Supreme Court Allows Removal of Razor Wire on US-Mexico Border in Divisive 5-4 Vote
Citizen Watch Report ^

Posted on 01/22/2024 1:25:53 PM PST by davikkm

I can't help but feel deeply frustrated by this recent Supreme Court decision, where a slim 5-4 majority has given the green light to federal agents to cut the razor wire installed by Texas along the US-Mexico border. It's not just about the wire; it's about the fundamental responsibility of those in power to ensure the safety and well-being of American citizens.

The decision seems to undermine the very essence of border security, and it leaves me questioning the commitment of our leaders to enforce the laws that are meant to protect us. The border is not just a line on a map; it's a crucial element in maintaining the security and integrity of our nation.

Yes. The SCOTUS ignoring the Constitution certainly means that Texas has to assert its own defense.

Ignore them. Just like Biden ignores the ruling on college tuition forgiveness.

The only way this insanity stops is when one of theirs is affected. And sooner or later it will.

Article I, Section 10, Clause 3.

“No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, UNLESS ACTUALLY INVADED, or IN IMMINENT DANGER as will not admit of delay.”

10 million flooding in, up to 15,000 a day, utterly unvetted and uncontrolled? That IS an invasion. Hell, Santa Anna only showed up with 2100 soldiers at the Alamo. We get 9 times that many on an average day now. What would it take to call it an invasion?

If the Federal government reneges on it’s CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY to defend the states against invasion, are the states supposed to accept it?
The US Constitution is not a suicide pact.

All four women on the court (Including the vaunted Amy Conehead-Barrett) and Roberts voted to take the razor wire down.

Again...explain to me why letting women vote was a good idea? And Roberts chief counsel is married to Mary McCord. The very same Mary McCord of FISA warrant Russiagate fame.

Was this a ruling about the merits of just whether to leave an injunction in place until they actually hear the case?

“ Not sure why this is unexpected. It is a long-running precedent that the federal government — not individual states — has authority to enforce border security.”
***********************************************************************

But does the federal government have the authority to ENFORCE border INsecurity? Because that’s what they are doing…”tear down that wall, Texas, let the invaders in”.

John Roberts delivers for the Bushies once again.

Unreal.

Treat the Decision the same way as the White House has treated the Student Loan Forgiveness prohibition: IGNORE IT.

Let them send in troops.

Time to take the gloves off, and enforce State's Rights.

You KNOW the USSC is voting along party lines, and AS DIRECTED.

The ONLY Justice anymore is in We The People, and it's time to ACT.

From Rep. Clay Higgins:

The feds are staging a civil war and Texas should stand their ground.

So... put the razor wire, and more, 100 yards inside the Federally enforced border...the feds cannot touch it. It’s state jurisdiction zone. Round em up and ship them back.

If I understand Texan’s, the 5 loosers [sic] of the SC will have to come do it themselves.

No, the Border Control will be cutting it.

Supreme Court just did a squat job on the oath of office for a president.

Must be a lot of free stuff floating around out there?.

I feel so incredibly unsafe in our own nation. Nobody can help us now. I don’t know what Abbott’s gonna do either cave or flip a finger like the Democrats do to the Supreme Court? This is so incredibly unfair and unconstitutional to our state. I am infuriated infuriated. And Abbott better send bus load after bus load after busload to their houses …..I mean it it I am infuriated!
