QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“The Supreme Court decision allowing federal Border Patrol agents to cut concertina wire, when necessary, upholds longstanding precedent giving the federal government sole responsibility for border security. Texas’ stunts are more than just border politics—they endanger the lives of migrants, including many families who seek safety, protection, and a better life in the United States. The Court's order will allow federal officers to do their job and take steps to aid people in distress—which must always be a top priority for our government.”
