Border Showdown: Texas Defies Feds — ‘We Will Continue to Deploy Razor Wire’ (VIDEO)

The Texas Military Department says it will continue to “hold the line in Shelby Park” in their efforts to “deter and prevent unlawful entry into the State of Texas.” Under Operation Lone Star orders from Governor Greg Abbott, the Texas National Guard’s actions continue despite a second demand letter from the Department of Homeland Security to release control of the park seized by the State earlier this month. Governor Abbott pledged to continue deploying razor wire along the Rio Grande border with Mexico.

“We remain resolute in our actions to secure our border, preserve the rule of law, and protect the sovereignty of our State,” TMD officials wrote in a post on X.

Shortly after DHS officials issued a second letter to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton demanding accesses to Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, Texas, a defiant Governor Abbott posted, “We will continue to deploy this razor wire to repel illegal immigration.”

Photos posted on X show Guardsmen with riot shields standing along installed razor wire to keep migrants from crossing and illegally entering Texas.

Biden’s DHS Demands Texas Authorities Stand Down at Southern Border as Legal Battle Intensifies

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) urged Texas authorities in a letter Tuesday to relinquish their control of an area of the southern border that has been the epicenter of an ongoing legal battle.

DHS is demanding that the state allow Border Patrol full access to Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, Texas, in accordance with the law as the state maintains that it’s not backing down from its position, according a copy of the letter obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The Supreme Court ruled Monday that the Biden administration can take down the concertina wire Texas authorities erected to discourage illegal border crossings, but the next day the state began erecting more border wire.

The Biden administration on Jan. 12 accused Texas of blocking border agents from helping save three drowning migrants in the Rio Grande, which the Department of Justice (DOJ) later debunked in court filing admitting that federal authorities didn’t inform state authorities until after the drownings had already occurred.

The Biden administration subsequently sent a letter to Attorney General Ken Paxton on Jan. 14, saying that the state needed to give full access of the park to federal authorities by Jan. 17, according to CNN. By Jan. 17, Paxton sent a letter to the Biden administration, saying that the state wouldn’t back down.

“As you are aware, yesterday, the Supreme Court vacated the injunction prohibiting the Department from cutting or moving the concertina wire that Texas had placed along the border except in case of emergency, and restored the Department’s right to cut and move the concertina wire placed by Texas in order to perform their statutory duties. The Department must also have the ability to access the border in the Shelby Park area that is currently obstructed by Texas,” Department of Homeland Security Jonathan E. Meyer wrote to Paxton.

Tragedy Strikes as Delivery Man Fatally Beaten With Firewood by Naked Attacker (VIDEO)

A horrifying incident unfolded in Fort Worth, Texas, as a delivery man, 51-year-old Scotty Jackson, was brutally attacked and beaten to death with firewood by a naked assailant, 27-year-old Christantus Omondi. The shocking crime occurred as Jackson was delivering firewood to a residence, leaving the local community in profound shock.

According to court documents, Jackson had been hired to bring firewood to a home in Fort Worth in a U-haul. However, upon arrival, he was confronted by Omondi, who proceeded to attack him with pieces of wood. The homeowner, who had hired Jackson for the delivery, was present during the horrifying encounter but managed to escape Omondi’s violent assault.

Describing the chilling incident, the homeowner recounted a naked Omondi holding a key and insisting that Jackson was on his property. Despite attempts to reason with Omondi and continue with the firewood delivery due to freezing temperatures, the situation escalated. Omondi allegedly chased the homeowner into his home and later attacked Jackson, dumping a wheelbarrow on top of him.

Law enforcement responded to calls of an assault, discovering Jackson with “severe blunt force trauma” to his head and neck. Witnesses and video surveillance corroborated the homeowner’s account of the brutal attack.

Following the assault, Omondi reportedly returned to an Airbnb he was renting and confronted a woman in the laundry room, making threatening remarks. When police arrived, Omondi resisted arrest, prompting the use of a taser to subdue him.

The victim’s daughter, Kasey DeLeon, expressed her profound grief, describing her father as a loving figure who had spoiled her and her daughters. “I’ll never be able to call my dad again. I’ll never be able to see him. At this moment, I have so much hate and so much anger,” she lamented. DeLeon fervently hopes for justice for her father.

