The Department of Justice sent a letter to Governor Greg Abbott demanding the removal of the river barriers. If they are not removed, then the DOJ will take legal action.


The letter goes on to say the barriers were placed without authorization from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and they violates the Rivers and Harbors Act.

"Texas has the sovereign authority to defend our border, under the U.S. Constitution and the Texas Constitution.We have sent the Biden Administration numerous letters detailing our authority, including the one I hand-delivered to President Biden earlier this year," Abbott wrote on Twitter. "We will continue to deploy every strategy to protect Texans and Americans — and the migrants risking their lives.We will see you in court, Mr. President."

Isn't that exactly what the Democrats want the Left to do with SCOTUS decisions?

I guess? But that doesn't mean it's not a good tactic.
