If we were being invaded by a uniformed army from a foreign country, would we need to wait for a decision by the Supremes?
The Commander-in-Chief has declared a national emergency, has he not?
First of all these are not ‘armed’ people and neither do they declare they are at war with the US. Therefore it’s still an ‘immigration’ issue and handled differently regardless how angry it makes us.
Declaring National emergencies is not uncommon in this case as Trump stated...”We have an invasion of drugs and criminals coming into our country,” Further he anticipated legal challenges in announcing the emergency which of course are now in the courts.
However declaring this nat’l emergency did give him broader powers which he’s currently using as we’ve seen on the border.
Probably! We would have to!
Like it or not we seem to be paralyzed by these district court decisions. I see where Trump is going to fast track the issue as to whether these courts have that kind of jurisdiction or not. I guess they are going to take a chance with Roberts.
