              How is it not a medical action? Or a naval action? Or any other action I make up? If you can’t show me it’s not the nonsense I make up then it must be the nonsense I made up ;)

                That seems like a great precedent to set. Send the military in to wherever, whenever, because the president wants to. That’s worked out so well for the rest of the world that I understand why you’d be down. I mean Texas even has oil.

                  The precedent has been set many times. If a states governor will not enforce federal laws or tries to interpret laws in their own warped way the federal government will let them know their mistake. Look at the 60’s in the South. Oh, and look at what part of the country is having trouble interpreting established law again…yeah.

                  Yes- at the US border. Pretty longstanding tradition that you fuck with US borders hard enough you fuck with the US military.

                  Maybe you should read some of the other responses. The framework for this has been clarified for you by more patient people than me- you’re just being kind of willfully ignorant at this point.
