President Biden Urged to Seize Texas National Guard - Joe Manchin Calls for National Emergency

[Red State] On Wednesday, Representative Joaquin Castro (D-TX) called on President Biden to "seize" the Texas National Guard by calling them into Federal service, removing them from the command and control of the State of Texas. This is presumably in response to Texas Governor Greg Abbott's defiant tone towards the Biden Administration on closing the border.

A Texas congressman has urged President Biden to take the state's National Guard under federal control if Republican Governor Greg Abbott defies a Supreme Court ruling allowing federal agents to remove razor wire from a section of the U.S.-Mexico border.

The call was made by Democratic Representative Joaquin Castro after Abbott posted on X, formerly Twitter, saying the Texas National Guard would continue to "hold the line in Eagle's Pass," a popular migrant crossing point, stating: "Texas will not back down from our efforts to secure the border in Biden's absence."

Castro re-shared Abbott's post on his own X account, adding: "Governor Greg Abbott is using the Texas National Guard to obstruct and create chaos at the border.

As of this writing, there has been no action on this by the Biden Administration.

#1 The Deep State goal of a national emergency looms. A "Federalization" of the Texas National Guard could come at any moment, but will it hold ?

#2 Do it, and Abbott deploys the Texas State Guard which is NOT part of the national guard and takes no federal money nor must it submit to federal oversight.

#5 So Manchin wants the Biden Regime to declare an emergency over a crisis of their own making after which they can assume "emergency powers"? Right, Joe.... and the horse you rode in on.

#9 So the "Biden" Administration is more concerned about the Texas NG than he is letting hundreds of thousands of illegals into the country. Makes sense to me.

Meanwhile, legal immigrants (aspirants) to the USA must get the Fauci Flu clot shot.

Gee, I learned something: CIS says the clot shot "prevents" contracting covid-19.

#10 the clot shot "prevents" contracting covid-19.

Generally considered a respiratory illness.
Those not breathing won't get it.

Dissolve state and local governance. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regions are the solution.

Tennessee also has a state guard. I seem to remember a time when Tennessee volunteers went to help Texas against Santa Anna.

P2K has it exactly right - It is the State Militia, the Military Department of the State of Texas, not the National Guard that is installing the wire and guarding the border. They are NOT a federal entity in any respect. Hence, Posse Commitatus and conversion from Title 32 to Title 10 is not involved!

#20 Here's the thing, politically: if Biden were to nationalize the Texas NG in the area, He would own the crisis. Personally.
In living color, and no chance of ignoring it.
As it is, he gets to stand back and pretend somebody else is at fault.

#22 Biden will declare a crisis because a couple of miles of border is secure. Can’t have that.
