What is the definition of “invasion”, in the Constitution? What was the common definition in the early days of the Republic?

PATRIOT ALERT: 14 RED STATES ARE UNITING TO SUPPORT TEXAS AGAINST THE RUNAWAY BIDEN REGIME!

Folks, it’s happening.

Ak, Fl, Ia, Id, Ne, ND, Oh, Ok, SC, SD, Tn, Va, WV, and Wy are answering the PATRIOT CALL and deploying personnel and resources to the Texas border!

THIS IS THE WAY!

Our 1776 SPIRIT is awakening because WE ARE AMERI-CANS!

My friends, THIS is the WAR we should be fighting!

Not UKRAINE. Not ISRAEL. Not ANYWHERE ON EARTH BUT HERE.

Because the tyrannical Biden regime has done nothing but destroy our national autonomy since he stole the office from President Trump.

WE THE PEOPLE must do as the Constitution guides us to do and REMOVE HIM ON GROUNDS OF TREASON!

It’s not complicated.

Texas has STATES’ RIGHTS.

The first and primary right is the right to self-defense.

And any president who tries to stop a sitting governor from protecting his state and its people, is effectively AN ENEMY OF THE STATE.

Joe Biden is such an enemy.

He must be removed from office BEFORE his term ends.

Because he does not deserve to leave office in victory:

HE MUST LEAVE IN SHAME.

“STOP taking federal funding”

“That would be a great step...in conjunction with no longer sending Washington the states tax dollars.”

Yep, put those taxes in a trust as recognized legal timely payment to the IRS but held in trust pending litigation and or arbitration. Let the IRS come. They cannot act without approval and cooperation of state and local jurisdictions.

No different that the feds just denying finds to states at the drop of a hat for any reason they like. THEY set the legal precedent first.

It has been used against the Chinese and the Irish in the past.

“Hopefully Texas has studied history. South Carolina tried this and lost.”

I did, and they have the legal right to be independent. Only state that does.

wording of the Constitution seems pretty clear on that issue of invasion.

I suspect that the liberal view of this is going to be that an invasion is not what we’re seeing. They will Define invasion as meaning a military attack , not illegal aliens pouring across the border. We will see.....

Biden will do whatever he’s told by Obama, who is behind all of this.

Illegal immigration IS invasion.

Don’t let the Delusional Lying Left confuse you about that.

That’s the definition? Used against the Irish?

I am pretty sure that isn’t the legal argument the government will use against Texas.

Funny, to the Dems a massive influx of unwanted entrants some in their vast numbers carrying illegal and life threatening drugs to spread among the populace is not an invasion, but a celebration of the immigration story. While an unarmed protest of govt action where a fer hundred entered the Capitol structure is an insurrection.
I STAND WITH TEXAS!

Neither one of those two is very smart, just corrupt and totally manipulated.

It's irritating to me to hear people keep blaming Joe Biden for everything, when he can't even manage to control his bowels. He isn't making any of these decisions....

I see this showdown as the potential Ft. Sumpter of the second Civil War. The border states of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Idaho could secede pinching off the flow of illegals, yeah “illegals” from Mexico and the rest of the world.

It is obvious that California, Oregon and Washington will not impede the flow, so they will also have to be considered as Mexico del Norte.

If the left continues to control the government, it will piss away any military capability on its former citizens, leaving us low-handing fruit for the rest of the world.
