People keep talking about “Federalizing the National Guard” and now you’ve got other States pledging their NG to Texas in defiance of the Supreme Court (see image).

So is this what CW2 looks like?

P.S. I’m a Brit

    I mean, all a politician has to do is say “I will oppose Bidens open border policy” and they’ll win an election.

    All Biden has to do is not allow an open border with Mexico, and he might have a chance of getting re-elected.

      Republicans are literally torpedoing a bipartisan bill because they don’t want Biden to get any good news on the border

      But let’s keep complaining how Biden isn’t doing anything

        He claims this legislation will give him the authority he needs to do something. Do you really believe the president of the United States doesn’t have the authority to take action in securing our borders?

        I’d like to see the text of this bill, because I don’t believe the White House is incapable of taking action and actually needs additional powers.

          I think the President should be able to do ANYTHING HE wants! That’s EXACTLY what the Founders intended!
