Texas's happy-go-lucky Governor -and complete psychopath- quipped yesterday to Dana Loesch that his state is doing everything it can legally do to stop migrants, short of killing them on sight, because if that happened the mean old Biden administration would charge Texas with murder.

Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) boasted to radio host and former National Rifle Association spokesperson Dana Loesch about his state’s comprehensive—and controversial—immigration policies Thursday during an interview on her show.

“We are using every tool that can be used from building a border wall to building these border barriers, to passing this law that I signed that led to another lawsuit by the Biden administration,” Abbott said on The Dana Show.

“The only thing that we’re not doing is we’re not shooting people who come across the border, because of course the Biden administration would charge us with murder,” he added, stopping short of saying whether he thought such a prosecution would be unfair.
