that’s why he got them to court asap. Regarding this idiot English, only a leftard could think that a job is hers and hers alone until the end of time. She was addicted to the power and couldn’t let go. Pathetic.

Nice to have a judge who understands the Constitution. The President gets to decide who runs a federal agency.

I would consider it winning if he fired the Bixxh.

Funny part about all of this is if the libs won, they would just hand down the leadership of this position from lib to lib. That wasn’t going to happen and the court recognized that.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the judge is overturned on appeal.

The appeal would go to the DC Circuit Appeal Court that is HEAVILY stacked with Obama/Reid judges.

By that time hopefully Trump will have his nominee in place. I think the whole thing should be shut down, it has served no good purpose.

I wonder if English was smart enough or fast enough to write herself a severance package?

I think that Cordray set her up in that position at the last second, no doubt conspiring with English and Warren to hide all of the crimes committed by these crooks.
