Federal judge signals he's dubious of Texas' controversial 'show me your papers law'

If the first three hours of arguments in the lawsuit over Texas' controversial new immigration bill are any indication, a federal judge in Austin isn't buying it. During Thursday's trial opening, Judge David A. Ezra of the Western District of Texas appeared skeptical about the constitutionality of Texas' law, which would allow state and local police to arrest and deport migrants who cross the border illegally. During questioning, Ezra directed the majority of his questions to the lawyer for Texas' attorney general and repeatedly "took jabs" at state legislators, at one point saying "a little more care" should have gone into drafting the law, according to the Texas Tribune.
