Texas has recently faced a serious immigration problem, with a large number of illegal immigrants pouring into Texas across the U.S.-Mexico border, numbering nearly 10,000 a day. In response to the situation, Texas** took drastic measures, including signing bills making illegal border crossings a crime, authorizing law enforcement to arrest illegal immigrants, and erecting a tank-proof barbed wire fence along the U.S.-Mexico border. This sparked a standoff between Texas and the U.S. federal government**.
Texas Governor Abbott has shown a tough stance in the face of the immigration tide. Not only did he sign the bill, but he also ordered the Texas National Guard to pull up a defensive barbed wire fence that would not only prevent people from crossing the border, but also contain anti-tank functions. However, the U.S. Supreme Court's order to remove the fence through federal law enforcement agencies sparked a conflict between Texas and the federal government.
The U.S. Department of Justice asked Texas to remove the barbed wire fence on the grounds that it was bothering the Border Patrol's work. Despite the Supreme Court's adoption of this decision, the Texas National Guard refused to comply and even strengthened the fence. This led to an armed standoff between Texas and the Federation**, and the situation became increasingly tense.
Trump has publicly expressed support for Texas against Biden**, and it has the support of the governors of 25 Republican states. This support strengthened Texas' stance and pushed Biden to the forefront. The issue of immigration has become the focus of political battles, and the likelihood that Trump will use it to win more support in the election campaign is increasing.
In the face of the escalating border standoff, Biden **had to change**. Recently, Biden revealed that Republicans and Democrats are negotiating a border agreement, and once it passes the Senate, he will give the agreement emergency powers to close the border if necessary. This was seen as a compromise by Biden to avoid further crises, especially under political pressure during the election campaign.
At a time when infighting in the United States is intensifying, Russia seems happy to see chaos in the United States. Medvedev said that Texas could become an independent "Texas People's Republic", and the United States would be stuck in a long-term internal confrontation. Russia seems willing to weaken its hegemony through internal problems in the United States, making it more vulnerable.
The border issue has become an important issue in the US election campaign. Trump used the incident to gain approval in the election campaign, while Biden had to change his position in order to avoid political pressure amid domestic and foreign difficulties. The border issue could evolve into a key point for Republicans and Democrats to compete for support and will play an important role in the election.
The evolution of the entire border crisis could have a domino effect that would not just be a regional issue in Texas, but could trigger broader internal rivalries. At this moment when politics, immigration and other multifaceted issues are intertwined, the United States is facing an intensifying internal crisis, which is a warning that cannot be ignored for a powerful country.
