The Department of Justice says it intends to sue Texas Gov. Greg Abbott over the use of a floating border barrier, which it says is in violation of federal law and raises humanitarian concerns.

As seriously fucked up as this situation is, I don’t see how the DOJ plans to win this. Texas has a good argument any way you look at it, thanks to Trump and his “build a wall” bullshit.
I think it’d look a little something like this: https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/22/us/border-wall-shipping-container-arizona-lawsuit/index.html
From reading that, it seems they agreed to take down the makeshift wall specifically to allow for the permanent wall to go up. I don’t think that’s a reasonable comparison to this weird floating thing Texas is doing.
