Texas set to bring volley of lawsuits against Biden administration

Illegal immigration—a virtue signaling, social justice issue to leftists up north—is a behemoth economic issue to Texas. Our schools, hospitals, correctional facilities, etc. bear a far greater burden than what those in Oregon, Massachusetts, and Maine carry.
The oil and gas situation speaks for itself.

The Biden administration has signaled a left-leaning agenda on energy, taxes, immigration, health care, and other priorities. Biden has vowed to rejoin the Paris Climate Accord and take far-reaching steps on climate change, including seeking to cut greenhouse gas emissions by half by 2030 and effectively ending them by around 2050, sparking existential fears from the fossil fuel industry, a key economic pillar in Texas.
Biden has also proposed sweeping immigration reform that would create a pathway to citizenship for more than 11 million illegal immigrants, and plans to roll back Trump’s corporate tax cuts and raise income tax.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who—while serving as the state’s attorney general—famously proclaimed, “I go into the office, I sue the federal government, and I go home,” said on Jan. 16 that the Biden White House can expect a spate of legal challenges from the Lone Star State.
“A new crop of Texas-led lawsuits awaits Joe Biden’s White House,” Abbott wrote in a tweet on Jan. 16.
“Texas will take action whenever the federal government encroaches on states’ rights, or interferes with constitutional rights, or private property rights or the right to earn a living.”

There are many Texans who pull for neither.

See the difference here is when a Trump judge rules against a Biden executive order they're just going to ignore that and do it anyways like they did for 8 years under Obama. And they're allowed to get away with that because no one pays attention.
When Trump got hit by an Obama judge 5 minutes after signing every EO he was forced to wait until it was OK'd by the Supreme Court.

Courts can’t play that card this time.

A noble statement. Did Texas live up to this standard and protect the private landowners who were having their land taken via eminent domain for the wall? Didn’t hear one way or another on this.

Holy false equivalency, Batman!
Did you not just read the excerpt in the OP, plus the OP's own opinion on immigration and how a crackdown is good for Texas as a whole?
Plus, do you even know how land on the border works?
Get back to me on that one.

Texas and probably Louisiana will be the first Red States to fall. They are easy to deal with, allow all the fence jumpers in.... cut off revenue stream i.e. oil.

Uh, we are already dropping CO2 emissions by a massive rate. More than what was asked for by the climate accords so far..
The largest transfer of wealth on history

In all fairness most of those landowners probably wanted the wall.

The idiot doesn't know what the illegals were doing to their land

The wineries don’t.
They’re concerned a wall will destroy the view.
Texas border land, unlike border land in the western states (federally owned), is owned by private citizens.
As long as it’s patrolled adequately—Fedgov has provided woefully insufficient support—the Rio Grande River is an ok deterrent in Texas.
But I certainly understand the desire for a wall in New Mexico, Arizona, and California.

Post your address as free room and board for”undocumented immigrants “ so the poor landowners don’t have to have the federal government help them stop the unlawful passage
