Congress can legislate that some issues are not subject to judicial review. But the case is already before the court. I doubt that they can make it retroactive.
Well, since those words can appear in any order, many of those results seem to actually be coming from the combination “texas court defies obama”.
Checking a few of the stories that do seem to say Obama is defying the order don’t yield any evidence that he is. They seem to be conflating his departments implementing other changes to immigration policy with violating the Texas order, which was only about the deportation amnesty.
Hmm, it seems you are correct, but we would require a Congress with a spine to get that done. Even if we did, there is a wrinkle:
“Congress may not strip the U.S. Supreme Court of jurisdiction over those cases that fall under the Court’s original jurisdiction defined in the U.S. Constitution...”
The Supreme Court has express original jurisdiction of any case involving disputes between states, so all it takes is one state to sue another to force it to recognize gay marriages under the full faith & credit clause, and the Supreme Court has all the jurisdiction it needs and Congress can’t stop them from making their ruling.
Four things that will win the White House:
1. Secure the border with verification and enforce current immigration laws.
2. Revoke citizenship of anyone born of illegal parents and end Anchor babies for future births.
3. Begin massive deportations, starting with those who have committed other crimes.
4. Put illegals on notice that if they ever want to be U.S. citizens they must leave now. If they have to be deported they would forfeit any path to citizenship.
Any candidate who would do this and save our country from being ravaged would win in a landslide.
Believe whatever the hell you want.
These stories of Buckwheat’s defiance towards the Texas federal court have been all over FR.
Sorry, you’re wrong here. Take what you want. I’ll keep the Miranda rights and not think twice about it.
If you don’t understand the importance of the Miranda case, then you haven’t been paying enough attention in life.
This could work, if there are conservative chairmen in charge of the senate and house judiciary committees. They can forbid federal courts from hearing such cases, which is a constitutional authority that cannot be reviewed by the courts.
However, they would be extremely busy doing so many other things as well, such as a structural redesign of the federal benches and appellate districts, and retiring a large number of bad federal by reorganizing their courts away from them.
They would still get paychecks until they died, but they would no longer have power over others.
Wrong - see post #9.
