![Governor Gregg Abbott's letter of declaration invoking "right of self-defense" of Texas as a state against an invasion of illegal immigrants that was caused and enabled by (((feds))). As an European I'm asking you Americans to brief me on this situation, is it legit? Could Texas soon leave the fed? [1050x1280 - 192KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/fdPHv3.jpg){kind=link}
Even "they can do whatever they want" is a step too far. The courts haven't decided if they can do it or not. The SCOTUS just overruled the preliminary injunction, which says to stop doing it until the case is decided. It's really at the "you can fuck around and find out" stage for the feds. The courts can still come back, after a trial on the merits, and say what the feds were doing is illegal.
