In a rare move, the Supreme Court expedites consideration for a major case coming from the Trump administration.
On Friday, the justices ordered the ACLU to file responses to the Department of Justice regarding President Trumps executive order on travel from six terror-prone countries.
This comes after the DOJ asked for a stay on an appellate courts decision to block part of the order until justices can decide the matter.
However, the Supreme Courts decision could push everything up by months and justices could hold arguments on the case before summer recess.
Doesn’t matter what Obama said about it. There was no law mandating that you buy insurance. Instead there was a tax on people that didn’t. It clearly was a tax. It’s hard to see how Roberts is wrong about that. That doesn’t make Obamacare constitutional, it just means that the individual mandate argument wasn’t the winning argument.
It never would have been passed by Congress if it were sold as a tax.
Maybe not, but doesn’t really matter. Congress passes a written piece of legislation. What matters is what it says. What a judge has to rule on is what it says.
I do too, but let me say I wouldn't put it past one of the squishes on the so called right to fold. I seriously doubt the ones on the left will rule against the lower court. No recusal from Ginsburg, there are no rules for the left that go against their agenda.
I expected Obamacare to be overturned as well, I think we all know how that worked out.
Pray for America.
We should pray. The forces of evil are aligned against our remaining a free, sovereign nation inder God.
