| Cases are being filed -- of ones with decisions, about 138 successful cases to block executive actions so far, and 91 unsuccessful. https://apnews.com/projects/trump-executive-order-lawsuit-tr... Meanwhile the Supreme Court has granted 16 out of 19 emergency petitions filed by the executive to overturn those rulings, grants that often require shifts in precedent without written reasoning, leading a Justice voting in the minority to describe the Court's current shadow docket practice as "Calvinball." So (a) they are filing cases (b) they are winning (c) the Supreme Court is giving every indication that the law will be whatever it needs to be to have those cases ultimately lose. |

(If you like your Roman law, it is analogous to how a consul acting with senatus contultum ultimum is empowered [1], versus a dictator, who can literally make law.) SCOTUS has been deferring to the administration around what happens while a case is being litigated. It’s stupid. But it’s not Aileen Cannon corrupt (not yet). (If I’m guessing correctly, they’re bending the knee with one leg and punting with the other. If the midterms swing even one house of the Congress, the judiciary regains its independence.)

I'm not familiar with the Immigration & Nationalisation Act(s), (as amended), so I don't know the degree to which public comment is required and judicial review permitted, but a last-minute rule like this would be expected to make it to the SCOTUS docket earlier in our republic. |

| Complete haphazard system that creates mini tyrants in every border officer. "I didn't hear about the existing part... back to home country loser" "I don't have any tools to verify you had an existing blah blah, back on the plane loser" On the other hand companies with the right corruption chain will make up whatever paperwork they have to , to bypass any of these after-the-fact clarifying sound bites. |
