Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton vowed to defend the sovereignty of the State of Texas after the U.S. Supreme Court issued an order on Monday permitting Border Patrol agents to resume destroying concertina wire barriers placed along the Rio Grande riverbank. 

The justices, by a 5-4 vote, granted the emergency appeal from the Biden administration which, according to the Patriot Post, argued “that Texas was — get this — preventing the Border Patrol from doing its duty. That duty, last we checked, was to keep illegals from entering the country.”

Not true.

The Supreme court did not rule in the case it reversed the lower courts injunction. A temporary issue, until the Court acts on the merit of the facts.

But it does show that some of the Supreme Court Justices are compromised.

Slavery was ruled Constitutional in the Dredd Scott decision. It’s clear that the Federal government’s limited role is protecting the border. This is an invasion that’s being allowed. Treason!
