Texas Border Showdown

January 26, 2024

I am going to make a few predictions about what I think is going to happen between the Border Patrol and the Texas National Guard.

Scenario 1: The Border Patrol is ordered to cut the razor wire. In a last minute effort to maintain peace, the Abbott backs down. The border patrol cuts the razor wire, and the illegal immigrants continue to flood the border. Abbott continues to talk tough, but nothing else really happens. He postures and the whole thing becomes a non-issue.

Scenario 2: Other states, such as New Mexico and California, open up even more, making it less desirable to try an enter the country through Texas. In the end, it doesn’t matter. There’s a few miles of fence, but the flood of immigrants simply goes around them. The conflict goes away, Abbott talks tough, and the press pretends it didn’t happen.

Scenario 3: Other states send their national guard units to the border. Volunteers also stack the border as best they can. A long standoff begins until someone shoots. It won’t matter who started hostilities, the press will blame whomever volunteered to go. The skirmish will kill a few people on all sides, Border Patrol, National Guard, volunteers and illegal immigrants. It will be billed as January 6 Part II, or 9/11 times 1000. DHS, FBI and other alphabet bois trace phones, credit cards, etc, to arrest anyone who was there. More gun control will get proposed.

I don’t know which scenario will happen.
