Officers working for Gov. Greg Abbott’s border security initiative have been ordered to push small children and nursing babies back into the Rio Grande, and have been told not to give water to asylum seekers even in extreme heat, according to an email from a Department of Public Safety trooper who described the actions as “inhumane.”

    not just that, it’s a 40 year problem at this point… Our ARCHAIC drug laws are to blame for literally all of it. Meanwhile Texas wont even consider legalizing marijuana in any way shape or form…

    This shit is by design and it’s the republicans of TX that helped design it.

    They are using this new “BIDEN DID THIS” messaging to try and get more of the border latino vote… Problem is, again, this is a 40 year problem at this point.
