It is very late in the game on both counts.
I join in your prayers, Jeff. At this late stage of the game, however, I'm inclined to believe the latter is of principal importance.
Jeb Bush at this point would have to go into the hospice by the grace of the Sheriff, whom the courts have advised to prevent -- by means of force, we are to assume -- executive branch officials from entering. I find it appalling that a judge would even think to order the Governor to not exercise his statutory powers. To me, this is clearly an act of judicial usurpation. I cannot believe that such a thing can be allowed to stand.
Judge Greer has opined that the powers of the Governor are not superior to his own. But Greer has no executive authority, although he is acting as if he had.
Whether Governor Bush has the moral fortitude to stand up to this overweening tyrant remains to be seen. A little story from our history that I recall: Justice John Marshall once upon a time subpoenaed then-sitting President Thomas Jefferson to appear as a witness in Aaron Burr's trial. TJ refused, taking the position that the judicial branch had no constitutional authority to issue a subpoena to the chief executive officer, under the separation of powers doctrine. TJ basically took the position, "If you want me, then you'll have to come and get me. And then we'll have a full-blown constitutional crisis on our hands." Marshall -- very wisely, I think -- backed off, and that was the end of the matter.
Governor Bush must defend the prerogatives of his office and refuse to be bound by an illegitimate order issued by an out-of-control state judge. Just my humble opinion, for whatever it's worth.
Thanks so much, Jeff, for writing -- and for all the good works that you do.
