What if the Scotus is asked for a stay in implementation of these presidential actions until the special Congressional Tribunal hears the case? Why is this NOT permissible when the Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to institute these special tribunals? Can any lawyers here explain why this is not a possible course of action?

I'm not a lawyer, but I can explain why that is not a possible course of action.

There is NO WILLPOWER from the Oligarchy and their leadership to do such a thing, inasmuch as they have told us that "Impeachment is off the table".

Well, if impeachment is off the table, this would require a tribunal which would simply invalidate a particular action of the president.

Incidentally, I’ve gotten one response from a lawyer who said the only actions possible are impeachment, de-funding, and lawsuits.
