This is lunacy. If a President can use the sham of “prosecutorial discretion” to just disregard enforcing whatever laws he chooses as a matter of polilcy then how can anyone expect Congress to compromise on anything. They will know that whatever they receive in exchange for their concessions will not be enforced by the President so they get nothing back as a result of the “compromise.” Would Ms. Perinno agree that a President can use prosecutorial discretion to disregard the civil rights act?
I am still scratching my head about “prosecutorial discretion”.
President generally stay out of court cases, ie, for prosecutors to do their job, politicians should stay out.
I always thought prosecutors were independent of the political process. Is this codified?
Prosecutors discretion should be the prosecutor’s on a case by case basis, not a political policy.
