Texas Governor Greg Abbott spoke with Tucker Carlson on Friday, telling him that he's going to "do as much as possible to put up more border barriers and deny illegal entry," and that "our head is down we are working regardless of what the Biden Administration is doing."

Abbott told Carlson that he's "prepared" in the event that Biden tries to take over the Texas National Guard.

"That would be a boneheaded move on his part, a total disaster," he said. "We are prepared, in the event that that unlikely event does occur."
