Janet Napolitano sues Trump’s DHS to preserve her DACA amnesty
The Washington Times ^ | Sept 8, 2017 | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 09/08/2017 1:20:08 PM PDT by jazusamo

The woman who created the 2012 deportation amnesty for Dreamers filed a lawsuit Friday protesting the Trump administration’s move to phase out the program, saying the decision was done on President Trump’s executive “whim.”

Janet Napolitano, who as President Obama’s Homeland Security secretary created the DACA program, is now the president of the University of California, and is leading the school system’s lawsuit demanding the program be reinstated.

She said her school system stands to lose money and the chance to educate some of its 4,000 illegal immigrant students, as well as perhaps having to let go its illegal immigrant staff.

“We really support out DACA students and part of the reason we’re filing this lawsuit it to help protect their rights,” Ms. Napolitano said.

Butchie, you’re supposed to know the law. But you must be grandstanding and/or lying about the law or both.

Stop acting like such a dumb@ass, you’re giving all ugly bull dykes a bad name.

Boo hoo - the Dreamers amnesty was an illegal action taken by Obama in violation of his Constitutional obligation to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed."

Everything that Janet Napolitano says is false.

Everything.

...saying the decision was done on President Trump’s executive “whim.”

To understand her derangement, we must first understand that for Leftists, the essence of the US Constitutions is in a state of quantum super positions. The nature of the Constitution instantly changes to the position they need to push their agenda as soon as it is referenced. The contradictory natures are:

1) An outdated and discredited document written by slave owners that should have no part in our current time.

2) Not a document at all, but a concept that validates any Left leaning notion of ethics that the user feels it ought to validate.

3) A written contract that contains language that "everybody knows" is in the Constitution--excepting that the language is actually not in it. For example this particular form has language establishing a "wall of separation between Church and State" with a meaning that has nothing to do with the actual intent of those words when Jefferson was writing a letter to a Church. And so forth.

So given that anything "Constitutional" is governed by whichever the contradictory natures suits the Leftist at the time, the notion that Trump is just following the proper role of the President by making the Legislature make the Law, is incomprehensible to Leftists. Actually reading and understanding the actual Constitution is condemned as unthinkable by the Left because of super position 1 above.

Also the notion that President Obama did anything improper by forming DACA by executive order is supported by super position 2 above. And possibly some ad hoc canards from super position 3 if a Leftist is pushed on the point to acknowledge the Constitution is a real document and not just their feelings. And of course if you show them that the canards are not actually in the Constitution and establish the real meaning of what was agreed to by the Founders, you will be countered by super position 1.

This is the same woman that kept a 175 million dollar slush fund for her and her staff that even the UC regeants didn’t know about. At the same time, she was raising tuition on students.

Doesn’t sound to me like someone that cares about anything but her globalist agenda.

These DACA folks got an education in this country, some of them earned doctorates and medical degrees.

Yet, with all this education, they STILL don’t know that DEFERRED ACTION means just what it says.

Action was deferred and NOW payment is due.

over due actually...

Rest assured that if you dug deep enough into this story, you’d find Eric Holder.

No doubt about it, Holder has to do something to earn his pay in the prune picker state.

It took some doing to find it, but here is the Complaint.

I get tired of all the bloviating by the press who keep forgetting that the case in court is what was actually filed.

Here is an essential part of the Complaint (link at post #30).

4. The University directly benefited from the DACA program, in its capacities as educator and employer. UC has approximately 4,000 undocumented students, a substantial number of whom are DACA recipients. Many of its staff members are also DACA recipients. These individuals make important contributions to University life, expanding the intellectual vitality of the school, filling crucial roles as medical residents, research assistants, and student government leaders, and increasing the diversity of the community.

Well, on an attack for failure to state a claim for which relief may be granted, the problem is that this is not a "benefit" to the University of California, but a burden on the tax-payers of California who support UC through taxes. Furthermore it is well known that entrance into UC is highly competitive and therefore these 4,000 are displacing students who are qualified and cannot attain admission.

Continuing, here is another argument that is specious:

Complaint (see post #30) pargraph 5. Agency action is invalid under the APA if it is “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law,” or if it is taken “without observance of procedure required by law.” 5 U.S.C. § 706(2). To survive judicial review under the APA, an agency must “articulate a satisfactory explanation for its action including a ‘rational connection between the facts found and the choice made.’” Motor Vehicle Mfrs. Ass’n of the U.S., Inc. v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 463 U.S. 29, 43 (1983). In determining whether an agency has complied with this requirement, a court must conduct a “thorough, probing, in-depth review” of the agency’s reasoning and a “searching and careful” inquiry into the factual underpinnings of the agency’s decision. Citizens to Preserve Overton Park, Inc. v. Volpe, 401 U.S. 402, 415–16 (1971). Here, in multiple respects, Defendants failed to “articulate a satisfactory explanation” for their action that would enable a court to conclude that the decision was “the product of reasoned decisionmaking.” State Farm, 463 U.S. at 52.

But the problem here is that DACA is not a regulatory action taken by an agency in accordance with authorities granted by public law, but an extra-legal action. If the agency lacked the discretion to adopt the regulation, then it is void on its face.

Thanks...I scrolled to the end of the complaint to see what they want but your post here says it all in my view.

These people are not a benefit but a huge burden.

But the biotch will run it through the 9th Circus, and guess what they will decide? Then the Supremes will need to handle this one. Just break up the 9th, forever.

ICE should be all over this demanding the names of all these criminals, for deportation.

“saying the decision was done on President Trump’s executive “whim.””

So, in her world, something unconstitutional, established on an executive whim, cannot be undone by another executive whim.

I kept looking for the satire tag but then remembered we are dealing with liberal logic.

"She said her school system stands to lose money"

Is that BEFORE or AFTER she HID THE SCHOOL'S MONEY? And WHY didn't she do JAIL TIME FOR THAT?
