Original Note:
No, The Supreme Court did not side against the Constitution. Texas' attempt to enforce immigration law falls under the federal government's established border authority. The Supremacy Clause (Article VI, Clause 2) establishes that federal law supersedes state law. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/supremacy_clause https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/state/2024/03/18/supreme-court-hold-sb4-texas-law-allowing-police-to-arrest-migrants/73022690007/
