We didn't elect these judges, and we didn't elect the people who appointed them. We futhermore didn't vote on the laws they enforce.
There is a word I'm looking for, here. Ah yes, the word is "sovereignty".
I would like to see them try and issue an order to the Governor of Texas. The Governor of Texas answers only to God.

I believe the governor of Texas answers to a few people other than God, such as the voters of Texas and the President of the United States of America. But that's a mior disagreement I suppose.
The United States chose to sign a treaty. What good is a treaty if we can break it whenever we feel like it? If we informed the convicted murderers of their right to contact the Mexican consul, then we're good to go. If not, we violated a treaty that we signed. That's not an issue of sovereignty. It's an issue of keeping our word.
