Texas Governor takes action to secure state's border

The podcast episode discusses how Texas Governor Greg Abbott has taken steps to secure the state's border due to the federal government's failure to address the issue. Abbott's actions have drawn support from 25 other Republican governors who accuse President Biden of neglecting his duty as commander in chief. These efforts include sending state troopers and National Guard troops to assist the Texas National Guard in guarding the border. Makeshift barriers made of shipping containers and razor wire have been set up along the border to prevent illegal crossings, and crossings in certain areas have significantly decreased. However, migrants continue to attempt to cross the border, sometimes endangering themselves and their children.
