Original Note:
The "first" (and so far only) US Constitution was ratified in the 1780s by states that did not include Texas, as Gov. Noem's post implies. That Constitution was not the product of a treaty between nations. The federal government is responsible for border control. https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution/how-did-it-happen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supremacy_Clause https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2024-01-18/texas-governor-greg-abbott-border-patrol-mexico- https://www.findlaw.com/immigration/immigration-laws-and-resources/federal-vs-state-immigration-laws.html https://www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/outlook/article/abbott-constitution-texas-border-migrants-scotus-18628370.php
