Texas' Abbott tears into federal official for saying climate change leads to border crossings

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott took a clumsy swing at U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday, blasting the White House official as "pathetic" for blaming the migrant surge, at least in part, on climate change. Abbott's insulting tweet came shortly after Mayorkas lambasted the Republican governor's border policies during an interview on MSNBC's Morning Joe. During the appearance, the secretary said global factors, not lax federal enforcement, prompted the current historic high in border crossings.
