Tuesday’s election was a signal for border-busting caravans to start their engines, according to a new analysis. Bill Melugin, a congressional correspondent for Fox News who has a long history of covering the border, noted on X that the first blow of a potential one-two punch landed Tuesday. [snip] “Understand the implications of what happened in Texas last night. Gina Hinojosa has called on Gov. Abbott to end state & local cooperation with ICE & she can order that on day one,” he wrote. Get ready for the new sanctuary State of Texas. The new TX governor is about to order TX law enforcement to stop cooperating with ICE and Border Patrol on that huge border. Biden Border 2.0 has been unleashed. — 🇺🇸 The FJC 🇺🇸 (@The_FJC) November 4, 2026 [snip] “Should there be another border crisis in coming years, there will likely be no resistance from Texas at the border. No Texas DPS, no TX National Guard, no razor wire or water buoys, and no Operation Lone Star, which Hinojosa called a ‘dog and pony show’ and ‘political theater,’” he wrote. Understand the implications of what happened in Texas last night. Gina Hinojosa has called on Gov. Abbott to end state & local cooperation with ICE & she can order that on day one.

No Texas DPS, no TX National Guard, no razor wire or water buoys, and no Operation Lone Star, which Hinojosa called a “dog and pony show” and “political theater”. Remember when 15,000 Haitians surged illegally into Del Rio, TX in 2021 under the international bridge? That was only stopped because Texas DPS responded on Abbott’s orders and physically blocked further crossings by lining up their cruisers to form a wall. The Biden Border Patrol was caught off guard and offered almost no resistance, except for some horseback agents who were falsely slandered for “whipping”. [snip] Melugin noted that Texas had been the only barrier in the Biden era when the border was treated as a sieve. “Remember when 15,000 Haitians surged illegally into Del Rio, TX in 2021 under the international bridge? That was only stopped because Texas DPS responded on Abbott’s orders and physically blocked further crossings by lining up their cruisers to form a wall. The Biden Border Patrol was caught off guard and offered almost no resistance,” he wrote. Texas Gov-Elect Hinojosa likely will pull most or all of Texas state police, Texas National Guard, and intelligence assets from the 1,200-mile Texas-Mexico border if she still believes her past policy positions. Today, Texas provides an important second line of defense backing up Border Patrol. Trump will need to compensate but should be able to hold the line against runners and drug smugglers. But in two years when he’s gone? Also don’t expect Texas cooperation with ICE to make arrests in a state with the second highest illegal alien population in the nation. — Todd Bensman (@BensmanTodd) November 4, 2026 Melugin noted that although President Donald Trump has developed and implemented strong border security policies, that could all vanish at the stroke of 2029. [snip] “Additionally, because Republicans failed to pass any legislation codifying President Trump’s border security measures,” he wrote. That means “if Dems take the White House in 2028, that Dem president could, if he/she wants to, reverse every single Trump border security policy immediately upon taking office because they were all done at the executive level,” Meugin wrote. [snip] If that happens, he wrote, look for the “Border Patrol to go back to a passive catch & release policy like we saw under Biden.” (*) Full article: https://www.westernjournal.com/star-fox-news-reporter-explains-one-midterm-result-particular-sets-stage-unprecedented-border-disaster/ Post navigation ‘DEI is back!’ screams California Dem after whining about losing tax vote he backed THE DOJ JUST EXPOSED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF POTENTIAL NON-CITIZENS VOTING IN CALIFORNIA ELECTIONS
