Is Texas Being 'Invaded'? Here's What the Founding Fathers Would Say
from The Justin Haskins Show · host Justin Haskins
A huge legal battle is being waged in federal court over a law in Texas that's designed to deter people from illegally entering the United States. Normally, laws related to immigration fall under the authority of the federal government. Texas, however, claims this is a special situation, because it's being "invaded," and under the Constitution, states have the authority to defend themselves when an invasion is occurring. In this episode of "The Justin Haskins Show," New York Times/Wall Street Journal bestselling author Justin Haskins previews the inevitable Supreme Court case about Texas's invasion argument by examining what the Founding Fathers would think about Texas's law and how it relates to the Constitution. 00:00 Intro03:00 Background5:15 Constitutional Powers10:20 The Founders16:11 Pennamite–Yankee War23:05 Pirates28:05 America TodayTo read more, check out my article with Newsweek: https://www.newsweek.com/texas-being-invaded-founding-fathers-would-say-yes-opinion-1887113For more information about Justin Haskins, read his profile published on JustinHaskins.com here: https://justinhaskins.com/2023/05/about-justin-haskinsFor great videos featuring Justin, go here: https://www.youtube.com/@JustinTHaskinsAlso, be sure to visit Stopping Socialism TV, founded by Justin Haskins and Donald Kendal, here: https://www.youtube.com/@StoppingSocialismTV
