Originally published at: Full DC Circuit Unfires—For Now—NLRB, MSPB Board Members That Trump Lawlessly Axed
The full U.S. Court of Appeals for DC has reinstated a member of the National Labor Relations Board and a member of the Merit Systems Protection Board that President Donald Trump tried to fire earlier this year. The court split 7-4. The ruling — on a set of district court injunctions that paused the firings…

YaY! Though means little since Trump doesn’t care about the courts.

People who are infantile 78 year old sociopaths who have never been told “NO” deserve their comeuppance, albeit way too f_ckin’ late.

Yeah well, let’s see if this maladministration actually follows the order first before we jump up and down with joy claiming the rule of law must be followed by order of the court.
I’m all for good news but if no real compliance is demonstrated or takes place, is it really good news?
Hope someone is there to unlock the doors when they all show up or have their desks already been removed? I saw they did that to one agency that was ordered back only to find out they had nowhere to sit and do their work.

The markets are crashing because: i) the tariffs were not high enough, ii) corruption at Treasury, Commerce, IRS, and the Federal Reserve, iii) the Deep State and Democrats were shorting the market because they hate America and want the President to fail.
The President, the Family, the Organization, and Party will rescue the stock market by pumping liquidity, and eliminating income tax for all individual taxpayers.

Shorter dissent: Trump’s decision to violate the law establishing the terms of office holders was faithful execution of the laws as the Constitution intended.

Agree completely – but the problem is they’re taking us all down with them.

“All people had to do…”
Wrong. They also needed to fill in “that little oval” next to the Democratic candidates for US Representative, and (if on their ballot) US Senator. Never forget how Republican-dominated Congresses have halted Democratic agendas in their tracks for decades now.

How many divisions does the appellate court have to stop Trump’s lawlessness?
People are talking about impeaching Trump, but that would lead directly to President Vance. Do you really want that? I want a functioning Congress to do it’s job. We can’t have a functioning Congress because the parties have rigged things so that it is hard for Democrats to elect anybody in red states. The Congress has been neutered. We are truly fucked if the Democrats don’t start trying to win in red states.

I don’t think this Congress would fall into line under a president Vance because 1) no one is intimidated by him, and 2) he makes Ted Cruz seem likeable.

“this meant that Hitler’s personal whims were seen as more important than precedent, law or the opinion of others. The Fuhrer, by definition, never be incorrect in his views or pronouncements and they should therefore be followed without question.”

Think I’m seeing this now.
