SCOTUS says the Feds can take down the barbwire Texas has put up and they said Texas is not allowed to secure their border.

What’s Texas gonna do now?

Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett - joined the three liberal justices in the majority

The better question is "What is the Republic of Texas going to do"?

Need to start sending the bus loads of illegals to the neighborhoods where these justices live.

Justices are too scared to go against Liberals on issues where the Liberal crazies will come out!

Need to continue going just like they are just like bidun does when they tell him he cant do something.

On what grounds? What’s the logic behind the ruling?

My assumption is they determined the Federal government is responsible for maintaining national borders. Normally that wouldn't be a problem if the people running the federal government used any common sense at all. My guess is the conservatives that voted in favor of the federal government probably were worried about the law of unintended consequences if they set a different precedent by voting otherwise.

Texas needs to keep on keeping on. Draw a line. Why? If federal government refuses to do their duty, then any state should do what they need to do as their secondary responsibilities. Then send an invoice to Washington.

Unreal. We are in a world of hurt. This dated video explains why. Given our love affair with debit, and now SCOTUS says open the flood gates.

You just have to play the game.

Offer state funding/tax credits to private property owners to put up their own fence.

I have a different question. Why do they have to do what SCOTUS says? Biden doesn't.

I'm not disagreeing with you, someone just asked why they ruled the way they did and, if I was forced to guess why the conservative ones did, that would be my hunch. The liberal judges most likely didn't look at this as a case of the federal government "refusing to do their duty", they probably thought the federal government was in the right to begin with.

I'm not saying I agree with them, I'm just speculating on what their reasoning was behind the ruling, which was the question that was asked.

. Which judges are you saying are conservative? Robert's, who is the sole reason we have Obama care? Or Barrett who has sided with the liberals on student loans, guns and several other liberal rulings?

Both are generally considered to be "conservative judges", especially relative to the others with whom they voted

yep. I wonder what the dirt is they have on Robert’s.

There are rumors that he liked to vacation on a certain island from time to time.........who knows if that's accurate or not, but even if not, someone somewhere obviously has incriminating evidence on him about something

I understand the reasons for the bad decision. I'm simply saying that it's way past time for states within the constitutional Republic to step up and enforce current federal laws when the federal government refuses to do so. Refuses. 50 independent states joined a union. By God, Texas has a right to secure its own border. If the feds refused to deliver mail within a state, well that state should be able to deliver mail within its own borders if it saw fit. This isn't usurping federal government responsibilities it picking up the dropped (on purpose) ball. FJB!

Do you want the states to determine who comes in or the government? Being serious.
