#shorts On 5/8/2023, during press briefing, a reporter asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “on the border, Governor Abbott announced just a little while ago he’s sending another 450 National Guard to the border. He said some pretty tough words for the President. He calls it a “Biden-made crisis.” He said the cartels are working in collaboration with the President and the federal government to facilitate illegal border crossings. And Governor Abbott said, quote, “We are being overrun by our own federal government. Texas is being undermined by our own federal government in our efforts to secure our border.”

KJP: … This is just about political theater for him. This is not really dealing with this issue. It’s about creating more chaos. It’s about creating more confusion at the border. That’s what he wants to do. That’s what he chooses to do. And that’s not what we want to do. We’re see- — we’re do — we’re u- — we are — put into place a robust plan … We’re using the tools that we have in front of us to deal with this issue. Republican officials want to do something else. They want to campaign on this issue. They want to do political stunts. That’s what we’re seeing from the governor — governor of Texas.
