Trump keen to use executive orders and circumvent Congress
John Yoo told Axios he has been talking to White House officials about his view that a recent supreme court ruling on immigration would allow Trump to issue executive orders that flout federal law.
In a Fox News Sunday interview, Trump declared he would try to use that interpretation to try to force through decrees on healthcare, immigration and “various other plans” over the coming month.
A REPUBLIC IF YOU CAN KEEP IT; and good luck with that (July 20) —
Sit back. Relax. The sky is NOT falling.
Turns out it was never there.
Like the whatchamacallit, the Constitution?
(Or, for all that, “gods” who “hear” prayers.)
All there has ever been is THE STRONG MAN,
the glorious leader who,
can do whatever, whenever he likes per tortuous logic spewed by John Yoo.

Decision to speed delivery of 22 deals worth $8 billion; opponents decry administration’s move
WASHINGTON—The Trump administration on Friday invoked a rarely used
provision of American arms control laws to sidestep Congress and
authorize billions of dollars in weapons sales to Middle East allies,
angering U.S. lawmakers who characterized the decision as an abuse of
power.
MYWAY, May 25
This “rule of law” shit. . .
What the fuck's that about?
The way to do things
is personal clout.
My dad and Roy Cohn
both taught me and thought
there are no rules
that cannot be bought
out or ignored
or gotten round
if you bluster enough
a way can be found.
Eagles are regal.
Eagles are TRUMPs.
Rules are for seagulls
who eat trash at dumps.
Loser winged rats.

(With a small “d”,
fuck democracy.)
Legal scholars dismiss the idea,
saying a president lacks standing to do it on his own
In an interview published Tuesday morning, just ahead of next week’s
midterms, Mr. Trump said he planned an executive order to end what is
known as birthright citizenship, bypassing Congress and waving off
the belief of many legal scholars that such a move would require a
change to the Constitution.
“It was always told to me that you needed a constitutional
amendment. Guess what? You don’t,” he told Axios. “It’s in
the process. It’ll happen, with an executive order.”
As president I can do what I like.
Because if I
can't. . .where's the fun?
I can, if I want, have someone shot,
then charge them
for use of the gun.
I learned all this stuff from
my boy, Stephen Miller.
In a Twitter post on Wednesday, Mr. Trump presented his own legal argument: “It is not covered by the 14th Amendment because of the words ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof,’ ” . . .
With judges who say corporations are people,
then rule people need homes full of guns,
there’s no reason to think undoing amendments
won’t be considered great fun.
Our GOP's quick on the draw to hold upuphold the law.
Remember when Republicans said, “Sex, except in the marital bed, was grievously sinful and therefore forbidden and that such sin should never be hidden.”? Remember when only Democrats thought love and/or sex should be openly sought provided so doing caused no pollution and did not screw with the Constitution?
Stare decisis
just comes from Jesus.
Therefor, we can ignore
Roe v. Wade and other decisions
Scripture we read to abhor.
To paraphrase Justice Scalia:
“Sirs, the words are the words.”
Albeit he, like other judges,
was prone to fudges
bordering on the absurd.
And although
the record will show
Sotomayer and Kagan
still will be there. . .

Well. . .they haven't prayer.
And they’ll be gone,
God's men ascendant,
when we repeal the Nineteenth Amendment.

from ripping up paper after he was done with it and throwing it in
the trash or on the floor. . .
not content with being third-rate Trump's out to create a great big failed state his how-to-repair-what-ails-ya is like Maduro's in Venezuela disband legislature co-opt the courts (while he golfs at his resorts) to renew the country remake it pristine he'd make like Duterte in The Philippines making America double-plus greater shooting first he'd ask questions later or never whatever like Best-Friend-4ever Tsar Vlad those who oppose make him "so sad" but unlike that cagey B-minus guy Trump can't rely on his FBI to fix things by bumping folks off ("my kingdom for his Kalashnikov") if Vlad gifts Trump a gun it's open season on everyone Trump bold with "Kalash"* gold lots of luck WTF

one alternate fate "evangelical caliphate" setting Constitution aside the Bible our infallible guide kept as a remnant the second amendment or if Xi Jinping fails to prevail upon North Korea to lower their sail then avoiding a nuclear boom depends on sanity of Kim Jong Un which means doom I assume
