

      The limits to growth is an analysis of economic and societal trends, that predicted we’re bound for catastrophe around the 2030s, and when it was revisited with updated data, found that we were not only on track for collapse, we were early on certain aspects, not even taking into consideration the climate.

      Check it out it’s an interesting read.

        I’m not disagreeing that this is happening. You are off topic. You wished for war, war is horror, it will bring untold suffering and it will be awful. That’s it, that’s the whole point.

        Everything else will be at least as bad because it’s even more suffering, yes. Stop wishing for the acceleration of any part of this.

          Yeah war sucks. Guess what else sucks? America lol. You haven’t figured it out peacefully, so you’re going to have a civil war again. I’m not wishing anything, I’m stating a fact.
