Buckingham didn’t fool around. 1.3% of all illegals along the entire 1954 mile Mexican border were apprehended in the Big Bend Sector. Big Bend Sector apprehensions declined 92% since 2021. So let’s spend $46 million building a wall? #txlege gilmermirror.com/2026/07/31/…

Now that they’re dozing in the Big Bend National Park to construct a vehicle barrier, please note illegal encounters in BBNP are 0.045% of crossings on the entire 1954 mile border. That’s less than 1/2 of 1/10 of 1%. No bid contract for $1.65 billion. Thank you Kristi Noem.

I carry a handgun. Am I a domestic terrorist?

I carry a handgun. Am I a domestic terrorist?

If I brandish my handgun in the presence of a peace officer, I expect to get shot. If it remains untouched in my holster, I don’t expect to get shot.

As a retired Marine aviator who once held a TS security clearance, the launch time of the F-18 strike group and their time on target is classified. Tulsi/Hegseth say it’s not. Really? #txlege xitter.gq/FoxNews/status/1904879…
