Washington — The Supreme Court on Friday cleared the way for the Biden administration to reinstate rules that instruct Immigration and Customs Enforcement to focus its deportation efforts in the U.S. interior on immigrants with serious criminal convictions and those deemed to threaten national security.
The court found that Texas and Louisiana, the two states that challenged the administration's guidelines, lacked standing to bring the suit, formally known as United States v. Texas. The ruling was 8-1, with only Justice Samuel Alito dissenting. Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote the opinion for the majority, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Maybe we should move the Supreme Court to Brownsville, Texas so they could get a better understanding of what's really happening.

Washington DC needs more bus transportation from south Texas. Drop off on Capitol Hill.

The SCOTUS is making itself irrelevant. Douglas McArthur's father told him to never give an order that he knew would not be carried out lest you lose credibility and authority. SCOTUS is becoming Baghdad Bob. Fight for your state! To hell with DC!

The constitution gives States the way to stop this nonsense with Convention of States. Levin has been pushing this for years. The problem with that is of course the States have there own whores. Arizona, Georgia , Texas just to name a few, that would never invoke the power to do so.

The court ruled they didn't have standing to bring the suit. This doesn't mean the court disagrees, but that they states need to get their cases in proper order.

So the states do not have "STANDING" to bring about a lawsuit. Then who does? When the Supreme Court makes these "standing" rulings, it would be nice if they would say who does have standing to file suit. On the bright side, the ruling did not actually affirm that what the Biden administration was doing was legal; just that the wrong people challenged them. Now if only we knew who had this mysterious standing the Supreme Court keeps talking about.

It turns upon what "Interior" means...apparently border states, even one that stretches 801 miles north from the border, isn't.

"Lacked Standing" Hmmm, where oh were have I heard that before? Oh yeah now I remember - When the presidential election in 2020 was stolen by the Communist Death Democrats and the States sued to overturn the illegal election in order to preserve our Republic and the soulless, gutless, black robe lawyers who fester like a running sore on the Supreme Court rejected all those suits because the States "Lacked Standing". It is way past time for all of the red States to throw off the totalitarian shackles of the lawless Federal Courts including and especially the Supreme Kangaroo Court and refuse to obey any more unconstitutional rulings. Texas and Louisiana tell the Supreme Court to pound sand, seal their borders and deport ever single damn illegal alien in your states. The red states need to start asserting and enforcing their Federalist Rights immediately. Secession anyone?

*Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson, along w/ Kavanaugh* should
drop the middle men : pitch tent cities on their landscaped lawns, to service the busloads arriving from the border states.

Common sense will tell you that was a very dumb ruling no matter the legal gymnastics involved. It was also dumb for those two States to push that issue up to the Supreme Court in the first place as the Biden Administration will never follow any court ruling that limits the number of illegal aliens they can allow into the USA through their “Open Borders” and other bogus political programs to deliberately load up the USA with third world illegal aliens to change the political demographics and racial composition of the population of the USA.
The way that ruling will now be spread across the world to the international smuggling cartels and untold millions of prospective illegal aliens will be that once an illegal alien, or a million illegal aliens, cross the USA borderline unlawfully and make it into the interior of the USA that they will be “home free” from being arrested and deported, unless the incompetent US Government can prove that they individually have serious criminal convictions either in foreign countries or the USA, or are a threat to the national security of the USA, and that they will be able to stay in the USA indefinitely perhaps forever, have children who will be granted immediate US citizenship by way of birth in the USA, and then when their child or children meet certain requirements can file petitions with the federal immigration authorities to legalize their entire foreign family members who have been living unlawfully in the USA.
If you have been paying attention you should know that the Democrats are demanding that all seventeen million illegal aliens now in the USA be given all the rights of US citizenship as far as public benefits are concerned, and that they then should be granted a Democrat “path to citizenship” amnesty that would grant them US Citizenship and US voting rights, as the Democrats know that most illegal aliens are poor, uneducated, unskilled, and are non-English speaking people who will easily be talked into supporting the socialist Democrat political agenda that give them all sorts of “free” stuff at US taxpayers expense.
The 101% politically partisan Biden and the power hungry Democrats would never think of doing that if they ever believed that more than a small percentage of the illegal alien population would ever become conservative Republican supporters and voters, you can bet your boots on that! The way to stop all that is to pass a Constitutional Amendment to the affect that no alien who entered the USA unlawfully, or who has stayed in the USA unlawfully longer than permitted, is deemed to be permanently ineligible for US citizenship. Such a constitutional amendment would completely eliminate the chances of illegal aliens being transformed by the tens of millions into future U.S. voters.
