Highlights
Biden is ignoring the law and sending feds to take down the razor wire set up along the borders.
Abbott invoked Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3 of the Constitution, arguing that the U.S. is being invaded.
Some call for Texas to secede from the U.S. Texas was its own country back in the 1800s when it was founded.
Once illegal immigrants get into the country they can go anywhere they want. Do states have rights or is the president the king?
When you are a Democrat it depends on who is in power.
Dems are terrified that illegal immigrants will hurt themselves trying to get through the wire.
If it was left up to the Dems, they would replace the wire with silly string.
The border is a line separating 2 areas. You are not supposed to cross that line without permission.
Think of the rubber chains at the supermarket that separate your groceries from the guy behind you. It clears up what is yours and what is mine.
Going into an election year this will be a bad look for the Biden administration. Abbott is putting up the fence. He will keep cutting it down all year?
They are literally cutting holes in the border wall. Is this more proof that the federal government wants to flood our country with illegal immigrants?
Putting up the razor wire while someone else taking down is the microcosm of the whole election debate. I am talking about the government. One side is hear me and the other side is stupid.
If you live long enough you will turn into a hypocrite every 3 years.
That's what Joe should do. A trans-non-binary person of color to cut the razor wire.
They will hire a commission to investigate why the wires not cooperating. Everyone knows that razor Bob wire was made during white supremacy. There will be a whole racial investigation of the systemic racism of barbed wire.

ALERT.
>> [LAUGHING].
>> Greg: SINCE THEN JOE LEARNED
TO IGNORE A LOT OF THINGS LIKE
THE BORDER CRISIS AND HIS EXTRA
GRANDCHILD AND THE STAIN ON THE
FRONT OF HIS PANTS.
IT'S NOT A BATTLE BETWEEN
AMERICANS AND MIGRANTS OR
REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS.
IT'S A FIGHT BETWEEN A BLOATED
POWER HUNGRY GOVERNMENT AND
STATES THAT GET SCREWED.
GREG GUTFELD AND RON DESANTIS
ARE SENDING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
TO BORDER STATES TO OTHER
STATES.
DEMOCRACY KEEP TOUTING SANCTUARY
CITIES.
BUT THEN THEY REALIZE THESE
PEOPLE WANT TO STICK AROUND.
ALL THEY DO IS WHINE ABOUT THE
OVERFLOWING MIGRANTS.
LIKE BARTENDERS AT LAST CALL.
YOU DON'T WANT TO GO HOME BUT
YOU CAN'T STAY HERE.
I THINK OF IT AS REVERSE
SOCIALISM.
LEFTY'S DEMANDS TO SHARE OTHER
PEOPLE'S RESOURCES.
NOW IT'S TIME TO SHARE THE PAIN.
MARTHA'S VINEYARD SHIPPED THEM
OUT FASTER THAN AMAZON PRIME.
YESTERDAY ABBOTT SAID THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT BROKE THE
COMPACT BETWEEN THE UNITED
STATES AND THE STATES.
THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE U.S.
HAS A CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY TO
ENFORCE LAWS ON THE BOOKS RIGHT
NOW.
PRESIDENT HAS VIOLATED THOSE
LAWS.
HE SMASHED RECORDS FOR ILLEGAL
IMMIGRANTS.
YES, THAT WAS A LOT OF WORDS.
ABBOTT INVOKED ARTICLE 1,
SECTION 10, CLAUSE 3.
EXACTLY WHAT YOU SAID, KAT, OF
THE CONSTITUTION.
ARGUING THAT THE U.S. IS BEING
INVADED AND A STATE HAS A RIGHT
TO ACT ON IT.
NOT ONLY IS BIDEN IGNORING THE
LAW HE IS SENDING FEDS TO TAKE
DOWN THE RAZOR WIRE SET UP ALONG
THE BORDERS.
THAT'S LIKE PAINTING HELP
YOURSELVES ON THE GARAGE DOOR.
THE SUPREME COURT RULED THAT
BIDEN COULD DO THAT.
BUT ABBOTT VOWS TO PUT THE WIRE
BACK UP AS FAST AS FEDS TAKE IT
DOWN.
THE COURT IS NOT ORDER TEXAS TO
DO OR NOT TO ANYTHING.
BUT BETO O'ROURKE CALLS THIS
A VIOLATION OF LAW.
WITH HIS TRACK RECORD THE ONLY
CONTEST HE HASN'T LOSS YET IS
MISS BLACK AMERICA OF 2024.
>> OH!
>> [APPLAUDING].
