SCOTUS DISASTER: 'Conservative' judges side with libs on key border case
January 23, 2024
The U.S. Supreme Court has voted to allow the federal government to resume cutting and removing razor wire installed by the state of Texas on the southern border.
The 5-4 vote was swayed by Justice John Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett, who sided with liberal judges Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan, and Sonia Sotomayor in the ruling.
“I don’t understand how you could possibly make this determination,” Sara Gonzales says, adding, “and now, while we wait for SCOTUS to hear the larger case, we just get to keep letting all of these people in unvetted.”
Stu Burguiere agrees but notes this is a process decision by the Supreme Court.
Burguiere believes it “doesn’t necessarily mean they’re arguing against Texas’ right to defend themselves,” though it does “make us more vulnerable for an extended period of time.”
He adds that while Justice John Roberts is a “lost cause,” this decision does make him nervous about Amy Coney Barrett.
“Hopefully this isn’t an indication of what’s to come,” he says.
However, with the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade, SCOTUS has given conservatives hope that what’s to come won’t be all that bad.
“That has helped, I think certainly in that case, but it’s not a cure-all,” Burguiere says.
