In a shocking development, the Supreme Court continued the pause of a Texas law that allows local police in the state to arrest illegal immigrants.
Just as the previous pause was expiring, Justice Alito extended it on Monday.
He did not give an expiration date for this extension.
🚨Texas SB4 “Texas Immigration Law” blocked again by Supreme Court. This is an indefinite pause. Justice Alito did not set a date for the pause to expire as he had the previous 2 pauses. In the meantime Joe Biden will continue to invade Texas with Criminal Aliens. pic.twitter.com/bG7BDJmAK8

The Biden administration is set on handcuffing Texas and letting illegal immigrants flood into the country undeterred.
Many are calling for Texas to stand for all Americans and ignore the ruling.
Andrew Jackson once reacted to a Supreme Court loss by saying “they’ve made their decision. Now let them come enforce it.”
That’s what Texas should say to the feds.

Texas should just ignore them.
Like Biden did with the student loan program.
They have no enforcement ability

Others are suggesting there may be another way for Texas to deal with the border.
The final countdown. Greg needs to call a special session to put Texit on Nov 2024 ballot. Let them in or keep them out. Let’s vote. #Texit pic.twitter.com/J8PAalBCB4

What do you think?
Should Texas become its own nation?
The Politics Brief reported more on the Supreme Court’s latest travesty:
The Supreme Court extended its pause Monday on a Texas law allowing local police to arrest migrants who enter the state illegally.
In a brief order, Justice Samuel Alito again extended an administrative stay preventing the law, SB 4, from taking effect after the pause was set to expire today. The Biden administration asked the Supreme Court in early March to block the law from taking effect while the lawsuit proceeds, writing that it could “create chaos in the United States’ efforts to administer federal immigration laws in Texas.”
The stay does not specify an expiration date and will continue until the full Court or Alito issues a new order.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed the law in December in response to record amounts of illegal crossings. The Department of Justice (DOJ) filed its lawsuit against Texas to prevent its enforcement in January.
