Democratic U.S. House members are accusing Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) of inciting #violence at the U.S.-Mexico border by using #bigoted language about a border "invasion" and encouraging a rightwing convoy to come to the region.
Around 200 vehicles carrying Trump supporters, Christian nationalists and #conspiracy theorists have descended on Quemado, Texas for a "Take Our Border Back" rally amid a standoff between Abbott and President Biden over immigration enforcement.
The Democratic congressional members, all from Texas, said Abbott is being irresponsible and is creating an environment for #violence instead of looking for solutions to fixing a broken immigration system.
Since Monday, the #convoy has made its way to the border to stand against migrants attempting to cross into the U.S. illegally or seeking asylum.
The convoy has been encouraged by some #Republicans and right-leaning #pundits who point to images of migrants trying to get into the U.S.The gathering was billed as a precursor to a ♦️civil war ♦️and promoted on 😱white nationalist online forums.😱
The Supreme Court's decision last month allowing the removal of #razorwire at the Texas border is a win for the Biden administration in the righteous battle over federal authority in the state.
Abbott last year installed miles of barriers using 👉barbed wire and 👉buoys along the Rio Grande in response to record numbers of migrants arriving at the border.
He has also sent the 🤡Texas National Guard 🤡to the region, a move that has generated accusations that the Guard is standing in the way of federal agents.
Federal attorneys cited the 🔹drowning deaths 🔹of a woman and two children in the Rio Grande as an example of how border agents, who were not allowed past a fence installed by Texas, weren't able to do their jobs and respond to the incident.
Images from the convoy showed a largely peaceful gathering that was well short of the promised 70,000 trucks, though #Confederate and #white Christian #nationalist flags were on display.
"Gov. Abbott understands by now that when he calls this an invasion that he's putting a target on people's backs," Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) said Sunday in a press conference.

A #SouthDakota tribe banned Gov. #KristiNoem from a reservation over her #USMexicoBorder remarks
By TRISHA AHMED
February 3, 2024"A South Dakota tribe has banned Republican Gov. Kristi Noem from the #PineRidgeReservation after she spoke this week about wanting to send #RazorWire and security personnel to #Texas to help deter immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border and also said cartels are infiltrating the state’s reservations.
“'Due to the safety of the #Oyate, effective immediately, you are hereby Banished from the homelands of the #OglalaSioux Tribe!” Tribe President #FrankStarComesOut said in a Friday statement addressed to Noem. “Oyate” is a word for people or nation.
"#StarComesOut accused Noem of trying to use the border issue to help get former U.S. President Donald Trump re-elected and boost her chances of becoming his running mate.
"Many of those arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border are #IndigenousPeople from places like #ElSalvador, #Guatemala and #Mexico who come 'in search of jobs and a better life,' the tribal leader added.
"'They don’t need to be put in cages, separated from their children like during the Trump Administration, or be cut up by razor wire furnished by, of all places, South Dakota,' he said.
"Star Comes Out also addressed #Noem’s remarks in the speech to lawmakers Wednesday in which she said a gang calling itself the Ghost Dancers is murdering people on the Pine Ridge Reservation and is affiliated with border-crossing cartels that use South Dakota reservations to spread drugs throughout the Midwest.
"Star Comes Out said he took deep offense at her reference, saying the #GhostDance is one of the Oglala Sioux’s “most sacred ceremonies,' 'was used with blatant disrespect and is insulting to our Oyate.'"

The transformation of the city’s riverbank into a #militarized zone is harmful, residents said. Soldiers changed the #river’s flow when they bulldozed islands & pushed the land toward #Texas to keep #migrants from gathering on them. The #environmental costs & the amount of #erosion are still not known.
“They’re destroying the river…,” said Jessie Fuentes, who owns a kayaking & canoe biz but is nervous about taking customers out because of all the #RazorWire …beneath the river’s surface.

#SCOTUS has ordered #Abbott to allow #Border Patrol agents to remove or cut wire to reach the river & aid #migrants in distress. Abbott’s troops are installing even more wire. 25 #Republican governors recently signed a letter expressing their support for Abbott’s #rebellion, & #Trump is calling on states to join the standoff.

#Texas #NationalGuard Humvees carry rifle-toting troops & patrol newly erected gates to the municipal park previously used for family cookouts & Independence Day festivities. Tents, military trucks, heavy equipment & portable toilets dot the edge of a browning fairway. Along the riverbank, Gov #GregAbbott (R) has ordered the state National Guard to deploy coils of #RazorWire, rusting shipping containers & dirt-filled barrels to declare his state’s sovereignty.