The incident has left the Fort Worth community grappling with shock and sorrow, as authorities investigate the circumstances surrounding the tragic and senseless death of Scotty Jackson.

Horrifying: Gang of Pedophiles Filmed Themselves Raping Toddlers Inside Mall Bathroom

Shocking and horrifying videos have emerged, revealing a gang of at least seven men sexually abusing toddlers inside the restroom of a popular Houston mall, according to law enforcement. Arthur Hector Fernandez, a 29-year-old kiosk worker at the Galleria mall, is now facing charges related to assaulting toddlers and disseminating the appalling videos online.

The investigation was initiated by the FBI after abuse videos were shared on a private online forum and brought to their attention by the Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation. The videos, reportedly showing different assaults in various locations, including bathrooms at the Galleria mall, prompted immediate action.

Fernandez is the sole suspect charged in connection with the case, and it remains unclear if other individuals appearing in the videos have been identified by authorities. Two friends of Fernandez allegedly left their 2-year-old children in his care while they worked at the mall, contributing to the deeply distressing situation.

Law enforcement utilized an open-source image repository to search for the face of one of the abused children, subsequently matching it with social media images shared by one of the mothers. The identification process revealed Fernandez’s involvement, as the child’s mother recognized a pair of bracelets owned by the suspect in sanitized images provided by the police.

FBI agent Torrence White emphasized that perpetrators of such crimes often include individuals known to the victims, such as family members or community members. White warned parents that the danger might not always come from strangers but from people within their social circles.

Fernandez was arrested in December and remains in federal custody. The Galleria, Houston’s largest mall and the seventh largest in the United States, opened in 1969 and houses approximately 400 stores.

Former ‘Teacher of the Year’ Faces Termination Over Alleged Lesbian Relationship With Student

In a shocking turn of events, a former recipient of the ‘Teacher of the Year’ award in Texas, Brandyn Hargrove, is set to be terminated from her position at Brazoswood High School following charges of engaging in a relationship with a teenage female student spanning two years.

Hargrove, aged 43, was arrested on December 21 on charges including six counts of sexual assault of a child, four counts of indecency with a child by contact, and two counts of indecency with a child by exposure. The alleged incidents occurred in 2007 when the victim was 15, and Hargrove was around 27 years old.

The victim, now in her 30s, reported the incidents to the police in September 2023, prompting the arrest of Hargrove. She posted a $240,000 bond and was released from Brazoria County Jail.

Brazoswood High School officials took swift action, initiating steps to terminate Hargrove’s employment during a special board meeting on January 2. The Clute Police Department Chief, James Fitch, revealed that the incidents took place off-campus for two years, and the victim came forward under the current legal framework, citing the importance of trust in teachers when sending children to school.

The Brazosport Independent School District placed Hargrove on leave in September upon learning of the investigation. The district released a statement emphasizing its commitment to professionalism, integrity, and student safety. Hargrove will remain on paid administrative leave until the board votes on her termination, scheduled for January 22.

Parents in the community have expressed concern and disbelief over the allegations, highlighting Hargrove’s accolades, including sitting on the education foundation for the district and winning the Teacher of the Year award.

Mike Walls, a parent, conveyed the collective worry, stating, “I think every parent is concerned about this. She’s won numerous awards. She sat on our education foundation for the district.” Another parent echoed the sentiment, saying, “That’s not good. You know, you’re there to learn, and then this happens.”

Texas Governor Signs Bill Making Illegal Alien Entry From Mexico a State Crime

Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill making Texas the first state in the union to give law enforcement officers the authority to arrest migrants who illegally enter the state. The measure, SB 4, was signed into law on Monday during a ceremony at the base of the border wall in Brownsville, Texas.

The bill is part of a package of measures designed to decrease the flow of migrants entering the state from Mexico. The Texas Legislature passed the bills during two special sessions this fall.

Governor Abbott was joined at the bill signing ceremony by Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) President Brandon Judd, Adjutant General of Texas Major General Thomas Suelzer, Texas Border Czar Mike Banks, Senator Pete Flores, Senator Joan Huffman, Senator Charles Perry, Representative Ryan Guillen, Representative Jacey Jetton, Representative David Spiller, Representative Mano DeAyala, Representative Stan Kitzman, Representative Janie Lopez, and other border officials. House Speaker Dade Phelan was not present for the historic event.

