I don’t get it, but lawyers commenting on Fox says he has Supreme Court precedent on his side. How can our Constitution not protect us from non enforcement of our laws?

States were intended to have a degree of sovereignty. The SC has ruled that states can’t be forced to carry out federal law. There’s an argument that funds can’t be withheld as punishment, but it’s a weak one.

The SC has long ago become outcome based rather than legally based, so it’s really a crapshoot.