>> Greg: DEMS ARE TERRIFIED THAT
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WILL HURT
THEMSELVES TRYING TO GET THROUGH
THE WIRE.
IF IT WAS LEFT UP TO THE DEMS
THEY WOULD REPLACE THE WIRE WITH
SILLY STRING.
SORRIY YOU [BLEEP] YOU DON'T
DEEP OUT INVADERS BY-LINING THE
BORDER WITH SHEETS.
I NEVER WALKED PAST AN AUTO
REPAIR SHOP AND THOUGHT IF I
CLIMB THROUGH THE BARBED WIRE I
CAN PLAY WITH THAT FRIENDLY PIT
BULL.
THE BORDER IS A LINE SEPARATING
2 AREAS.
YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO CROSS
THAT LINE WITHOUT PERMISSION.
EVERY COUNTRY HAS THEM.
THINK OF THE RUBBER CHAINS AT
THE SUPERMARKET THAT SEPARATE
YOUR GROCERIES FROM THE GUY
BEHIND YOU.
IT CLEARS UP WHAT IS YOURS AND
WHAT IS MINE.
IT KEEPS ONE AREA DISTINCT FROM
ANOTHER.
IF YOU DON'T THINK THAT'S
IMPORTANT LISTEN TO DEMOCRATS
BITCH ABOUT CULTURE
APPROPRIATEION.
YOU CAN COME OVER HERE BUT DON'T
WEAR A SOMBRERO ON CINCO DEMAYO.
THEY ARE HOPING TO REPLACE DON'T
MESS WITH TEXAS WITH BEND OVER
FOR BIDEN.
SOME CALL FOR TEXAS TO SECEDE
FROM THE U.S.
THEY HAVE THE EXPERIENCE.
TEXAS WAS ITS OWN COUNTRY BACK
IN THE 1800'S WHEN IT WAS
FOUNDED BY CCTOP.
ARE WE ON THE BRINK OF ANOTHER
CIVIL WAR OR WILL GRANDPA JOE
JUST TAKE A NAP?
ONE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS GET INTO
THE COUNTRY THEY CAN GO ANYWHERE
THEY WANT.
DO STATES HAVE RIGHTS OR IS THE
PRESIDENT THE KING?
WHEN YOU ARE A DEMOCRAT IT
DEPENDS ON WHO IS IN POWER.
>> LOOK, I AGREE WITH THAT GUY
THAT WAS GOOD IN THE MOVIE THE
JOKER.
I WENT TO SCHOOL WITH THE REAL
JOKER.
I BEAT HIM IN ARM WRESTLING.
THERE WON'T BE A TEX-IT.
THEY WILL CALL IT TEXACO.

CIVIL WAR LIKE THE ONE YOU LOVED
SO MUCH?
>> [LAUGHING].
WELL, GREG, I AM SO GLAD YOU GOT
THE REFERENCE.
WHEN I SEND IN JOE BIDEN VIDEOS
YOUR YOUNG STAFF IS I DON'T GET
THE REFERENCE.
GREG WILL GET IT.
>> Greg: YES!
>> THIS IS AMAZING.
GOING INTO AN ELECTION YEAR THIS
WILL BE A BAD LOOK FOR THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION.
ABBOTT IS PUTTING UP THE FENCE.
HE WILL KEEP CUTTING IT DOWN ALL
YEAR?
THEY ARE LITERALLY CUTTING HOLES
IN THE BORDER WALL.
IS THIS MORE PROOF THAT THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WANTS TO
FLOOD OUR COUNTRY WITH ILLEGAL
IMMIGRANTS?
IT WILL BE A VERY BAD LOOK.
I AM NOT WORRIED OR ANGRY AT
TONY BARRETT.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
>> Greg: THEY DIDN'T EXPLAIN IT
WELL.
>> NO, THEY DIDN'T.
I GUESS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
HAS THE RIGHT TO CUT THE FENCE
DOWN AND TEXAS CAN KEEP PUTTING
IT BACK UP.
LET'S SEE HOW THAT LOOKS FOR THE
NEXT YEAR.
>> Greg: JAMIE, YOU ARE USED TO
PEOPLE TELLING YOU TO KEEP OUT
OF THEIR LIVES.
DO YOU SEE TEXAS AND AMERICA
HEADING TO A DIVORCE MUCH LIKE
THE ONE YOU EXPERIENCED?
>> OH!
>> [LAUGHING].
>> HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I WONDER WHICH SIDE WILL BE LIKE
MY WIFE AND WHICH SIDE WILL NOT
GET ANYTHING?
