re: DACA reaches the Supreme Court

I can’t wait to see how Chief Von Screw Nut will screw the American people next

It's win-win for DJT:

If DACA is a legal EO, then one POTUS can rescind a previously-issued EO.

If it's unconstitutional (hint: it is), then DACA is DOA.

Pull the records of the DACA 'kids' and see who's already applied for citizenship since aging out of the system. Let those proactive ones to the table. Everybody else can frick off.

Justice Roberts will let us down.

He may think so....but trump will then slap 100 EO's on everything, which is now decided the next president wouldnt be able to end.

Win win for us, IMO

Roberts is NOT a boat rocker. He showed that in spades on the Obama care decision. DACA will be law of the land.

Then in the stoke of a pen, he will have rendered his Court and Congress meaningless.

Someone please explain how Mexico filing an amicus brief in favor of keeping DACA in place is actually something which will help that happen.

IMHO, it is proof positive that Mexico is dumping these assholes on us.

This is a win/win for Trump. If they find in his favor, as they should, he gets DACA rescinded. If they find against him, it means all of his executive orders are basically law and cannot be overturned by the next president. So essentially, he could spend everyday the next 5 years writing executive orders to reshape America however he wants.

It can be a win/win for everyone if TDS can just get out of the way. Trump's issue with DACA is that the EO was unconstitutional overreach from Obama. He told the Dims he would sign a program like DACA into law if they passed it. They have not even tried. They just called him racist.

Justice Roberts is a disaster

Ok, I read a lengthy dissertation on this issue. As I interpret the explanation there are 3 possible outcomes all of which focus on the very old Administrative Procedures Act.

First outcome is the court can find that Trump did not follow the Act as it relates to an explanation prior to either entering or rescinding an EO. Some say that there is a writing that supports his position and the court can say that is enough. Otherwise, Trump loses but can revisit and provide an explanation.

Second outcome is court find that the prior explanation is enough to rescind DACA and keep the EO stream going for the president and future presidents. (From what I hear, this is the likely outcome).

Third outcome is that the Court finds that DACA EO was illegal when done (Trump administration position) and that would preclude all future presidents from writing illegal orders. (Given Roberts position, the paper seems to think this outcome also unlikely).

Easy way out is for the court to just say the reasoning for DACA EO rescinding was ok as written and can be executed by Trump. Pretty much a one off as I predict but hoping for full blown finding of illegal prior EO

Holy shite! This gem is from oral argument today courtesy of the wise Latina (per Daily Caller LINK ):

“Where is all of this really considered and weighed?” she added. “Where is the political decision made clearly, that this is not about the law, this is about our choice to destroy lives.”
