    The fact that 10 U.S. Code § 2663 authorizes seizure of land for a list of purposes (eg “military training camps” & “coast defenses”) that doesn’t include building walls to keep immigrants out would be treated under the Steel Seizure decision as akin to a congressional ban.

        You know, I think they should start seizing land. Lots of folks in Texas and Arizona voted for this so hey, time to pony up.

        Professor Tribe - the coast defenses reasoning couldn't be modified to include national borders? I'm not arguing in favor of that, but I'm curious about your legal reasoning.

        And troops on the border are there to intimidate as British troops in Boston were. They are not doing anything accept being a menace or presence that is harmful to the community. Violation of 3rd Amendment No troops in our communities, not at our inns, parks, or homes.

        What, the Rio Grande doesn't count as coastal waters? It will once Trump redefines it as an inland sea. He won't let a little thing like geography stop him.

        I think I need punctuation or further clarification. Right now I can't decipher the meaning of this run-on sentence. It may be just me, but I just can't get the gist of it.

        Thank you for that! Some property owners at southern border would literally be living in Mexico because of unlawful seizure of their lands. Hopefully injured parties will seek court action stopping unlawful seizures.🇺🇸
