Governor Greg Abbott has responded to Joe Biden and it seems his answer is: stick it.

Basically, it narrows down to: 'I've sent you letters, I've tried talking to you and you keep ignoring me so I am taking matters into my own hands'. Honestly, who could blame Abbott?
Amazing that the only Republican with the balls to actually stand up to Biden is in a wheelchair. https://t.co/nsHKFeEMAm

Well, to be fair, he isn't the only one, but he is certainly one of the few.
This is the right position. You have my full support to do what is necessary to protect Texas. #SecureTexas #HoldTheLine https://t.co/Ud40XMO8qQ

A Congressman from Texas weighed in with his support.
The Chief Justice and Justice Barrett should have thought through their rushed, weak, mindless, and unexplained capitulation to Biden’s brazen open-border lawlessness.

We now have a serious and dangerous constitutional crisis.
Shameful. https://t.co/pVvA4I7yql
The expected help from the Supreme Court never came.
Sure seems like we have arrived at a far bigger legitimacy crisis than anything that happened under Trump, January 6 included, and it's 100% Biden's fault. Even governors and politicians are outspoken about the insanity of his border policy, and yet he persists. https://t.co/wqijcqcFQt

People are really considering giving Biden another four years. It's insanity.
BREAKING from TX Gov. @GregAbbott_TX on TX right of self defense:
— Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) January 24, 2024
“James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and the other visionaries who wrote the U.S. Constitution foresaw that States should not be left to the mercy of a lawless president who does nothing to stop external threats.” https://t.co/MI5XJNDaYm
Abbott is saying in essence, the forefathers would not have allowed, this nor will I.
Every Republican governor should be issuing statements standing with Texas.

Can you send this man to arrest Biden now? https://t.co/fxq4D52FCM pic.twitter.com/BDDE67y5NT

'Walker, Texas Ranger' could solve it all and in less than 30 minutes.
The third point about Biden's lawlessness encouraging illegal aliens to make dangerous crossing away from safe passages is one not enough people are noticing. https://t.co/3Sz3H7z5RL

You won’t get @NatConTalk for another couple days but note for reference that Abbott here is relying on the Scalia dissent I cited as well https://t.co/U2uLzFCt58

This reads like the founders' grievances against the king. I love it with every fiber of my being. https://t.co/xRTAmTQCCm

It's getting 'lit' at the borders, as the youths say. Keep your eye on the border.
