There is no question that the president of the United States simply lacks constitutional authority to hand $1.2 billion to farmers simply because they are black. It is even questionable whether the Constitution, even as it has been distorted to date, can be torqued enough to justify handing federal money to people because of their color. So how is this going to be accomplished?
Liberals favorite game changer is to simply change the rules in mid-play. If they don't like the result they are getting in state legislatures, they try Congress. If they don't like the results they get in Congress, they try the courts. If they still like the results, they try international treaties. If they still do like the results, for example with respect to affirmative action and universities' admissions, they simply together decide not to enforce the law and not to observe the law. The same is obviously true with respect to illegal immigration.
Since the American public would not stand for handing $1.2 billion to farmers just because they happen to be black, the deal is set up by way of the lawsuit which the Attorney General settles and the Democrat majority ratifies and, presto, you have a ratified result of an unconstitutional, grossly unpopular socialist and redistributionist political ploy.
Let the lawsuit be played out and let the government pay a judgment if there is one. Any judge who approves such a settlement is acting in violation of the Constitution and in violation of the separation of power. No court should permit itself to be manipulated by the other branches of government in this fashion. No legislature should permit itself to condone unconstitutional and undemocratic redistribution of wealth under the guise of a judicial action. These are flat out frauds. This is tyranny dressed in black robes.
