The Lone Star State possesses a ruggedness that can be traced back to names like Sam Houston, Davy Crockett, Mirabeau Lamar, Thomas Jefferson Rusk, James Fanin, William Barret Travis, and Jim Bowie.

This from frontpagemag.com.

This is the state that was first its own Republic and fought for its independence all alone.

Rough men stood on a field and dared the vaunted Mexican cavalry to “Come and Take It.” Texas is home to The Alamo, a sacred place embodying the purest definition of courage and honor. This is the place where men met at Washington on the Brazos in a windowless wooden cabin and wrote a Declaration of Independence, the only state in the Union with such. The San Jacinto battlefield is the site where Texas secured its independence, defeating Santa Anna and his army in 18 minutes.

The Regime has foolishly decided to take on Texas over an unconstitutional and treasonous undermining of national sovereignty.

[As noted in the title:] The federal government cannot disregard and abdicate an enumerated constitutional duty—Article IV, Section 4, the Guarantee Clause—and expect the States to have no recourse. The Founding Fathers understood that, hence enumerated the power to the States, Article I, Section 10, Clause 3, to take action ‘if actually invaded, under imminent danger, and without any admit of delay.’

Constitutional scholarship is not required

to be able to read and comprehend that.

The Regime has threatened to federalize the Texas National Guard and force them to comply with its unconstitutional actions of implementing an open borders policy.

This is not correct and constitutional

means for federalizing the National Guard.

Two examples of the correct—and constitutional—means for federalizing a National Guard:

 – In support of the 4th U.S. Infantry Division during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2002, the Texas National Guard was requested under Title X and they were activated.

 – Republican President Eisenhower federalized the Arkansas National Guard to enforce the desegregation executive order during the Little Rock School desegregation crisis. The SCOTUS had decided in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954 that the 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson decision of ‘separate but equal’ was unconstitutional. Arkansas Democrat Governor Faubus [—acting as liberals always have—] used the National Guard to prevent nine Black students from entering Central High School in Little Rock.

The Regime and the progressive

socialist left seek dictatorial tyranny.

All uniformed members of our Armed Forces take an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. There is no article, section, or clause in the Constitution that supports open borders and wanton illegal immigration.

Further, seeking to federalize the Texas National Guard to enable the continued flow of single military-aged males, illegally, into our Republic but not have them conduct operations to regain operational control of our border from the transnational narco-criminal terrorists—the cartels—is most certainly unconstitutional.

And why has The Regime remained silent about pro-Hamas terrorist groups holding violent marches in our nation? After all, Hamas is still holding Americans hostage and killed Americans on October 7, 2023.

[We the People] may deduce that [The Regime] is taking the next step in their willful, intentional, and purposeful undermining of our national sovereignty. They are going to use the military to enable the flow of drug, human, and sex trafficking.

Texas will not comply. In fact, the Texas National Guard will say to Biden or to anyone else from The Regime exactly as those men said on October 2, 1835, at Gonzales . . . “Come and Take It.”

This is a very bad hill upon which Joe Biden has chosen to die. As we say in the military, he has written a check that his butt can’t cash. He has elevated the issue of border security to an even higher position. As well, he is galvanizing what will be more than two-thirds of this nation against him, and his lawless, tyrannical, dictatorial, and unconstitutional administration. Texans will not idly sit by anymore and watch our safety, security, and sovereignty be threatened.

Don’t Mess with Texas.
