The June 10 stash house raid came on the same day Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced plans to begin the immediate building of border barriers and “mass arrests” of migrants illegally entering Texas and violating state laws, Breitbart Texas reported.

“The influx across the border is out of control, and the Biden Administration has shown that is not going to step up and do its job,” Governor Abbott told Breitbart Texas in a one-on-one interview shortly before the public announcement at his Border Security Summit in Del Rio, Texas, on Thursday.

“And amidst reports of even more people coming in across the border, we know we have to step up and do more.”

The governor stated, “If you come to Texas, you’re subject to being arrested. You’re not going to have a pathway to roam the country. You’re going to have a pathway directly into a jail cell.”
