Texas judge rules apprehension of illegal immigrant by soldiers during Gov Greg Abbott's 'Operation Lone Star' along Rio Grande was UNCONSTITUTIONAL, opening floodgates for claims from others arrested
2022-01-14
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • Operation Lone Star was created by Abbott amidst a wave of illegal immigrants from Honduras and El Salvador crossing the US-Mexico border

  • Judge Jan Soifer ruled in favor of Jesus Alberto Guzman Curipoma, an Ecuadorian engineer arrested in September and charged with trespassing

  • Angelica Cogliano, Curipoma's lawyer, said that Operation Lone Star was unconstitutional because it tries to supersede federal immigration law

  • She added that Curipoma was jailed rather than being considered for asylum, which is within his right

  • Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza, acting on behalf of the state, actually agreed with the argument that Operation Lone Star violates federal law

  • David A. Schulman filed on behalf of the state in Kinney County, where he argued the case should be heard, because that's where Curipoma was arrested

#5  First of all they're acting at the state not federal level, thus not subject to the posse comitatus constraints. Second like any citizen, they can be deputized by proper authority.

#4  Appeal. Trespassing is a crime no matter who commits it. Lock 'em up.

Why was this Soros-funded tool allowed to represent the State?

#2  Did the judge also order the Feds to do their job?

#1  Fine, order the guard to repel all attempts by foreign invaders using gunfire. We aren't repelling immigration but an actual invasion.
