Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has appealed for out-of-state assistance to fight the newest onslaught of COVID-19 to hit his state, according to the Associated Press.

Abbott has been sounding the alarm against the growing wave of illegal migrants crossing from the southern border into his state since President Biden overturned all of former President Trump’s executive orders to restrict illegal migration at the border.

Abbott’s request “came as a county-owned hospital in Houston raised tents to accommodate their COVID-19 overflow.

According to the Associated Press, Abbott’s request “came as a county-owned hospital in Houston raised tents to accommodate their COVID-19 overflow. Private hospitals in the county already were requiring their staff to be vaccinated against the coronavirus.”

Because of the growing number of cases of COVID in Texas, the Dallas school district has announced that children and staff will be wearing face masks starting Tuesday. Houston school district already announced a mask mandate.

The AP report notes that the governor “has directed the Texas Department of State Health Services to use staffing agencies to find additional medical staff from beyond the state’s borders as the Delta wave began to overwhelm its present staffing resources. He also has sent a letter to the Texas Hospital Association to request that hospitals postpone all elective medical procedures voluntarily.”

Biden Administration shipping thousands of baby formula pallets to border while our shelves are empty

American Democrats won’t spend money to secure our borders but will send billions of dollars to Ukraine to help them secure theirs, and now they are taking away the little baby formula that’s left and giving that away, too.

As photos and videos of stores across the country that haven no more baby formula in stock are going viral on social media, Republican Congresswoman Kat Cammack made a shocking discovery. According to Cammack and reported by Townhall, “pallets of baby formula have been delivered by the Biden Administration as store shelves go bare.”

“Biden is sending pallets of baby formula to the border. Meanwhile, store shelves across America are empty and moms are being told they don’t know when more is coming in. Welcome to Biden’s America where American moms and dads are last,” Cammack posted on Facebook. “What is infuriating to me is that this is another example of an America last agenda. Pallets [of baby formula]”.

“The American government is sending by the pallet, thousands and thousands of containers of baby formula to the border,” she said in a video.

Border Patrol agents have been instructed not to take baby formula home for their own children.

The first photo is from this morning at the Ursula Processing Center at the U.S. border. Shelves and pallets packed with baby formula.

The second is from a shelf right here at home. Formula is scarce.
