Hey ladies and gentlemen this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and we have breaking news
0:05
coming out of the Supreme Court and it's massive. In fact it changes literally everything when it
0:12
comes to immigration law. Before we get started please make sure you like, comment, share and

Today the Supreme Court decided that Texas could go forward with its SB4 law. What does this mean
0:32
It means that Texas now has the authority to arrest, incarcerate and deport illegal aliens
0:42
that enter the state of Texas. It also can use whatever means it needs to to block
0:47
illegal immigrants in the state of Texas. This is massive for decades. For as long as we can
0:53
remember immigration has been the sole jurisdiction of the federal government. But the Supreme Court with the three liberals dissenting decided today that no Texas can go
1:05
forward with the law. Now with this on the books you've got to imagine Florida, Arizona, there's
1:12
going to be a plethora of states, some not even on the border, that are going to create similar
1:18
legislation and if they catch illegals in their states can deport them. This is
1:25
earthquake to immigration law, an earthquake. If the White House refuses to do its job
1:31
the states can now do the job the federal government is refusing to do. This takes a lot
1:37
of the power out of the hands of Joe Biden and it takes a lot of power out of the hands of the
1:42
federal government and I'm in favor of anything that takes power out of the hands of the federal
1:48
government. They got too much power already. I want you to watch this breathless breaking report
1:54
from CNN and then I really want your opinions on this guys so please make your comments when you

2:06
God bless you. Take care everybody. We're returning now to our breaking news. The Supreme
2:12
Court allowing Texas to begin enforcing its controversial immigration law. We're joined now
2:18
by Joan Biskupic. Joan, what do you make of this decision? Just yesterday it was put on hold
2:25
indefinitely. Now they're letting Texas move forward with enforcement of this law. Yeah
2:31
Boris, when they put it on hold indefinitely last night they were only doing it because they
2:35
weren't ready to issue this order. It wasn't anything final. They just essentially bought
2:40
themselves a few more hours of time. This is very, very big. It's saying that this law that allows
2:46
Texas to arrest and detain people who cross the border and are suspected of entering the
2:52
country illegally for Texas to use its own law enforcement powers against them. That really flies
2:58
in the face of decades and decades of federal immigration law. The Biden administration
3:06
had challenged this Texas law. It's commonly known as SB4. It was signed by Governor Abbott
3:13
back in December, really taking a hard law enforcement effort against people crossing
3:20
the border. The administration had said you can't do this. Federal immigration is our concern
3:26
And the merits of this dispute are playing out in lower courts. But the question was
3:32
should this law be allowed to take effect? A lower district court judge had said no
3:37
put the law on hold while the legal proceedings play out. But today the Supreme Court ensured
3:45
that that law can go forward. Now, just so you know, only three justices dissented here
3:50
and they were the liberal justices, Sonia Sotomayor, Katonji Brown-Jackson, and Elena Kagan
4:00
And I'll just read briefly from their dissent, because the majority itself did not explain
4:05
itself. It just had an order that said that Texas can enforce this. Two justices on the right did
4:14
concur in that. I'll get to that in a second. But I just want to explain what the dissenters wrote
4:19
They said, today the court invites further chaos and crisis in immigration enforcement
4:24
Texas passed a law that directly regulates the entry and removal of non-citizens
4:29
and explicitly instructs its state courts to disregard ongoing federal immigration proceedings
4:36
That law upends federal-state balance of power that has existed for over a century
4:41
That's what Justices Sotomayor and Jackson wrote. And then Justice Kagan wrote separately
4:49
So, Justice Kagan, you're going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
4:53
I'm going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
4:57
I'm going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
5:01
I'm going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
5:05
I'm going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
5:09
I'm going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
5:13
I'm going to be a judge. I'm going to be a judge
