PolitiFact Texas reports:
"At the Republican Party of Texas convention, Gov. Greg Abbott told thousands of delegates that the Islamic State group, which has ravaged parts of the Middle East, was at work along the Texas-Mexico border.
"Our country better wake up. We're facing an existential threat," he said. "ISIS is running through the border made porous by Barack Obama's policies."

"Abbott said "ISIS is running through the border made porous by Barack Obama's policies."
"We found no factual basis--Abbott offered none--to support the claim that ISIS is "running through" the border. Other claims of ISIS forces marshaling on the U.S.-Mexico border have been debunked, and this one deserves the same fate. Border security itself has been stepped up, by the federal government and Texas, with apprehensions lately on the decline.
"Abbott's claim isn't just wrong, it's ridiculous. Pants on Fire!"
Once again, the Governor is exposed for the liar he is. Is this the best our formerly great state has to offer? A liar?
