If a president were checking a lawless law passed by a lawless Congress; in other words, if he was standing against a Congress or Court that had clearly breached their constitutional limits, I would support such action.

That is obviously not the case here. The Constitution is crystal clear that Congress has the exclusive grant of power to establish immigration and naturalization standards.

Article 1, Section 8:

"The Congress shall have Power...To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization..."

If Congress wasn't made up almost exclusively of moral and constitutional jellyfish the impeachment proceedings would be commencing this week.

he House may not want to grant what it sees as the Rat advantage of a Senate telling it where to shove its impeachment. But still. I’d say give this hot potato to the Democrats and let the public watch them do their partisan thing. Rats may not feel ashamed but the public will still see it as shameful.
