TX deploys floating barrier to deter migrant crossings at US-MX border. "TX is installing a “floating wall” across the Rio Grande with netting intended to snag & drown border-crossers. River currents will trap debris in the nets & alter river flows. Ppl & wildlife will drown🚨. This is Gov Abbott’s deadly abomination… 4 ft high, equipped with weights & netting, designed to rotate to keep people from scaling them.”-Laiken Jordahl. #RepublicanRacism #GOPLies #ProImmigration https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/07/us/texas-marine-floating-barrier-migrants/index.html

@KimPerales I wonder what farmers and ranchers will say when the flow of water is directed AWAY from their crops and stock and how they will handle dead bodies that wash up on their property.

@KimPerales I hope Mexico will destroy the parts that, inevitably, illegally cross into their water.

@KimPerales Abbott is in a literal death match with DeSantis. They both profess to be Catholic. True to form, no bishop will chastise them for their murderous dehumanization of the stranger their faith commands them to welcome.

@KimPerales What a horror! It was clearly designed to kill people. Also terrible for a very fragile ecosystem.

@KimPerales of one thing I’m sure, the people in Mexico wanting to come here are far smarter than the people in Texas who don’t mind murdering them if it keeps them out.

@Barbramon1 It's worse than when we learned of his diabolical plans a few months ago. I just happened to see Jordahl's comments on it today. I've followed him for years & appreciate his expertise. His background is protecting ecosystems, but he cares deeply about the plight of migrants too.

@KimPerales This is the first I've heard of this. Thank you for posting. I suppose I should not be shocked after all that Republicans have done vis-a-vis the southern border, but this hit me viscerally. It's meant to murder.

@KimPerales This is obscene. I hope the federal government can step in to stop it.

@KimPerales … does Gov. Abbott have a plan to stop people from stealing these things? 🤔 They look like they’d be worth a couple bucks. 🤷♀️

@KimPerales … any idea what it cost? 😵 to “defend” 1000ft of the whole US-MX border. 🤪also, do we know if these floats are filled with air, or styrofoam? filled-with-foam would make this basically unsinkable … but costs more. 😘totally hoping the contractor cut-corners on this. looking forward to future pics of this half-sunken, low enough in the water it’s obviously possible to swim over.

@KimPerales so wait, the fish trapped on the south half of the river forever live on the south half of the river?Do they have bears in Texas? I hope a bear comes and rips that shit down.
