Texas Approves $495.3 Million for Border Security Operations
Texas has approved the transfer of $495.3 million to fund Operation Lone Star and critical border operations at other state agencies, the governor’s office announced Friday.
“This funding will address immediate border security needs while future funding needed to protect Texans continues to be evaluated,” according to Gov. Greg Abbott’s office.
The vast majority of the funds—$465.3 million—will go toward supporting the deployment of the Texas Army National Guard, with the remaining some $30 million to be sent to other state agencies.
The state leadership said in a letter to state agencies (pdf) the approval of the funds will take effect immediately.
“Texas will not sit on the sidelines as President Biden continues turning a blind eye to the crisis at our southern border,” Abbott said in a statement, adding, “This additional funding ensures the Lone Star State is fully equipped to provide Texans the border security strategy they demand and deserve.”

Mitch McConnell Says He Will Likely Vote For Gun Control Bill That Includes Red Flag Laws
Here we go.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Tuesday said he will likely vote for the gun control legislation that 10 Republicans agreed to over the weekend.
“For myself, I’m comfortable with the framework and if the legislation ends up reflecting the framework, I’ll be supportive,” McConnell told reporters on Tuesday.
McConnell is the 11th Republican senator to announce support for the gun control measure which means the Democrats easily have enough votes to overcome the filibuster.
RINOs like McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Collins, Toomey and others always fold to Democrat demands.
A group of bipartisan senators on Sunday reached an agreement on principle for gun legislation which includes ‘red flag’ laws.
10 Republicans joined the Democrats and bowed to their demands.
“The group on the release includes Republican Sens. John Cornyn of Texas, Thom Tillis and Richard Burr of North Carolina, Roy Blunt of Missouri, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Rob Portman of Ohio, Mitt Romney of Utah and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania.” – CNN reported.
The actual legislation has not been written yet.
Last week the House of Representatives approved sweeping gun control legislation that bans high-capacity magazines and raises the age to purchase an ‘assault rifle’ to 21.
The House passed the gun legislation 223-204 – 5 Republicans voted “yea” – 2 Democrats voted “nay.”
The Red Flag Laws by Democrats are not meant to stop crime. They are only meant to take guns from legal gun owners.

Defiant Pentagon Chief Lloyd Austin on Friday said he will evaluate the Defense Department’s policies in response to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade.
According to federal law, troops cannot use their Tricare health insurance to pay for abortions.
Furthermore, female servicemembers will only have access to private medical facilities that perform abortions in states that allow the procedure following the Supreme Court’s ruling on Roe v Wade.
Lloyd Austin is now evaluating the Defense Department’s policies to make sure female servicemembers are provided ‘seamless access to reproductive health care as permitted by federal law.’
“Nothing is more important to me or to this Department than the health and well-being of our Service members, the civilian workforce and DOD families,” the Pentagon chief announced. “I am committed to taking care of our people and ensuring the readiness and resilience of our Force. The Department is examining this decision closely and evaluating our policies to ensure we continue to provide seamless access to reproductive health care as permitted by federal law.”
