Washington (CNN) — The Supreme Court said Friday it will review next term President Donald Trump's decision to terminate an Obama-era program that protects hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants who came to the US as children, setting up a potential decision in the heart of the 2020 presidential election.

A decision siding with the administration could strip protections for some 700,000 so-called Dreamers.

The justices have been considering whether to take up the case for months, while allowing renewals for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program to continue, even as the Trump administration cracked down on issues related to immigration. Renewals for the program will continue as the court considers the case.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

With Roberts as the new swing vote on the court I'm sure the decision will be confusingly schizophrenic.

Busily looking in the penumbras of the Constitution for anything that says a sitting president cannot rescind an order of a previous president.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...

And if that doesn't work, looking at penumbras of penumbras, and taking it to three derivations out if necessary.

And if that doesn't work, question the sincerity and ignore the lawful authority.
The Republic is lost.

That does seem to be the case.  By any means necessary comes to mind.
