Texas Governor Greg Abbott shares an update on X about the success of his border protection initiative “Operation Lone Star.” Abbott stresses it’s working to beat back the invasion at the border.
“Operation Lone Star is working. Look at the graph in this story,” Abbott posted on X, with the MRCTV story.
“Illegal crossings are going down in TX while at the same time they are skyrocketing in CA & AZ.
“It’s b/c of the border wall, razor wire barriers, the National Guard & arrests by DPS.”

From mrcTV:
The number of Border Patrol encounters with illegal aliens in Texas continued to plunge in February, thanks to the effectiveness of Republican Governor Greg Abbott’s Operation Lone Star. Meanwhile, encounters spiked again in California and Arizona, where Democrat governors are in charge, as illegal aliens increasingly turned their focus to more welcoming borders.
Through Operation Lone Star, Gov. Abbott has installed wire fencing at the border, deployed floating border barriers and called out the Texas National Guard to deter illegal immigration.
And, his efforts have been successful.
Through the first five months of Fiscal Year 2024 (Oct.-Feb.), the number of encounters of illegal aliens between ports of entry in Texas have declined 28% (from 560,920 to 406,458) compared to the same period year-ago. Four of the state’s five Border Patrol sectors recorded steep declines: El Paso (-47%), Big Bend (-65%), Laredo (-38%) and Rio Grande Valley (23%).
