Ted Cruz criticizes Supreme Court for supporting Biden on Texas border issue
Sen. Ted Cruz Slams Supreme Court for Ruling Against Texas Border Security
In a fiery episode of his ”Verdict” podcast, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) expressed his outrage at the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to side with the Biden administration in its fight against Texas’ efforts to secure its border with Mexico.
The Supreme Court ruled that the administration could remove sections of razor wire that Texas had placed along the border to prevent the influx of illegal immigrants under the Biden administration. This ruling did not sit well with Cruz.
“This is a horrible decision. I’m angry about it,” Cruz declared. “It is deeply disturbing. We are witnessing an invasion at our southern border, with 9.6 million illegal immigrants crossing under Joe Biden. This is deliberate. He wants this to happen. It is the worst illegal immigration crisis in our nation’s history.”
Cruz pointed out that the decision was made by the Court’s left-wing justices, as well as Justices John Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett. Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh all voted against the Biden administration’s request.
“There is a heavy presumption in Washington and federal courts that the federal government trumps the states,” Cruz explained. “But the Constitution’s supremacy clause states that federal laws are the supreme law of the land. I believe it is a real problem that John Roberts is disconnected from what is happening at the southern border. Amy Coney Barrett, as a law professor from Indiana, lacks understanding of the situation as well.”
Expressing his frustration, Cruz emphasized, “What the justices fail to grasp is the severity and lawlessness of the Biden administration’s actions. No president has ever disregarded the law like Joe Biden has.”
Cruz accused Biden of intentionally creating the crisis at the border and having no intention of resolving it. He asserted, “He wants more illegal immigrants. Biden is actively fighting against Texas to prevent border security. That’s what they want. They want this invasion. And the Biden administration has the unwavering support of every Democrat in Congress.”

The Supreme Court’s decision blocking Texas from securing its border is horrible.
The Court does not appreciate the lawlessness of Biden’s refusal to enforce border security laws. He is destroying our country and enabling an invasion.https://t.co/hdWGvGlJCR pic.twitter.com/VFy8ffdb1u

How does Senator Cruz characterize the Supreme Court’s ruling on Texas’ efforts to secure the border?
Of deference to the executive when it comes to immigration and border policy,” Cruz explained. “But this goes beyond that. This is a clear example of judicial activism. These justices are making activist decisions instead of interpreting the law. They are putting their own political ideologies ahead of the safety and security of the American people.”
Cruz went on to emphasize the importance of securing the border, not only to prevent illegal immigration, but also to protect American citizens from the dangers posed by drug cartels and human traffickers. He highlighted the alarming statistics of illegal border crossings under the Biden administration and criticized the lack of action taken by the federal government to address the issue effectively.
“Joe Biden and his administration are failing in their duty to protect our borders,” Cruz asserted. “They are ignoring the rule of law and undermining the sovereignty of our nation. It is a dereliction of duty, and it is putting American lives at risk.”
The senator from Texas also expressed his disappointment with the Supreme Court, which he believed had failed to fulfill its role as a check on executive overreach. He called for the need for justices who are committed to upholding the Constitution and adhering to the principles of limited government.
“We need justices who are committed to the Constitution, who understand the importance of the separation of powers, and who will defend the rights of the American people,” Cruz stated. “Unfortunately, we currently have a Supreme Court that leans towards judicial activism rather than judicial restraint. This ruling is proof of that.”
Cruz concluded by emphasizing the urgency of the situation at the border and the need for immediate action. He called on his fellow conservatives and Americans in general to stand up and demand a secure border.
“We cannot stand by and allow our borders to be overrun,” Cruz declared. “We must demand that our government take immediate action to secure the border, enforce our immigration laws, and put an end to this crisis. It is up to us to hold our elected officials accountable and ensure the safety and security of our nation.”
As the Biden administration continues to face criticism over its handling of the border crisis, Senator Ted Cruz has made his voice heard by condemning the Supreme Court’s ruling against Texas’ efforts to secure its border. With his fiery remarks and passionate defense of border security, Cruz is championing the cause of American citizens who are impacted by the illegal immigration crisis. His call for justices committed to the Constitution and an immediate resolution to the border crisis resonates with conservatives and concerned citizens alike. It remains to be seen how this issue will evolve, but with Cruz at the forefront, the fight for a secure border continues.
