Where did I say anything in that post about being illegal?
Are you f*cking serious?
You’ve been trying to defend the nationwide injunctions because it’s your belief that the audit is illegal. And then, as part of your insane justification for the audit's illegality, you use the fact that the audit has been fully transparent from the get-go - like that is some sort of criminal offense.
You really need some serious f*cking professional help.

get Congress involve to ensure compliance
Is that a legal requirement? Should Hegseth have asked permission from Congress before changing the name of a military base? Why not?
All you've done is express your opinion of how the executive branch should have done something, all while pretending that if he'd just done it in a way that makes you happy the Dems wouldn't have tried to tie it up in court. I doubt you even believe that, you're just so deep in an insupportable position you end up with nonsensical claims. You recognized early on you couldn't support "illegal" so you've shifted to undefined terms like "proper" and "normative".

That's literally what WKA ruled, in defining "subject to the jurisdiction".

WKA disagrees and is a Supreme Court case defining what that phrase means.

Strawman. I've never done this.
In fact, I said Congress needs to address this issue in this very thread.

I never said that. You can lie about it all you want, but it doesn't make it true.

It's the safest route to avoid legal challenges. I've never said it was the exclusive route (as the post had 2 different options, which in themselves were non-exclusive).
quote:

No, but this action did more than change a name of a piece of federal property. It created a new arm of the executive with new functions, without specifying those functions specifically, trying to be clever in doing so by boostrapping onto an existing agency and pretending it's always existed.
Can that theoretically survive? Sure.
Will that be legally challenged? Also sure.

They wouldn't have survived the injunction trial. They may have gotten an initial injunction, although the odds are low.

It doesn't end there. There will be a trial shortly.
A local Judge just basically told two branches of government to F/O. SCOTUS had better address the pipsqueak injunction BS, and quickly, or the Judiciary is going to get reintroduced to the principle of Executive nonacquiescence, and a major undermining of SCOTUS authority. FAFO.

You can go into various DOGE-related threads during the election and see me post my concerns about this EXACT scenario unfolding.

And if Congress doesn't like it, they have the power to remove this authority from district court judges. The solution is purely Congressional, as I noted previously ITT.

Now DOGE is tied up until the courts determine if it was formed legally, due to being too aggressive in implementaiton.

So? You said you feared they wouldn't follow the law properly, then claimed that's exactly what happened. Then you deny what you said.

This ×1000. Even one day of this injunction was one day too many AND provided fuel for the Trump = lawless narrative, even though the decision will be overturned at some point.

For the last f*cking time you f*cking retard – they never addressed the issue of criminals who come here illegally. The ONLY thing we really have is contemporaneous constitutional history where the drafter specifically stated that "subject to the jurisdiction of" would not include illegals.
Wong Kim Ark's parents were permanent domiciles and had LEGAL residence in the United States, and were "there carrying on business." As a result, the Supreme Court never ruled on the anchor babies of illegal criminals.
It wasn't at issue in the case. You’re trying to use the inartful semantics of the Wong Kim Ark opinion to apply to a situation that was never f*cking contemplated in the case. And, we all know that you’re doing it strictly because it supports your political agenda. Well, that and the fact that you’re a f*cking idiot.
I’m serious when I say this dude -- get some professional f*cking help. You are one STUPID and f*cked-in-the-head individual.

"Inartful semantics" is a weird way to define an exhaustive historical and textual analysis of the terms. But, again, you don't like Scalia and textualism, so that makes sense. You want a "living document" analysis, I presume.

You actually think the Trump Admin stepping more gingerly into the night would solve that judicial bullshite?

Not just this case. They're having to litigate if DOGE was formed properly or is even legal, which could invalidate all of their actions.

By doing things the right way (either via Congress or following regulations like the APA by the book), they would thwart these challenges easily.

How long do you think it will take to review a Temporary Restraining Order that orders the destruction of data?
When did so many here decide to suspend common sense? The system is lazy and corrupt, and the response is "that's just the way it is." The idea to improve things never actually crosses the mind of most. They've been fully indoctrinated to believe that the system is always correct. Even when the system is wrong, it's still correct because it can't be changed.
This shite the democrats constantly try shouldn't take more than 5 minutes to overturn, but too many just accept mediocrity from the people with power. The system is fricked, but too many people don't even realize that it doesn't have to be. They just don't have the ability to think for themselves.
