"Texas Border Standoff: Illegal Crossings Halted, Frustration Sparks in Eagle Pass"

Texas National Guard has taken control of Shelby Park on the border of Mexico, significantly reducing illegal crossings by laying concertina wire fencing and building a 4,500-foot border wall using shipping containers topped with razor wire. The Biden administration has requested Texas to grant federal authorities full access to the park, but Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton denied the request, leading to a legal battle over border security and fencing along the Rio Grande. The conflict has drawn attention, with 25 Republican governors expressing solidarity with Texas' efforts to secure the border, and at least 15 Republican governors holding a press conference in support of Texas Governor Greg Abbott's actions.
