Discussion: Judge Denies DOJ Request To Remove Hold On Immigration Executive Actions

Discussion for article #235120

Can someone please explain how a single District Court judge in Texas can tell the White House what it can and cannot do? I am really confused…and have no doubts that this ruling will be overturned. It’s just another ineffectual attempt to delay and stymie the President from carrying out his Constitutional duties. Enough obstructionism from the GOP!

It’s called the law of the land and no one can ignore it, not even the White House. It’s not a single District Court judge that tells the WH what it can or can’t do, it’s a lawsuit by 26 States that is temporarily blocking the WH action.

You have not answered my question, and you present facts not in evidence. The White House is NOT ignoring the “law of the land.” Stop reading Newsmax, and/or listening to Fox “News.” Will a real lawyer please come forward to answer my original inquiry?

Let me try this one more time: Because of the law of the land, 26 States sued the Obama administration on it’s immigration executive action, then a single district judge placed a temporary hold on this action. The “single District Court judge in Texas” did not tell the Obama administration what it can or cannot do, the “single District Court judge in Texas” just followed the law of the land.

Please stop displaying your near-total ignorance of this subject. The President’s actions (or inactions) are completely within his prosecutorial discretion. Enough of the Fox “News” propaganda. That “single district court judge” has juridiction in his district, not the entire country. I’ll be glad to continue this discussion with someone who actually knows what they are talking about, not a Foxbot. We’re done, son.
