Last week’s Supreme Court ruling on the Obama-era DACA program is a threat to the rule of law and civil rights law. It’s time for the President to “just say no” to Supreme Court abuses – and put an end to the SCOTUS’ legislating from the bench.
Tune in to hear more about how Chief Justice Roberts broke his promise of impartiality and put his thumbs on the scales. Chief Justice Roberts and four liberal Supreme Court Justices ruled against the Trump administration’s effort to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) amnesty program. In doing so it has undermined the Constitution.
Obama’s decision to provide amnesty for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens under the DACA program was unlawful, and the court interfered with President Trump’s duty and absolute right to rescind it.
Chief Justice Roberts and his liberal colleagues ruled that it is illegal for President Trump to end an illegal Obama program. This is the Alice-in-Wonderland approach to judicial decision-making. Threats to the rule of law come not only from rioters and looters in the streets, but also from activist judges on the bench.
Only Congress can amend the law, not President Obama nor the courts. One cannot help but conclude that this decision is driven more by politics than the rule of law.