Senate Bill 4 from Special Session #4 makes illegal entry into Texas from a foreign country a criminal offense. The law is the latest attempt by the state to crack down on migrants illegally entering the state between ports of entry. By creating the offense of illegal reentry, offenders can be penalized with sentences of up to 20 years in prison. It also provides the mechanism to order an offender to return to the foreign nation from which they entered or attempted to enter this state. The law provides civil immunity and indemnification for local and state government officials, employees, and contractors for lawsuits resulting from enforcing these provisions.

Texas Attorney General Sues Pfizer for COVID Vax Lies

Eight months ago, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced he was investigating Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson for potentially lying to the public concerning the success of their respective COVID-19 vaccines. . .

Paxton’s lawsuit alleges that Pfizer violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, claiming that Pfizer “engaged in false, deceptive, and misleading acts and practices by making unsupported claims.”

Three weeks after Paxton had initially announced the investigation, he was impeached.

“The first thing I did when I came back was I told my staff, ‘I want to get back on this,’ and we did,” Paxton tells Sara Gonzales. . .

“Pfizer’s widespread representation that its vaccine possessed 95% efficacy against infection was highly misleading from day one,” the petition created by Paxton and his staff reads. (Read more from “Texas Attorney General Sues Pfizer for COVID Vax Lies” HERE)

Man Arrested for Planning ‘Mass Casualty Event’ at Cybertruck Event With Elon Musk: Report

A man was arrested late last week for planning a “mass casualty event” at Tesla’s headquarters in Texas during an event to celebrate the much anticipated release of the electric car company’s new Cybertruck, according to law enforcement officials.

A SWAT team tracked down and arrested 28-year-old Paul Ryan Overeem at a McDonald’s parking lot and arrested him after he allegedly threatened to attack the event in messages he wrote on social media.

Tesla was notified on November 10 about the messages and they subsequently contacted local law enforcement officials who then began investigating, according to the Austin American-Statesman.

Texas Gets One Step Closer to Leaving US

Advocates for Texas’ secession from the United States believe they are on the verge of scoring a crucial victory.

The Texas Republican Party’s executive committee is set to vote over the weekend on which ballot propositions voters will decide during the Republican primary elections in March 2024. One measure would ask Republican voters, “Should the State of Texas reassert its status as an independent nation?”

Ahead of the vote, the Texas Nationalist Movement, an organization that supports Texas’ independence from the U.S., warned the GOP they have enough signatures to force a vote on the question of whether they support secession.

Texas nationalists have for years pushed for a referendum on Texas secession, despite the fact there is no provision for a state to secede in the U.S. Constitution. The state seceded from Mexico in 1836 and spent nine years as its own nation before becoming a U.S. state. It also seceded from the Union in 1861 before being readmitted following the end of the Civil War in 1870. (Read more from “Texas Gets One Step Closer to Leaving US” HERE)

FBI Foils What Could’ve Been a Horrific Terror Attack in Houston by a Radical Jordanian

When the threat appeared imminent, the FBI had to move in on the only charge that could stick for now: weapons charges. Sohaib Abuayyash, 20, was planning a massive terror attack targeting Jewish people in the Houston area. He had visited multiple gun ranges in the area and was trying to obtain instructions for bomb-making.

How Abuayyash was able to get firearms is a detail that will be revealed in time, but yes—he shouldn’t have been able to purchase or possess any firearm on a non-immigrant visa. That paperwork expired in 2019, but he’s been allowed to remain on American soil on a work authorization order through 2024. He’s also applied for asylum (via NY Post):

A “radical” Jordanian national living in Texas was allegedly plotting an attack on Houston’s Jewish community before he was arrested on gun charges.

Sohaib Abuayyash, 20, had been studying how to build bombs and posted about his support for killing Jews, federal officials claim.

“He has viewed specific and detailed content posted by radical organizations on the internet, including lessons on how to construct bombs or explosive devices,” FBI Director Chris Wray told the Senate Homeland Security Committee, though he declined to identify Abuayyash by name.

“And that defendant has made statements to others that support the killing of individuals of particular religious faiths.

Abuayyash even allegedly made a direct reference in one social media post about an event in Houston for the Jewish community, according to court documents obtained by CNN.