>> [LAUGHING].
>> SINCE BIDEN HAS BEEN TALKING,
WHEN I WATCH TOM DO BIDEN, IT'S
NOW LIKE BIDEN IS DOING AN
IMPRESSION OF TOM.
>> Greg: THAT'S TRUE.
>> [APPLAUDING].
>> MY UNCLE LIVES IN TEXAS.
HE SAID IT'S CHAOS DOWN THERE.
HE IS AGAINST ILLEGAL
IMMIGRANTS.
HE OWNS A SHOP THAT ONLY SELLS
RAZOR WIRE.
RAZOR LOOK AT MY RECORD, I HAVE
ALWAYS BEEN IN SUPPORT OF
CLOSING BORDERS.
ALWAYS BEEN A BARNES AND NOBLE
GUY.
>> I SAW THAT ONE COMING SO FAR
AWAY.
>> THE WHOLE THING IS UPSETTING.
IF WE ARE GOING TO PUT AN OLD
GUY IN IT OFFICE WHO BETTER TO
YELL GET OFF MY PROPERTY THAN
JOE BIDEN.
>> Greg: PUT RAZOR WIRE AROUND
THAT JOKE!
>> OH!
>> Greg: KAT, WHERE DO YOU STAND
ON IN?
YOU ARE A STATES RIGHTS LADY?
>> THAT WOULD BE INTERESTING WAY
TO LOOK AT IT, THE 10th
AMENDMENT.
>> IT COMES AFTER THE NINTH.
>> Greg: THANK YOU.
[LAUGHING].
>> SO CLOSE.
THE 10th AMENDMENT SAYS ALL
RIGHTS BELONG TO THE STATES.
NOTHING TALKS ABOUT MIGRATION IN
THE CONSTITUTION.
THAT WOULD MEAN THAT THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO
DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
I WOULD LIKE TO SEAT 10th
AMENDMENT MAKE A COME BACK.
PUTTING UP THE RAZOR WIRE WHILE
SOMEONE ELSE TAKING DOWN IS THE
MICROCOSM OF THE WHOLE ELECTION
DEBATE.
I AM TALKING ABOUT THE
GOVERNMENT.
ONE SIDE IS HEAR ME AND THE
OTHER SIDE IS STUPID.
THE SYSTEM IS COMPLETELY BROKEN.
IT'S HARD TO COME HERE LEGALLY.
LOOK AT THE BORDER.
I DON'T NEED TO SAY MORE ABOUT
THAT AND JOE BIDEN SAYING OH,
NO, ON SANCTUARY CITIES AND THE
POLITICAL CLIMATE CHANGES AND
YOU SAY SOMETHING ELSE.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE
CARE.
>> Greg: HE'S BEEN ON EVERY SIDE
OF EVERY ISSUE.
IF YOU LIVE LONG ENOUGH YOU WILL
TURN INTO A HYPOCRITE EVERY 3
YEARS.
TYRUS, 25 STATES SUPPORTING
ABBOTT.
IS THERE IS A CIVIL WAR.
WILL WE BE ON THE SAME SIDE?
>> NOT IN FIRST 8 MINUTES.
I HAVE TO PUT HANDS ON YOU.
I THINK IT'S A WONDERFUL IDEA
THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS
GOING TO COME IN AND TAKE OUT
THE RAZOR WIRE.
I WOULD LIKE TO BE SENT THERE ON
AA SIGNMENT.
ALL I NEED IS A CAMCORDER TO
RECORD THE MAN IN HEELS HOLDING
HIS YORKIE WILL BE HILARIOUS.
UNDERSTAND WHO HAS BEEN WORKING
WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
SOMEONE WILL BE UP THERE.
I AM THE FIRST WHATEVER TO CUT
THIS THING.
THEN 4 HOURS LATER THEY ARE THE
FIRST PERSON TO DIE OF
AFFIXIATION BY CUTTING THESE
WIRES.
PLEASE DO!
>> Greg: THAT'S WHAT JOE SHOULD
DO.
A TRANS-NON-BINARY PERSON OF
COLOR TO CUT THE RAZOR WIRE.
>> THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT IT WILL
BE.
THIS IS THE BURN.
THEY WILL HIRE A COMMISSION TO
INVESTIGATE WHY THE WIRES NOT
COOPERATING.
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT RAZOR BOB
WIRE WAS MADE DURING WHITE
SUPREMACY.
THERE WILL BE A WHOLE RACIAL
INVESTIGATION OF THE SYSTEMIC
RACISM OF BARBED WIRE.
I WILL BE FINE.
