The police response was a total fuck-up.

This is like 2 or 3 mass shooting ago now old news

It would be if it weren't coming out how cowardly LE turned out to be...

It was a total failure of leadership. One report said the door wasn't even locked.

Just to clarify, "Operation Lone Star" is the border patrol/anti-immigrant stuff.

How come fox never mentions it just Biden and Pelosi when it comes to the southern border?

They probably mentioned it a lot when he launched it.
Big dramatic contrast to "The Dems are failing at the border!" stuff they were pushing.
Since then, I expect the cost overruns, investigations into abuse and deaths, and general corruption keep it off the fox news radar.
Besides, it doesn't help with a narrative they are pushing right now so why hype it?
They might push it again if Beto's poll numbers look strong.

My 2-second glance at it suggested that it's largely a slush fund to pay off Abbott loyalists in border and near border counties and towns.

Not unreasonable.

Sometimes I wish that all of Texas would just catch fire.....

Not a good optic if you are trying to court the conservative Latino vote...
