US Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday sued Texas over Governor Abbott’s order outlawing most ground transportation of illegal aliens.
On Wednesday, Texas governor Greg Abbott signed an executive order banning ground transportation of illegal immigrants by anyone other than law enforcement officers.
.. Snip..
Governor Abbott on Friday responded to the federal lawsuit over his executive order:
“The Biden Administration has created a constitutional crisis between the federal government and the State of Texas. This stems from the Biden Administration’s refusal to enforce immigration laws and allow illegal immigrants with COVID-19 to enter our country. As our communities are overrun and overwhelmed by the record-high influx of migrants, cartels and smugglers profit off the chaos. Not only that, but this crisis also extends beyond the border as deadly drugs like fentanyl infiltrate our communities. This already dangerous situation continues to deteriorate as the Biden Administration knowingly imports COVID-19 into Texas from across the border—willfully exposing Texans and Americans alike. President Biden has a duty and a responsibility to protect and uphold our nation’s sovereignty, yet he has long-since abdicated his authority to do so.
“As the Governor of Texas, I have a responsibility to protect the people of Texas—a responsibility that grows more urgent by the day while the Biden Administration sits on the sidelines.

Exactly.
Great idea. Invite AG Garland to Texas.. Lure him with stacks of green, gold, silver, diamonds and other jewels.. THEN ARREST HIS DEMONIC ARSE AND THROW HIM IN SOLITARY.

Neither Catholic, nor a Charity.
Abbott has the Texas Rangers, what does Garland have?
Excellent idea! And, also, sue the heck out of every other entity that supports illegal immigration, and other woke practices that the DEMONRATS are using to destroy our FREE republic!
Oops, sorry for the duplicate post!!
Well..it will end up in a liberal court, like the SCOTUS, and then they will rule Texas has no standing.
Until states get it into their heads that this federal government is not a government at all, and is in fact a oligarchy, and if they do not split and get to hell away from it, they will continue to force their oligarchy rules and dictates upon anyone they see fit.

How about arresting Garland
If the Supreme Court decides against Abbott, he has to defy them. I wish I thought he had the guts to do so.
in a sane world scrotus would slam this 9-0 in texas’ favor
with roberts and kavanaugh and acb unreliable to their oaths, can’t cpunt on a constitutional majority
The General Powers of the state vs the enumerated powers of the Feds.
Garland will get his immediate stay, and will likely get his court order in hand to desist.
As America watches and wonders who will eventually resort to force.
Will Texas resist?
As Andrew Jackson once said, you made your decision, now what will you do to back it up? Texas has taken a stand. They had better not back down. If they do we as a country are screwed. You don’t make such a stand as a bluff. You better be ready to make your stand and back it up to the end.
This country’s biggest enemy is in Washington. The swamp is again in control.
They have always been a den of Marxist revolutionaries, and enemies of the American people.
Apologies to all of you good Catholics. The Catholic Church leadership isn’t about bringing souls to Christ. It’s about money and power.
Lol! That’s about right.
He’s a show pony.
Send them to San Francisco and Delaware.
Theoretically, it’s a state’s rights issue, but we all know what the Constitution means to leftists.
