Once again Cruz gets it.
He stays on point and is flawless in his analysis.
I truly appreciate the way that he goes about doing his job.
He speaks to issues in the course of doing his job as US Senator, and that is a quality rarely seen these days.
Here we have a federal agency that has taken it upon itself to revise explicit language to mean the opposite of what it says.
If it gets away with it then legislation passed by Congress is merely a suggestion to the agencies tasked with carrying it out.
I actually think that because of the most recent SCOTUS case dealing with the EPA in a substantially similar circumstance, the precedent that Roberts joined in that 5-4 majority will leave little room (if any) to uphold the IRS extra statutory rules which amount to unconstitutional and unilateral spending.
If Roberts had gone against Hobby Lobby then I would say his hands are tied with respect to the ACA, but here’s to hoping that this is the golden ticket he has been searching for to tear down a law that he was previously browbeat into reluctantly upholding by a thread.
All Christians be in prayer that our original four stay outright opposed to the ACA and that Roberts somewhat vindicates himself by making what would be perhaps the most important statutory decision in the history if this nation.
He has every ground to do it. The Dems in Comgress wrote the language regarding subsidies in black and white. There’s no ambiguity.
It’s not the job of the court to rescue Congress from the language it used based on assumptions that turn out to not be well founded.
In a rational world it would be 9-0, but in this case I will settle for 5-4.
Pray my FRiends. We have a real chance here.
