Afederal judge on Tuesday ruled that the Nancy Pelosi-led House of Representatives acted unconstitutionally in December 2022 when it passed a $1.7 trillion federal budget.
U.S. District Court Judge James Wesley Hendrix ruled that Pelosi, then speaker of the House, violated the Constitution by allowing members to vote without actually being at the Capitol for the Dec. 23 session at which the budget was adopted, according to Reuters.
At the time of the budget’s passing, CNBC referred to the action as “the final major achievement” of Pelosi’s term as speaker of the House. The budget passed 225-201.
At the time the budget was almost three months late. Budgets are theoretically supposed to be in place by the Oct. 1 start of the federal fiscal year but are rarely adopted on time. This year, for example, Congress has not yet approved a full budget almost five months into the federal fiscal year.
Hendrix, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, said he did not block the entire budget, which ran through Sept. 30, 2023.
Texas wanted to block two provisions ultimately. On one, the state lost. Hendrix ruled Texas did not have standing to attack $20 million in the budget that funded services to illegal immigrants while they were undergoing immigration removal proceedings.

Our elected officials ,apparently don’t understand the constitution. You would think somebody would have brought this up at the proceedings. It just continues to show the dumbing down of our schools has worked perfectly, for the communists/socialist for the past 40 years.
Pecker puss Pelosi used Covid to ignore the law just like the Dems did implement mass mail in votes to steal the 2020 election. A law gets in the way of what they want? No problem.
What do you expect?
Democrats wipe their asses with the constitution.
bttt
So it's official now ...
the law be damned ...
Do as you please, by the time someone tells you to stop it will be to late.
There will be no consequences .... no repair .. the damage will be done.
How about violation of oath?
How about violation of rights under color of law?
A bill never legally passed has force ... well then ...
dark time ahead ..... lawless time
And nothing gets done to them, nothing! how about that insider trading! again nothing is done
No hiding blame in the herd.
There is a name attached to the violation of Constitutional law.
Arrest and confine Pelosi until her trial. Bail is set at $455M similar to like it was for Trump.
Well to a Democrat, no only means no when they say it should.
“They” say that the devil does not see itself in a mirror.
That is because, its ego *will not reflect* upon itself, its thinking, its actions.
That ego is terrified of the truth.
How about the last 40 years or so... The only thing special about this year is fianlly the House is standing up to the RINOs who tried to sell the country down the river, yet again, in the Seante. Sad that for that action Turdle took so much heat that he is leaving the leadership of the Senate sell-out do nothings.
Pelosi stinks at defining the Constitution.
OTOH, she’s a whiz at insider stock trading.
Fait Accompli..........
The judge ruled that Texas “did not have standing” to challenge the 2nd provision that Texas was challenging. But plenty of people DO have “standing” and, for those that do, there is now a PRECEDENT that will be useful in challenging other provisions of the broader law. THIS IS GOOD!
I will argue that Pelosi is not an insider trading whiz. I will argue she lacks the knowledge to understand the situations. I will argue her capitol staff communicates the inside information to her financial staff bypassing Nancey completely for the simple reason she just gats in the way.
Bidens entire presidency is unconstitutional!
