Biden Sues Texas Over State Law to Stop Illegal-alien Invasion

by R. Cort Kirkwood

 

The Biden administration sued Texas yesterday because Governor Greg Abbott and state legislators decided the Lone Star State must do the job Biden won’t do.

The lawsuit seeks to stop Texas from enforcing SB4, a law that criminalizes entering Texas illegally across the southwest border and also allows state officials to deport illegal aliens. The administration claims that enforcing immigration law is the sole purview of the federal government.

As well this week, the administration sought permission from the U.S. Supreme Court to remove razor wire that Texas authorities installed to stop the illegal-alien invasion that Biden is aiding and abetting.

Texas’s Senate Bill 4 (SB 4) creates purported state immigration crimes for unlawful entry and unlawful reentry, permits state judges and magistrates to order the removal of noncitizens from the country, and mandates that state officials carry out those removal orders. But Texas cannot run its own immigration system. Its efforts, through SB 4, intrude on the federal government’s exclusive authority to regulate the entry and removal of noncitizens, frustrate the United States’ immigration operations and proceedings, and interfere with U.S. foreign relations. SB 4 is invalid and must be enjoined.

Of course, Traitor Joe Biden is the culprit behind the effort to “frustrate the United States’ immigration operations and proceedings.” He refuses to enforce black-letter immigration law on myriad counts…
