Yes. It seems to be a law based objection. Very good...

Zero sure didn’t care for prosecutorial discretion in the St Swisher and “I can’t breathe” situations

That was actually a very good thing that Cruz did.
He exposed 23 “republicans” that disregard the Constitution as the authority.

Yep. I cannot remember who said it recently but they said prosecutorial discretion can be applied case by case but when it is applied to whole groups of people, the executive becomes a legislator.

It’s not going to stop him.
It’ll be overturned on appeal.
But thanks for playing. :)

McConnell and Boehner in a panic trying to figure out how to ignore this.

prosecutorial discretion being cited is like the difference between a DA not pursuing a drug offense and not pursuing any drug offenses.

Because it collectively removes the intent and spirit of prosecutorial discretion of the individual, with zero regard for the plea of a human right obligation, for the individual.
I don’t have a problem with hearing each case for its merits and extenuating circumstances.
I do have a problem with carte blanche designating an overwhelming group of people special and unique status, over and above what a similar individual standard is for a legal entrant, who waits years, goes through the proper processes and spends thousands of dollars to fulfill a dream of becoming an American.
These people did not come here to become an American and only a few ever will but, only as a matter of contrived expediency.

That is because his claim is a facile rationalization, just as was his claim that he couldn't grant amnesty six years ago.
0bama wanted the issue as a wedge for most of his pResidency, hence, he did not move on illegal amnesty. Now that time is running out on his tenure, he understands that he must grandfather as many illegals as possible to secure future elections before his term expires, and since he will not stand for election again, the wedge issue is no longer useful to his purposes anyway.
If you're looking for the consistency in 0bama's policies, it's easy to find: Grab as much power as political expediency will allow you to have. He has been 100% consistent under that maxim.

She can stay for the night.
But in the morning she has to go home.

More importantly from the Federal judiciary's point of view, the prosecutor effectively becomes a judge and jury as well.

She can immigrate to my house.
We can pretend to be husband and wife, even. But we’d have to make it very convincing.
