The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can resume building a border wall through the Big Bend region of West Texas.
The justices voted 8-1 on Monday to lift a federal judge’s order that had stopped construction across the sector for more than a month. The unsigned five-page decision said a 1996 immigration law gives the Homeland Security secretary wide room to waive environmental rules and that Congress wrote it to favor fast construction over the harm the challengers described.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the only one who said she would have turned the administration down. She did not explain why.
Crews can now return to work across the roughly 500-mile project area, where the government has planned more than 300 miles of barriers, patrol roads, and surveillance equipment, including inside Big Bend National Park. The administration has said it will not build a large wall within the park itself.

3 ??? 2 ??? NEW CARAVANS ARE HEADING NORTH......
Taliwhacko will cut a nice front door in it for them.
Walls are only useful when they’re defended, which they soon won’t be.
At least 3 I’ve heard of.
Thousands coming in from Honduras. Military age males on foot.
The one person who doesn’t know what a woman is.
“Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was the only one who said she would have turned the administration down.”
Surprise, surprise, surprise!
Actually, 8 in favor IS very surprising. Good news, especially after the shellacking a week ago.
Of course, in two years, if a D wins POTUS, they will tear down all the wall that’s been built.
The new DSA governor will hold the gates wide open for the caravans to walk right in.
