Abbott is having State Troopers inspect the trucks after they cross the border.Texas does not inspect trucks, its the job of the US Customs and Border service. You didn't know that, Einstein?
most objections to illegal immigration have to do with driving wages down.
dems should care about working americans, but they don't.
So they took your farm worker job away from you

Democrats controlled all the ports on Earth two years ago? That sounds very far fetched to me.

Just the ones in the U.S. (except for those in Florida and Texas, which are operating at full capacity).
It is the same power California used to keep out the diseased carriers that trump tried to impose on them, and the same power we all wish Florida had used. The governor sets up a checkpoint just within the border, and can slow things down.
The alt right says it has been a success, but almost no one has been caught doing anything. That sounds like failure all over.
over the weekend I read an article where it was called 'enhanced safety inspections'................THAT is why governments at every level need to be severely limited................
That being said, I can see almost an entire forum full of lefties who would support these if it were an effort to stop gun 'trafficking'.................
A weeklong protest by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott against President Biden's recent immigration policy reached a resolution on Friday, but the gridlock it created has resulted in hundreds of millions of lost dollars and delays in shipments of everything from avocados to automobile parts that will have a longer-term impact.
Abbott's move, which Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller criticized as "political theater," ultimately created a logjam of trucks between the US and its largest goods trading partner. Vegetable producers say their produce is spoiling in idling trucks and they are losing hundreds of millions of dollars.
What used to be a routine border crossing turned into a 30-hour wait for some trucks. Meanwhile, the fruits and vegetables in those trucks spoiled, leaving some produce department shelves sparse or empty in advance of the holiday weekend, he said.
"It could take a week or longer, up to probably three weeks, before the supply chain realigns," Galeazzi said.

There are many reasons to have to do enhanced safety inspections. The problem here is that Abbot is just doing it for political showmanship. We would endanger us all to take away reasonable government powers just because Abbot should not be governor.
Fentanyl is more dangerous than guns to Americans.That being said, I can see almost an entire forum full of lefties who would support these if it were an effort to stop gun 'trafficking'.................[/QUOTES]
If it were reasonable, then yes. But it probably would not be reasonable. It is important to remember that guns go the other direction, so it is conceivable that Mexicans will start to slow down trade in revenge for Abbot's actions.
Actually, they are not, but I will give you an idiot pass.

Excuse me, but can you show the board what possible power or authority that Abbot has at border crossings and checkpoints?????
And they should.
