exas Gov. Greg Abbott on Monday showed off to four other GOP visiting governors the controversial new border buoys his state border security initiative has installed in this South Texas border town in the middle of the Rio Grande.

This came after a survey last week by the International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC) had found most of the buoys in the 1,000-foot long string were actually on the Mexican side of the international river.
