    Though this order is temporary, the result is quite surprising. Texas’s law, which allows state officials to arrest migrants and state courts to order them deported to Mexico, violates 150 years of settled law establishing that the federal government, and not the states, gets to decide which foreign nationals may enter or remain in the United States.

    I think we can safely say that there is no longer such a thing as “settled law”. JFC I just cannot with these illegitimate hacks.
