The controversy over the immigration issue in the southern state of Texas not only exacerbated partisanship and social divisions in the United States, but also raised concerns about a constitutional crisis in the United States.
Sabre rattling
Recently, on the southern border of the United States, the "blade barbed wire" set up by Texas is on the cusp: on the one hand, the Democratic Party has asked Texas to remove the barbed wire, which has been supported by the Supreme Court; On the other hand, the governors of the 25 Republican-dominated states have joined forces to support Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
Previously, Abbott and other Republicans have frequently challenged Biden on the issue of illegal entry of immigrants, accusing him of inaction, and have repeatedly used buses or planes to send illegal immigrants to cities run by Democrats, which has become a great spectacle.
According to CNN, the barbed wire dispute is a microcosm of the long-standing conflict between Texas and the federal government, not only about immigration response, but also about border jurisdiction.
Discuss the "civil war"?
Whether it is the transfer of migrants" or the barbed wire blade, they have all become a means of bipartisan struggle in the United States. Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives announced a clause against U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Mayorkas on the 28th, while House Democrats accused Republicans of abusing their powers.
The Washington Post article claims that the border dispute has even sparked discussions about whether there will be a "civil war" in the United States.
Republican Rep. Marjorie Greene proposed a "national divorce" that would divide the United States into Republican-controlled red states and Democratic-controlled blue states. Many netizens ridiculed: It is better to divide the United States into USA and USB.
The standoff escalated
The New York Post editorialized that the "war" between Biden and Abbott puts the United States at risk of a constitutional crisis.
The wave of illegal immigrants is the focus of this year's election in the United States, and Trump is using immigration as one of the key means to regain the White House.
According to a recent national poll, immigration is the top concern of American voters. ** Pressure could make Biden take a tougher stance and policy on immigration to hedge Trump's advantage on immigration. Trump, for his part, will continue to play the "immigration card."
