The razor wire fencing at the Texas-Mexico border installed by the state had prohibited federal border agents from performing their duties. The Supreme Court sided with the Biden Administration to have it removed, and of course, controversial Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene somehow equated that with communism. The host of Real America's Voice said that it is allowing an invasion at our border. Of course, none of this makes sense. And Republicans don't want anything passing from this administration because it would help Biden in the 2024 election.

"And you, I noticed you mentioned the disastrous unconstitutional ruling by the Supreme Court yesterday, basically allowing the federal government to allow an invasion on our southern border," the host said. "How concerned are you with that and then the implications that that could have with their decisions around President Trump on the ballots going forward, especially with this lawfare weaponization of the justice system against President Trump?"

I'm not sure what this has to do with the former President.

"Right," Marge said. "This is how communism starts."

No, it's not.

"I was just talking to a New Hampshire voter right here, an independent," she insisted. "And he was saying that statism is a concern, that big government is a concern. That's what the Biden administration absolutely has brought is big, powerful government, which is communism."

"I'm extremely concerned about that Supreme Court ruling," she continued. "We literally saw a ruling that's going to put the federal government at war with the state of Texas. What's going to be happening with the Border Patrol?"

"What is going to be happening with Texas law enforcement?" the biggest supporter of the Jan 6 defendants said. "Are we actually going to see them fighting with one another?"

"Here's the federal government, Ben, let me tell you, Secretary Mayorkas and Joe Biden and his administration are violating, literally violating the Constitution," she continued. "Article four, section four says in the Constitution that the federal government's role is to defend the states from invasion. And then we have a ruling from the Supreme Court."

"You talk about this is the most radical, devastating thing that we have seen happen in a Supreme Court ruling," she added. "And I think Texas needs to stand their ground and we should join Texas in their fight against the federal government to defend their state, defend their border, defend their people.
And I'm calling for that right now."

She's calling for Texas to defy a Supreme Court ruling while encouraging a fight between the federal government and Texas. As far as Article four, section four goes, it's to protect against an invasion. We are not being invaded. Invasion is "an instance of invading a country or region with an armed force." Where is the armed force, Marge?
