This is going to be like the Texians making their stand at the Alamo, only this time, help IS coming.

Fingers crossed.

Removed? He should have been hung by his nuts until he was dead.

The upside to all this illegal border jumping is that I should be able to get my front and back yard mowed for about 5 bucks this year.

I couldn’t stand using a condom so I played Risk and pulled out as a kid and adult!

I will say that I am surprisingly impressed with Abbott. I completely expected him to fold early.

He should cut off the electricity to all federal facilities in the state. He's got good experience cutting people's power.

The thing about the board game is that it's all about size of population (army). But look closer at the OP map. Where is the oil pumped from the ground? Where are the farms that make food, and lumber? Not so much in the blue states.

Cut off the flow of goods, and it's game over.

Abbott has called the bluff and 24 states are backing him up and NOW Biden has a political nightmare. A Fed vs state confrontation in an election year and nearly 1/2 the states against him. AND in an election year.
