That whole thing is awful, but there are plenty of pictures. It’s not like it’s a media blackout, they’re just not letting federal agents come in and remove it.
They had these floating bouy things wrapped in razor wire that I believe went all the way to the bottom of the water. You could definitely see them. You would certainly get gravely injured if you tried to traverse them.
The feds ordered those removed. I’m not sure if they did remove them or not.
The SCOTUS ordered it removed, because it was floating into the Mexican side of the river (effectively making this an illegal trespass onto foreign soil). The Texas state response was to deploy more buoys and dare someone to stop them.
It’s in the ground, in the Texas side. But it is referencing a couple people who drowned on the Mexican side a couple weeks ago. Mexican authorities found the bodies, a couple hours later they notified the US about it. The CBP then blamed it on The Texas razor wire, as if they could have saved them if it weren’t for the wire. After the facts came out, they were long dead, so it fizzled out of the news.
Texas and Mexican border. Whole fiasco is happening there right now
Is the wire hidden under the water, like a trap, or 8s it very obvious an plain to see.
Neither are good, obviously, but one is infinitely more horrifying than the other
We don’t know because we can’t get access to it because the Governor is threatening secession, literally, not figuratively.
What we do know is that it had led to at least the death of a mother and child, very likely many more.

They also prevented CBP from rescuing people from the river.
It’s barbaric.

When you’re so far Alt-right that the Heritage Foundation wet-dream SCOTUS isn’t even on your side…
It wasn’t their fault. No one remembered to buy Thomas or Alito a new boat
Looks like it’s along the edge of the water. You can’t get out or get help if something goes wrong with your crossing.

Never let a good crisis go to waste. Politics.
