In a blow to the Biden regime, a federal appeals court ruled on Wednesday that Texas had a right to erect razor wire barriers along its southern border to keep illegals out.
Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott celebrated the decision and promised to continue adding more razor wire barriers.
BREAKING: the federal court of appeals just ruled that Texas has the right to build the razor wire border wall that we have constructed to deny illegal entry into our state.and that Biden was wrong to cut our razor wire.

Per the New York Post:
In a 2-1 decision, the New Orleans-based 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Texas “will likely succeed” in a lawsuit arguing that the federal government would be in violation of state trespassing laws if it were to cut down concertina wire placed in Eagle Pass — a hot spot for human and drug smuggling — in an effort to combat illegal border-crossings.
“Texas is seeking, not to ‘regulate’ Border Patrol, but only to safeguard its own property,” the 5th Circuit’s ruling stated.
The Biden-Harris administration had argued that Border Patrol agents need to be able to cut through the razor-wire fence to fulfill their duty of “patrolling the border to prevent the illegal entry of aliens into the United States.”
Now, read that “defense” Biden tried again… he wanted to eliminate border security fencing and allow illegals to enter the country to help ICE secure the border to stop illegals from entering the country. Does that make any sense at all?
Abbott has been thumbing his nose at the illegal orders that Biden has issued about his river barriers and border barriers.
Good for him, too!
