One legal expert says Gov. Greg Abbott's order which effectively blockaded the border last week could have violated the U.S. Constitution. Via TexasMonthly:
If Abbott is to be taken at his word, he was pursuing a pressure campaign against a foreign government, effectively blockading international trade—not only between Mexico and Texas but also between all of Latin America and all of the U.S. and Canada—all to force Mexican officials to the bargaining table.
One, the U.S. attorney general, Merrick Garland—a former judge whose extreme caution and slow pace of work is drawing fire from some Democrats in the White House and Congress—worried that Abbott would claim a lawsuit was politically motivated. “I suspect that Abbott would have been delighted to have been the defendant in a lawsuit by the federal government,” Levinson says, pointing to the governor’s eagerness to be seen butting heads with President Joe Biden.
