Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire DACA SCOTUS Update

Of course, Justice Thomas is right. It is absurd to think that any District Court judge, anywhere in the country, can enjoin an action by the Executive Branch. I would like to see that practice stopped.

Trump should just ignore such district rulings, give them the finger & tell them to try to enforce their injunction & get on with life.

" So I think we have to do something that is compassionate and reasonable."

I think otherwise. We owe these illegals jack.

Anybody know what the issue(s) is(are)? Guess I don't care enough to read the briefs.

Was once a serious question, if the government grants something of value out of its largess, can the government take it back without due process applying? No idea if that was briefed but an interesting question nonetheless.

I don’t trust Roberts.

The Justices agreed to answer two questions:

1. Is the decision to end DACA subject to judicial review?

2. If it is subject to review, does it violate the law?

"Reliance interests" were very much part of the discussion. So apparently, if the government causes a situation where people rely on a policy, some sort of reliance interest is created.

OK, reliance is part of the due process argument. It's blackletter law that a statute or administrative decision cannot be arbitrary and capricious, it must serve some legitimate governmental interest. And by analogy repealing the act or administrative rule must serve some legitimate governmental interest too. (The more people rely, have a greater interest, the greater the government interest must be.) Popular line of reasoning among intellectuals in the early 1980's. Interesting that it should appear in a meaningful way at this late date.

What does the D in DACA stand for?

As with any illegal in this country anchor babies are the problem. It’s not today but it will be in 20 or so years.
Then chain migration fixes the illegals problems. Catch 22. Hasbeen

I have been flamed on this forum for saying that I have no problem with law abiding tax paying DACA kids remaining in this country. They go to the back of the citizenship request line and don't vote until they become citizens. They cannot be an avenue through which their parents are sponsored.
