  1. It's infuriating to think about how ridiculous, wasteful, spiteful, and illogical Operation Lone Star is. Petey Feng deserved better.

    From the article it doesn't sound like any of his former employers attempted to help Petey.

    Leslie Brenner should be on the top of the Texan of the Year list for 2026. dallasnews.com/opinion/texan-o

    “In 2021, the state of #Texas launched a multi-billion dollar initiative to stop #asylum seekers from stepping foot in the #US, called #OperationLoneStar, erecting hundreds of miles of razor wire, floating buoys and other barriers. Meanwhile in #Mexico, the number of troops on its northern #border doubled by 2022.”

  5. Should the federal government pay back border states like Texas for money they independently spent on state-led border security and immigration enforcement efforts? Gov. Greg Abbott and several elected officials in the Lone Star State think so.

  7. @Scotter @pattykimura @GottaLaff #OperationLoneStar was a PR stunt, a humongous flop, a loaning of #TXNG as rental security for big landowners, cronies of Nazi On Wheels, Abbott. It was marked by corruption, grift and disgraced early retirements of officials and officers.

  9. Confirmed press, an investigative reporter AND a major newspaper, both looking at different aspects of the story, regarding the developments at #CampBlanding.

    The area being used had been intended for #FLNG cooperation with #texas (no capitals, thanks) #OperationLoneStar when DeathShittis sent hundreds of FLNG soldiers to help with the scam of "guarding the border". The area, back then, was being eyeballed for a "camp" (ahem #ConcentrationCamp ) to keep any "illegals" (undocumented people, humans) for "processing".

    My hope is, enough exposure and leaks may bring sufficient heat upon the various entities involved in this highly illegal use of Federal resources, that they back away from it, and a concentration camp does not happen nearby,

    Fuck every MAGAt christofascist piece of shit ethnonationalist.

  15. The case is one of several #legal battles between #Republican #Texas Gov #GregAbbott & the #Biden admin over the governor’s #border crackdown, “#OperationLoneStar”.

    …Even though #immigration & border #security matters are generally the purview of the #federal govt, #Abbott has mobilized thousands of #NationalGuard troops & lined the banks of the #RioGrande near Eagle Pass w/ razor wire to try to block illegal entries.

  17. TEXAS LEGISLATURE
    ‘CIVIL AND HUMAN RIGHTS DISASTER’: TEXAS WANTS TO SEIZE IMMIGRATION AUTHORITY FROM FEDS

    House Bill 4 would turn local police into border enforcers—with new unchecked power.

    November 7 Update: Amid Republican infighting between the leaders of the state House and Senate, House Bill 4 died as both chambers adjourned sine die on Tuesday without the bill having received a full Senate vote. Governor Greg Abbott promptly announced an additional special legislative session, starting Tuesday evening, including a call for a measure like House Bill 4 to criminalize illegal entry and reentry and authorize “the removal of illegal immigrants from Texas.” In response, lawmakers filed identical versions of an updated bill titled, respectively, House Bill 4 and Senate Bill 4.

    🥥 Dear #Legal Eaglz,
    Is sadist and #Texas governor #GregAbbott in any danger of legal action for the death of a 3-year-old girl aboard a bus dispatched from his state as part of #OperationLoneStar?
    Asking as an American who views the Abbott regime as Nazi adjacent in its naked use of bad laws to perform crimes against humanity.
    Civil action? Reckless endangerment? Wanton disregard for human life? Depravity? Trafficking?
    Bueller, Bueller? 🥥

    I’ve announced a $50K reward for info on the criminal who killed 5 illegal immigrants Friday. Also directed #OperationLoneStar to be on the lookout.

    I continue working with state & local officials to ensure all available resources are deployed to respond.
