"The fallout from the Supreme Court’s ridiculous decision continues. In a 5 to 4 ruling, with the usual defections of Roberts and Barrett to the dark side, the court ruled that the Biden administration did have the right to remove razor wire that served as a barrier to the slew of illegal migrants crossing our southern border. It was a stunning ruling because the decision, in effect, is preventing Texas from enforcing the law while enabling the Biden administration to break the law.
Almost immediately after the ruling was handed down, Texas officials told the Supreme Court to shove it."

Now just a few motorcycle “CLUBS” to join.
How is this “in defiance of the Supreme Court”?
This is a dangerous situation. I support Texas 100%. But these circumstances call for careful speech. The Supreme Court decision says that the feds can remove razor wire. It does not say that placing more wire is not allowed. Usually the libs love this hair splitting stuff; not so much here. But the fact is that the actions of Texas do not “Defy” the SCOTUS ruling, and it’s both false and irresponsible to say otherwise.
You beat me. See mine below yours
Let Governor Abbott lead this.
This is not Red Dawn.
It is the habit of the leftists to not stick to a 9-5, m-f schedule.
The left likes chaos. They like it when people run around with their hair on fire trying to respond to unexpected actions.
I would not be surprised to see an escalation by whomever is running the Biden administration as soon as tomorrow. I hope Texas is ready.
Ask Dr. Turley, he wrote it.

I hope it’s not another mirage convoy. I applaud them but there hasn’t yet been a Canadian style convoy here in the states has there?
“The Supreme Court decision says that the feds can remove razor wire.”
No, they said the Border patrol could cut the razor wire. It never said it could remove it or that they must stop putting it in place.
With 25 states behind this, DC and the Courts will have a hard time forcing crap on us.
I called my congressman’s staff last Monday, and gave them a link that shows 100% that this is an invasion, not just illegal immigration.
Governor Abbott knows this too. That is why this is shifting.
We wait, but not long.
“The NIJ rates level IV armor to defeat up to .30 caliber armor-piercing (AP) bullets that weigh 166 grain and a muzzle velocity of 2,880 ft/s. Our soldiers wear Level IV armor in combat operations.”
“NIJ-Listed Level III body armor protects the wearer of the armor from rifle caliber bullets shot from an AR-15 style rifle and every handgun caliber.”
Keep the boy toys at home.
I agree with you. This is an interim prder pending hearingthe case based on the meriuts of the case, constiotutional law. This interim order is designed to maintain a status quo between the parties before the case is heard and a decision endered.
This is where the court failed, not taing notyice of the tremendous hardship thieir interim order induced on the People of Texas and elsewhere.
THe order does not prohiibit Texas from putting up new wire.
This is the time to protest Biden and his policies,but not the Supreme COurts regular process whichi in my view was a mistake. THe true status qua is to not have illegals enter our nation contrary to the existing law on the books.
Abbot needs to lead this but at the same time it would be good to see The People array themselves and give notice to the Feds and to the State of Texas that they will act to observe, defend and protect the Constitution,the profound duty of every citizen.
The SCOTUS is in violation of the Constitution
Not sure where you are going with that.
