I'm beginning to think that President Biden's election may have been a very good thing. It's making states wake up and take back their sovereignty

It is interesting that under Dem presidents, States seem to remember and assert their independence and sovereignty. Wish it would continue.

A few issues with the idea of a state border wall

1. Previous private efforts failed due to allegations of fraud (Steve Bannon)
2. Wall needs to consider private land owners whose territory will be cut by the structure
3. Texas has greater issues of privatized power grid failures with heat cut off during previous winter and electricity unavailable during summer

Texas governor's not-so-new idea: a privately funded border wall

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) wants to collect donations for a privately funded border wall. This is not a good idea.

He has not decided on funding but most of the private landowners want it built from what I am hearing. The landowners are actually lobbying for the wall at the state Capitol. Probably not all of them but it seems like a critical mass.

SPC Erich Guenther - But then who will the Texas farmers hire to do their labor?

SPC Erich Guenther Funny considering they were fighting against the Federal government from taking their land away under trump.

Put Joe Arpaio in charge, if he’s still around.

Honestly, I thought Arpaio was deranged in the head was never a fan of his.

Joe Arpaio: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Donald Trump issued his first presidential pardon to the last person who should get one. John Oliver discusses the troubling record of former Arizona sheriff...

Not a fan of a convicted criminal who required Presidential pardon over racial profiling. During his term as sheriff running Arizona jails (temporary holding, not prison for actual sentence), Maricopa county also had to settle multiple lawsuits for detainee deaths from abusive conditions.
