Federal judge rules Trump 'exceeded his authority' with executive orders
The Washington Times ^ | 8/26/2018 | Darlene Superville

A federal judge dealt a blow Saturday to President Donald Trump’s efforts to “promote more efficient” government, ruling that key provisions of three recent executive orders “undermine federal employees’ right to bargain collectively” under federal law. U.S. District Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson said Trump had “exceeded his authority” in issuing the orders.

First of all, thank you JFK for allowing government workers to unionize. Next, where was this jerk when Obama said about 20 times he didn't have the power under the Constitution to give deferred action to DACA folks and then went ahead and did it?

But the same judge was silent for 8 years of the criminal obama regime when he exceeded his authority using executive orders. Political judges must be removed from the bench.

Well judgette, you don’t get to decided what the president does and doesn’t do with the powers that he’s vested with. So, as far as your ruling? Denied! Next.

All the more reason we need to show up in November and elect Republicans.

If you're against voting for RINOs, your battleground is in the primaries. In November, our choices are whether or not President Trump gets impeached.

Judge Jackson, another Obama appointee and the Obama pick for Judge Scalia, an absolute travesty had it happened....Ms. Jackson is so biased she is worthless when is comes to President Trump....her action will be overturned.

Without knowing all the details. I think this ruling may be accurate. This is the one area where we need laws to fix our garbage federal civilian employees.

The other judge rulings were definitely overstepping...especially the one saying he had to keep DACA in place. But this one I believe there may be laws on the books that say the gov’t can’t be efficient and employing people (basically that’s what it says because democrats passed the rules/laws to ensure their buddies can live off the tax payers).

Federal workers have NO right to “collectively bargain.” The taxpayers who pay their salaries have no seat at the table or say in the matter.

Question: Currently in the House, how many judges are being impeached?

If the number is zero, then Paul Ryan is not doing his job.

UNFORTUNALTLY this is the way it is:

So, how can a judge override an executive order from the president? Article III of the Constitution addresses this practice directly. Federal courts have the power to interpret the Constitution, and can declare an executive order illegal or unconstitutional.Feb 4, 2017

Hopefully we can get our REPUBLICANS into office this November and give some help to Our President so he doesn't have to EO everything and then the Federal Judges can't do anything!!!

It’s why we need to go back to patronage. No more lifetime sinecures. 4 years or 8 years with the new administration. Trash in, trash out.

"But this one I believe there may be laws on the books that say the gov’t can’t be efficient and employing people..."

I agree....this may also be a conflict of interest....the taxpayer winds up paying salaries for the Bureaucratic army that our government employs.

The Executive Branch is now a marginalized inferior federal department.
