Among the thorny issues the court has tackled or could decide on are the legality of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program for undocumented young people brought to the country as children, the president’s travel ban on people from several Muslim-majority countries, and a lawsuit challenging the White House’s attempts to withhold federal funds from sanctuary cities.

Tough. Presidents nominate, not Senators. Elections have consequences.

Three realities the left wing mobsters don't want to discuss: Presidents nominate, not Senators. Elections have consequences.

So much winning! And why do just CA senators get a say in appointments to the 9th, it covers a lot more than just the cray-cray state.
