Supreme Court Allows Federal Agents to Cut Razor Wire Texas Installed on US-Mexico Border - Breitbart

WASHINGTON (AP) — A divided Supreme Court on Monday allowed Border Patrol agents to cut razor wire that Texas installed on the U.S.-Mexico border, while a lawsuit over the wire continues.

Unknown how this will affect the TX troops at Eagle Pass park -

Boarder patrol agents are becoming a bunch of Rats.

SCOTUS are fools - the law is on the side of the State, given the Federal government's abdication of their duties.

They are trying to avoid increasing tensions - which is exactly what this ruling will do.

Abbott needs to stand firm, and if necessary, Texas DPS and National Guard elements need to begin arresting and disarming ANY Federal agents near the border, and turning back illegals. Any illegals here need to be shipped to Washington DC so they overwhelm the resources there and put the spotlight front and center - drop the illegals off on the steps of the US Capitol. Smuggle them in to DC in the dead of night if necessary.

This ruling also shows us that we cannot count on SCOTUS to uphold our 2A rights, because they will sell those out due to political expediency just like the immigration issue. Every justice voting for the Feds on this one are pathetic cowards.

These Federal Agents should definitely be arrested by Texas and charged with treason.

Disappointed but not surprised in Roberts. Surprised that Barrett ruled this way, though.

The feds/dems ignore the scotus, I say Texas can ignore them as well. send the fedbois packing

Though troubling, I'm not ready to condemn the decision just yet.
This current SCOTUS is about as constitution centric as I've seen in a long time.
There's a handful of people on here I am waiting to hear from on this.
My legal-fu is weak.

I'll give this some time and contemplation.
The stakes are high at this level.

Barret has not proven to be very republic-centric to date. IMHO.

Just reading the link and other sources, it seems the SCOTUS decision is focused on the razor wire, and not other actions.
I don't see any reference to stopping ALL Texas National Guard activities.

Cross our fingers...

Razor wire on state lands should be entirely out of the purview of the Feds, and anywhere else on the border should be covered because of the failure of the Federal government to uphold its responsibilities to the States.

Short of shooting invaders, what is the Guard going to do? Collect the illegals and give them hot chocolate and blankets like the BP is doing? The razor wire sends the message - go home.

Texas guard members need to arrest Feds, plain and simple. Force a showdown - be it in the courts, or with bullets if it comes to it.

All fingers crossed. Here's the deal.

IF the razor wire was preventing the illegals from crossing...that meant TNG didn't have to directly engage a lot of them.

Now that the wire will be gone - what exactly will TNG do when they're face to face? Aren't their orders to arrest them? What's the troop strength? Sufficient? This will not end well I'm afraid.

^^^^^^^^^^

Sasquatch, you're preachin' to the choir. My point is that maybe a loophole can be figured out so that The TX Guard can keep the feds out of Eagle Pass, continue to turn back or arrest aliens, etc.

The wire should stay - Roberts and Barrett's treason be damned.

That’s crackpot bullshit.

If we go pure state vs federal scotus is right even though nobody here agrees. Unfortunately scotus can not make feds enforce federal law as there would be no need for Texas to be doing any of this at our expense. Arresting all of the illegals is the best we can do and shipping them to democratic cities is a great idea. Beverly Hills is a nice location too.

Border Patrol are tools of the Cartels. They are scum.

Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Amy Coney Barrett, Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor sided with the administration. Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas voted with Texas

Of the three Trump appointees, only Gorsuch is a solid conservative vote. The other two are on the wrongside too often, though at least Kavanaugh got this one right.

Maybe a few dozen buses dropped off at their homes might help them understand the problem.

Show me where in the Constitution the feds are given the sole power to control migration. Otherwise, it is a 10A issue.
