In a significant escalation of tensions with the federal government, Texas state troopers and the National Guard have begun arresting undocumented migrants as they enter the United States, with a recent video showing a group of 10 migrants being detained. Texas has effectively taken control of Shelby Park, a public park along the U.S.-Mexico border in Eagle Pass, and is using it as a base for these operations, even refusing to allow Border Patrol agents into the park. The state's actions are a response to what Texas officials see as the federal government's failure to enforce existing immigration and border security laws. The situation has highlighted the deepening rift between Texas and the Biden administration over immigration issues.
