Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stiff blew off the fact that the Supreme Court is indeed "the final arbiter of the law," and states aren't allowed to openly defy their rulings as we're seeing Gov. Greg Abbott do in Texas.

Here's Stitt on this Friday's The Lead with Jake Tapper, claiming that Abbott and the rest of his enablers are above the law because they don't agree with the recent ruling by the Supreme Court that allows the Biden administration to remove razor wire installed by the Texas National Guard along the border to deter migrants.

TAPPER: What Governor Abbott is doing, and what you and the other governors who have written this letter are supporting is defying the US Supreme Court. And I wonder if you have any concern that this opens the door for, let's say, Democratic governors to defy US Supreme Court decisions with which they disagree, let's say on gun rights. Because they think it's in the interest of public safety, even if the Supreme Court says what they want to do is unconstitutional.
