Here is a clip of Jeff Sessions (Current AG nominee) asking Sally Yates (the acting AG fired by Trump last night) if she'd be willing to refuse improper or unlawful requests by the executive branch. The context is important: She was being asked if she'd ever stand up to the (Democrat) President if he presented her a request that was improper or unconstitutional. She Answered in the affirmative. She was confirmed 84-12-4. Sessions voted against her.

So what?

What she was opposing isn't unconstitutional

Who gives a frick what she thinks. She's toast and exactly baht Washington was a fricks show. She thinks on her own "feelings", she can not enforce written law. Good move for us though, another idiotic bitch outta the system.

You guys keep throwing this line out yet many many constitutional scholars argue it is unconstitutional. Why not let the courts decide?

Please explain to me how this Executive Order is unconstitutional? I don't support it but not because it is unconstitutional.

Wouldn't it be kind of hard to let the courts decide if the DOJ never defended it in court?

The order WAS vetted by the Justice Department lawyers and the acting AG chose to go against what they determined.

he should have asked her if she would stand up if the president requested something that contradicted her feelings
