Who do you think said this, when asked about the southern border and the issue of sanctuary cities?
“You have to have a federal government that can enforce laws. This administration has been fundamentally derelict in not funding any of the requirements that are needed even to enforce the existing laws.”
Would he allow cities to ignore federal law? “No.”
It may seem surprising, but that was Joe Biden — way back in 2007 during the George W. Bush administration.
In those days, the then-senator and candidate for the Democrat nomination for president was talking tough on sanctuary cities.
He warned that in these cities, stores ended up closing and the cities themselves became “dumpsters.”
So how can the same man — now in the position of president himself — have brought America to the state we are now in?
Just how bad that situation is was made clear this week with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s declaration.
Abbott’s Wednesday statement should be seen not as a fly-by-night news story, but as a detonation under the body politic of America. That he felt the need to do it tells us everything about the situation.
“The federal government has broken the compact between the United States and the States,” Abbott’s declaration began. “The Executive Branch of the United States has a constitutional duty to enforce federal laws protecting States, including immigration laws on the books right now. President Biden has refused to enforce those laws and has even violated them. The result is that he has smashed records for illegal immigration.”
The governor’s statement followed the US Supreme Court’s recent decision to allow federal officials to remove razor wire at the border installed by the state of Texas.
In other words, the Border Patrol will be actively removing protections put up by the state not just to protect the state but to protect the whole country, including sanctuary cities like this one.
