A Justice Department official said in a letter sent to Abbott that the law was unconstitutional

Oh, a career government employee who is a liberal states that such a law is unconstitutional?

And when did this GS-12 employee get appointed and confirmed to the Supreme Court?

Meanwhile, several cities in Illinois are “sundown towns” with warning signs that forbid migrants. Those towns that make arrests and impound buses carrying migrants.

So which is it? Illinois can and Texas can’t?

Bring it and we’ll turn Obrador loose on your asses. He and his gangs run the U.S. border, not you clowns in D.C. I guess you weren’t listening the other day. You’ll all become Grand Marshall’s of Obrador’s 15,000 azho extortion parade like Blinkey and Mayorkas were this past week.

We need to completely seal the stateline of Texas all the way around the entire state. Let’s see what the Dept. of Jugheads come up with to stop that.

I’m sure Senator John Kennedy will come up with a folksy drawly clip that will “destroy” the DOJ, and everything will be hunky-dorey.

Maybe Texas should leave the union. Biden protects foreign countries from invasion.

“SB 4 is preempted and violates the United States Constitution. Accordingly, the United States intends to file suit to enjoin the enforcement of SB 4 unless Texas agrees to refrain from enforcing the law,”

The Sovereign Republic of Texas needs to put this to the test. They have just been asked to NOT enforce “the law”.

The actions of the out of control, illegal, and unconstitutional government of the United States has certainly overstepped whatever authority it was loaned by “We the People” to the point they are now the abuser of those to whom the power and authority actually belongs in accordance with said Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.

In other words, don’t interfere with our plans to destroy the Middle Class and establish our long sought totalitarian government.

Biden admin threatens to sue Texas for enforcing federal laws that he won’t.

Some reports say a country wants to construct a new city in California what next a number tag riveted to our ear.

Democrats like to change names a lot like slavery to labor sale.
