Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s recent actions regarding border security have sparked controversy as he continues to defy federal authority. Despite a Supreme Court order favoring the removal of razor wire along the US-Mexico border, Abbott remains steadfast in his commitment to protect Texas from what he labels an “invasion.” This defiance reflects a broader trend of Republican state officials challenging federal mandates, raising concerns about the balance of power between state and federal governments. Abbott’s refusal to comply with federal directives underscores the complexity of immigration policy and the ongoing struggle for authority between state and federal entities.
