Comment on Texas' border standoff with feds continues, despite U.S. Supreme Court order

Comments

The US Constitution says:

Article I

    Section 10 Powers Denied States
        Clause 3 Acts Requiring Consent of Congress

        No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.

But TX is obviously being invaded. This is a directed action by well funded organizations.

Furthermore, the US Constitution says:

The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion

Is TX being invaded? Can you share something about this?

Of course it is not. It's just another dogwhistle.

There's a reason why you don't see this crap happening in California, even when they are well ahead of Texas in terms of unauthorized residents.
