Trump administration asks Supreme Court to immediately accept DACA case
Washington Post ^ | Jan. 18, 2018 | Robert Barnes

Posted on 01/18/2018 8:52:32 PM PST by Innovative

The Trump administration on Thursday night took the unusual step of asking the Supreme Court to immediately review and overturn a judge’s ruling that said the administration may not dismantle a program that provides work permits to undocumented immigrants raised in the United States.

Solicitor General Noel J. Francisco asked the court to add the case to its docket this term. That would be unusual because the justices usually wait for an appeals court to act before accepting a case, and because it is late in the game for the court to add cases to its oral argument calendar, which ends in April.

Dumb.

Are they going to appeal every unconstitutional edict from the lower courts to SCOTUS?

Might as well let the courts run the executive branch.

Like the blue states, media, both parties and corrupt state, the courts are in #resist mode, too.

Time to ignore these pieces of sh!t. Better yet, it’s time to disappear these pieces of sh!t.

My prediction...

The Supremes will reject Trump's case 9-0.

Most readers do not understand that Trump and Sessions have not made an Executive “policy” change, which they are allowed to do.

Instead, Trump and Sessions have claimed that Obama’s DACA is unconstitutional, and therefore it cannot be enforced.

The federal judge who rejected their case essentially said that Trump and Sessions have usurped the authority of the Judiciary, and that they have arbitrarily decided what is lawful and unlawful.

Bottom Line - Trump can revoke DACA anytime he wants to.

However, he needs to write an Executive Order that sounds like this:

“According to the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, the DACA kids and their parents are unlawfully present in the USA. Therefore, I order the Secretary of Homeland Security to remove all of them from the country.”

The Courts can't touch an Executive Order like that.

But, tragically, I don't think Trump will ever write an E.O. like that.

This is the trouble with lawlessness. There is no law for DACA. The original Obama EO was unconstitutional.

What did the judge make a ruling on?

There needs to be some kind of accountability for this type of foolishness.

President Trump may know that there may be some in-Justices missing and stationed in Gitmo where the rule of law will be enforced on the side of LEGAL America.

I wonder what the wise Latina will say? Or the ever lovable Elena Kagan?


Either one of these two may be swept up in the pedophile sting going down this weekend.

The scales of justice will have a finger removed.

SCOTUS needs to appoint a Master judge that deal with these types of issues between liberal appeal courts interfering with enumerated powers of another branch of government. The only other alternative is for Trump to just ignore the appeals court ... but I think that’s the Progressives are trying to provoke.

SCOTUS needs to get off their asses and do this. These little faggot Federal “judges” are overstepping their authority to run this country. It has to stop and these commie activist piggies need to be put in their place.

Sorry, SCOTUS may slap ‘em down but it’s CONGRESS that should get off its ass and put ‘em in their place. Or, better yet, *REMOVE* the activist ‘judges’.

Course, We got the ‘small govt’ (R)N(C) most voted in (and deserve), so I don’t see anything happening from the sh!thole called D.C.

Since O’Muslim did an illegal EO to make DACA, it should be appropriate for Trump to do a legal EO to get rid it. But that’s too simple for Washington D.C.

Coming from one who believes *ALL* EOs are illegal (I have yet to see one that doesn’t dabble in the ‘law-making’ side of things or attempted to subvert\thwart the Exec. responsibility of enforcing the Law): Zero’s EO creating DACA/DAPA is null and void, Trump needn’t write ANOTHER to rectify.

IMO, Trump should have, day ONE, written the FINAL EO: “ALL prior EOs are hereby null and void.”

Yup, and I just read that 10% of Arizona’s prison population were ‘dreamers’. Guess they were dreaming of commiting crimes against US citizens!

Unless that starts happening, these activist judges will continue to put their politics first.

If the 'daca kids' and their family members were Republicans they would have been kicked out yesterday.

"DACA is not a law."

Needs to be repeated that it was an Executive Order that any succeeding President can rescind.

DACA is not Congressional law. DACA is NOT law in any way - it is Executive Brand policy. DACA is a stroke of the pen by Obambi and all excepted it - no lawsuits.

Trump has the same authority to negate it. Trump should just ignore this liberal Judge's finding while citing the Separation of Powers clause. Just ignore it and make the Judge try to enforce it. I'm sick of everything having to go through the judicial system when a case is clearly Un-Constitutional. Said lawsuit should have been thrown out ASAP.

As an aside: Notice the talk of Trump impeachment has gone away about firing Comey? Even the dims/MSM are realizing that the Executive Branch has the power to hire or fire at will, with or without cause.

Nothings changed in how they see our nation....when behavior as this continues by illegals and legal immigrants who march in our streets waving their nations flag I cannot nor will I ever support mexicans coming here.

These photos are from Montebello High School in Montebello, California. As Michelle Malkin wrote on her web site March 29, 2006.

Whittier area students from Pioneer, California and Whittier high schools walked out of classes to protest the proposed federal immigration bill March 27, 2006. The protesters put up the Mexican flag over the American flag flying upside down at Montebello High. (
