"Texas Border Crisis: Migrant Deaths and Political Clashes"

The drownings of a woman and two children from Mexico near the US-Mexico border have intensified the dispute between Texas and federal officials over jurisdiction and handling of the migrant crisis. The deaths occurred after Texas state authorities blocked US Border Patrol from accessing the border near Eagle Pass, Texas. There are conflicting accounts of whether lack of access played a role in the deaths, with Texas officials denying any obstruction. The incident has heightened tensions between Texas and the federal government, with accusations of cruel and dangerous policies on both sides.
