“”Hes an Obama supporter but a brilliant Constitutionalist””
What a breath of fresh air to hear an obozo supporter actually tell it like it is but that’s the way it should be - loyalty to the US Constitution first. The hearing just ended and Turley was excellent. He didn’t pull any punches. He paints a “dire picture” (his words) of the legislative branch becoming irrelevant in light of the many decisions made from the executive branch.
He talked about “member standing” and said he has written numerous times about it and while I didn’t understand all of it, he apparently encourages members of congress to actually take their concerns to court and he said at one point that he has represented some members of congress in just such actions. I believe he is very concerned about the direction we are going.
It’s refreshing to know that we are not alone in wondering why the WH gets away with what they do and that just possibly, there is some remedy tho’ they were careful about using the “I” word....
Four witnesses and one was a jerk. All in all, time well spent - 3 1/2 hours..
