Nothing happened because it was all theater and showboating. The barbed wire is set up a few hundred feet away from literal open gates and gaps in the fence. The reason there are gaps is because the border goes through private land. Abbott saw an opportunity to do political theater at one border crossing. He was never going to do a chud insurrection like the rumblings suggested because he's just some rich fuck in a suit.
White people with farms on the border - Abbott doesn't touch. An opportunity to look like a callous, cruel racist? That's what he wants.
