The recent Supreme Court ruling allowing the removal of razor wire along the southern border between Texas and Mexico has ignited a fierce debate between the Texas authorities and the US federal government.

This weekend, Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd strongly condemned the recent decision, stating that agents are against cutting down the barbed-wire fences.

In a recent appearance on Newsmax's Saturday Report, Judd expressed his disapproval of the Supreme Court ruling, which grants the federal government the constitutional authority to remove the barbed wire on the Texas-Mexico border. While the Border Patrol has been directed to dismantle the razor wire, the Texas National Guard has been actively installing more wire, which Judd clarified does not violate the Supreme Court ruling.

Judd emphasized that Border Patrol agents are united in their opposition to cutting down the razor wire. He told Newsmax, "There is not a Border Patrol agent out there that thinks it's okay to cut that razor wire. Unfortunately, because of the Supreme Court ruling, it becomes a lawful order."

The U.S. southern border has witnessed a record of at least 6.3 million migrant encounters at and between ports of entry since Biden took office in January 2021, according to data from the Office of Homeland Security Statistics, resulting in more than 2.4 million migrants allowed into the country.

This SCOTUS ruling has raised concerns among agents who believe that removing the razor wire compromises border security.

The conflict between Texas and the federal government extends beyond the Supreme Court ruling. The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Texas for its various tactics aimed at preventing illegal immigration. Texas, burdened with processing over 302,000 individuals at the US-Mexico border in December alone, has responded by sending approximately 100,000 migrants to sanctuary cities.

Judd expressed his desire to see comprehensive news coverage from these sanctuary cities, highlighting the need for informed decision-making. He emphasized the importance of the Biden administration providing transparent information to the American people, allowing them to make informed decisions in a democratic society.

Since President Biden assumed office, more than 10 million immigrants have reportedly entered the country illegally, marking a record number for any administration within a similar timeframe. This staggering figure underscores the growing concerns surrounding the Biden administration's bad border policies and their potential consequences for national security.
