what do you think the check on the executive branch should be?

Do you think executive decisions should be unchallengeable?

Sure, but not 677 random “checkers”. Much higher level should be needed to issue an injunction on POTUS, with very few having that power.

Yes. Easily.

Executive orders exist for the President to direct executive agencies in carrying out legislation passed by Congress. They do not exist for the President to bypass Congress in creating new legislation.

It's the judicial branch's responsibility to check the executive branch when this happens. The only issue is that they've not done it nearly enough and are pushing rulings along party lines.

I'm sure MAGA will be along shortly to remind me how much they hate the Constitution and how the Founding Fathers were cucks anyway.

Are you asking this question because you're mentally retarded or just because you're dishonest? You do realize we have these things called appellate courts and the Supreme Court right? Saying the Constitution intended for individual judges to be able to over with the president is as fricking retarded as saying individual congressman can do it just because Congress is considered co-equal. In addition it's stupid because it effectively makes the lower court judges more powerful than any individual judge on the appellate courts. No rational person actually believes this shite. They just like it because it's working for their side. Nobody repeat nobody repeat nobody actually believes that's the way things should fricking work

It will be kind of funny to watch the same people who advocated for ignoring Bruen meltdown about the sanctity of the judiciary.

Have you ever read the Constitution?

Because it sets out what cases the supreme court has jurisdiction over

Or, to the thinking world, it is yet another clear example of the same basic set of tactics. Using the court system politically to fight one’s political enemy, for political purposes.

It's destroying itself. This is like a judicial color revolution and it's not going to turn out nice for these judges.

Fricking ACB and Roberts gave them the momentum for all this continued garbage. When and how they'll end up paying is unknown if those 2 have TDS. And kav and gorsech are t givens either.

Where have I ever said that slow and I are friends i've said I've met him i've said I respect his opinion enough to listen to it even if I don't always agree with it


But I've never claimed to be his friend nor I doubt he would ever claim to be mine

He wouldn't even have me on his short-lived radio show which was his biggest mistake


But I like the guy and don't have an issue with him but we are not friends and it wouldn't offend me But slow would insist at the threat of legal issues that you retract that slanderous accusation


But again you're obsessed with me and make up things all the time i'm sure that lotion is involved

They're also weren't even any federal judges below the Appellate level. Just saying. Sometimes you just have to use your fricking brain. Our Founders were awesome but they couldn't predict the maximum levels of stupidity the left could invent

DOGE didn’t dismantle USAID though. That never had that authority so therefore DOGE can’t reinstate it


Trump shut it down
