DOJ suing TX over new border security law.
National Security Laws protects Democracy
President Biden said MAGA is a threat to Democracy. A few years ago in 2021, Vice President Harris forewarned migrants not to illegally cross U.S Southern Border. “If they cross the border they will be sent back.”
Three years later and Migrants seeking asylum are illegally crossing U.S Southern Border. National Security Laws protects Democracy and the Border.

“The U.S. Department of Justice sued Texas on Wednesday over a new state law that allows Texas police to arrest migrants suspected of crossing the Texas-Mexico border illegally.”
“Texas cannot disregard the United States Constitution and settled Supreme Court precedent,” Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian M. Boynton, head of the Justice Department’s Civil Division, said in a statement. “We have brought this action to ensure that Texas adheres to the framework adopted by Congress and the Constitution for regulation of immigration.”
“The lawsuit was filed in an Austin federal court and names Gov. Greg Abbott and Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw. It asks the court to declare the state law unconstitutional and prevent Texas from implementing it.”
“The law, which is scheduled to take effect March 5, would make it a state crime to cross the Texas-Mexico border between ports of entry.”
CNN: “Texas is sending asylum seekers to major cities by bus with little notice. These mayors want to pump the brakes.”

FoxNews: “Biden lawsuit over Texas immigration law latest attempt to stifle states’ moves to stop illegal immigration
Biden administration targeting both Arizona, Texas with lawsuits.”
“The United States brings this action to preserve its exclusive authority under federal law to regulate the entry and removal of noncitizens,” the lawsuit states. “Texas cannot run its own immigration system. Its efforts, through SB 4, intrude on the federal government’s exclusive authority to regulate the entry and removal of noncitizens, frustrate the United States’ immigration operations and proceedings, and interfere with U.S. foreign relations.”
To demonstrate respect for United States National Security Laws, Migrants seeking asylum should come through the legal entry process at Embassy Consulates.
