The administration's best hope for a favorable ruling after 90 minutes of
arguments at the high courtMonday appeared to rest with Chief Justice
John Roberts. Roberts asked questions suggesting he could side with the
administration if there is a small change in the proposed programs.
What questions ? ? — Geeez …
I know - right? And that’s the low hanging fruit.
Is it too much to ask TMP to provide the obvious information. Now I am going to have to go to a different site.
Well… I did find this —
Solicitor General Donald Verrilli Jr. told the justices that they could get rid of that phrase and essentially leave the programs unchanged. “If the court wants to put a red pencil through it, that’s totally fine,” Verrilli said.
Later in the arguments, Roberts sounded interested in that idea, asking lawyer Erin Murphy if the court could, in fact, just “cross it out.”
Since it was an Executive Action and not an act passed by Congress, why would it be a problem for the Administration to merely cross out the offending phrase, if it means meeting the scrutiny of John Roberts? Seems like it should be easily doable.
Sure … to you… and I ---- ( but I don’t think we are against “everything Obama” ) —
To those that are … I’m sure it would be an extremely heavy lift —
This is an AP story. I wish TPM had filed their own on this, maybe they will.
Really, who else but AP would have put a “seem divided” headline over a story like this?
It is an AP story but they gave Tierney Sneed a by-line. She didn’t do any independent reporting, just fed it into the computer. I feel sorry for the young reporters at TPM. They are never allowed to do anything more than copy and paste. I see Tierney is up with a longer version of the same story. Good for her.
The Supreme Court appears divided
Hilarious, is this The Onion?
The real questions are why these immigrants so different from those like my grandparents in coming here, obeying our laws, going through the processes for years, and serving this nation as proof of their willingness to be like Americans?
But no, they riot, they march with their national, not American flags, and attack Trump supporters.
As a vet, I grow tired of these people…if they had any right to anything in this nation, they are starting to the working middle class and military veterans against them.
The left needs votes, hence pimps these peoples with promises and handouts, unlike my family who made it on their own and spoke and wrote a different alphabet, and all 10 of 12 brothers served since WW I thru Nam, and I thru Nam thru Gulf War II…what are these Hispanic immigrants real complaints?
And why are they coming here if their value system, way of life, and own country was so good - simple reason is they like their homeland have problems of the self and they are bringing them to our shores, demanding what none deserve.
And why is the left paying for their schooling, upkeep and everything else in between - take a read from Lenin’s playbook, and you will soon see the simplicity in their treason. This is not about humanity or social justine, or immigration reform - it is about power, socialist power.
I think you have part of this wrong. Both the R and Ds want to allow them to stay. Do you listen to what they say at all? It’s always along the lines we can’t ask 12 M people to leave used by both the Rs and the Ds.
What I have never understood is why illegal immigrants and those here on expired Visas believe they have a right to stay.
Nor do I understand how they think they should be waving their flag in OUR country. It’s almost like I’m here and you can’t make me leave rubbing it in our faces.
The Republicans want them here to drive down wages because an over supply of labor automatically drives wages lower. Democrats should also realize that if they want them here for their votes that may not work out. I do believe GWB got something along the liens of 49% of the Hispanic vote. Not all iHispanics or Asians vote Democratic. By the way, Asians are now flooding our country in numbers higher than Hispanics.
