Despite Abbott hinting he'll ignore Supreme Court order, history shows he'll ultimately cave
Gov. Greg Abbott insinuated Monday on social media that he'll ignore a U.S. Supreme Court order clearing federal agents to cut concertina wire the state deployed along the Rio Grande as part of the his Operation Lone Star border crackdown. After the high court's 5-4 vote, Texas Department of Public Safety spokesman Chris Olivarez announced that the Lone Star State would "maintain its current posture in deterring illegal border crossings by utilizing effective border security measures," including reinforcing concertina wire and anti-climb barriers along the southern border. Abbott quickly retweeted Olivarez's statement.
