Oof, bad day for Biden that will go under the radar thanks to his friends in the journoscum class.

I'll give a little of the court order for background:
This case is about the immigration “crisis” at the southern border. The plaintiff is the State of Florida and the defendants are the United States of America and various federal immigration agencies and officials.

Florida alleges in the amended complaint (Doc. 16) that Defendants have adopted and are implementing policies that contravene explicit mandates and restrictions in the immigration statutes and that the policies have effectively turned the southern border into little more than a speedbump for the hundreds of thousands of aliens who have flooded across the border into the country since January 2021 and the thousands more who are arriving at the border daily. Florida challenges the policies under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) and the Constitution and seeks declaratory and injunctive relief.

Defendants dispute the existence of one of the challenged policies and argue that the amended complaint should be dismissed because Florida lacks legal standing to challenge the policies, because the policies are beyond judicial review, and because the amended complaint fails to assert any plausible claims upon which relief can be granted. Each of these arguments is addressed (and rejected) in detail below.

Suffice it to say the Court is wholly unpersuaded by Defendants’ position that they have unfettered discretion to determine how (or if) to comply with the immigration statutes and that there is nothing that Florida or this Court can do about their policies even if they contravene the immigration statutes. This position is as remarkable as it is wrong because it is well established that no one, not even the President, is above the law and the Court unquestionably has the authority to say what the law is and to invalidate action of the executive branch that contravenes the law and/or the Constitution. Thus, if Florida’s allegations that Defendants are essentially flaunting the immigration laws are proven to be true, the Court most certainly can (and will) do something about it.

Basically, Biden's whole catch and release thing with illegals jumping the border was sued over by Florida. This is not the Title 42 stuff or the Remain in Mexico policy, but a separate administrative action by Biden's DHS to let illegals go after being accosted.

Then Biden changed catch and release to "we'll catch you and release you if you promise to report to us in 15 days" without any enforcement mechanism. The WH tried to dismiss the case then like the problem was solved, but Florida amended its complaint.

Biden tried once more to dismiss it by claiming Florida lacked standing and there isn't subject matter jurisdiction. And this is the court telling Biden "fuck no, if you're flaunting immigration law this case will proceed." They wanted it dismissed so that they could just keep their catch and release program going, but now the litigation is on.

It doesn't mean the end of the DNC's purposeful importation of illegals into America, but it's the opposite of what they wanted right now.

Christ, the mask is off.

"Despite getting court injunctions for everything from sneezing to yawning when it came to Trump, OUR policies are above the law."

Fucking Biden as Judge Dredd.

I really don’t want to be ‘that guy’, and I know it’s in the press release, but ‘flaunt’ and the correct verb ‘flout’ have two completely different meanings.

Shut up faggot, with your book learnin' and shit. But yeah you're right, I was just copying what the federal judge said. What can you do—he went to FSU and ain't one of those fancy Yale grads who leak Supreme Court decisions.

I like how the snake that they drew is a fucking ball python, the most harmless breed of snake there is outside of maybe Rosie Boas. I'd rather have the pythons than the rabbits, I've been hurt by more rabbits than snakes in my life and I've owned a shitton of both. These retards can't get anything right.

Let me poke some holes in it being the op.

The decision was going to come down soon, and was leaked early. But no matter when it came out it would have aligned with -something- electorally just because we passed March and have entered the electoral season. Also, because it is known it was coming out and the indications of how it was going were coming out frequently, a lot of people would have already made and prepped their propaganda and fundraising.

Everything has been set up to go out at a moments notice -since March-.

No op necessary, all I am seeing is things prepped months ago getting the start button pushed. And all this would have occurred within the same timefame had the decision not been leaked. The only thing that's changed is it being leaked early.

what about amazon? HR clearly developed that policy recently.

Well the protestors showed up super fast after Politico dropped the story, I say at least 12 Hours of prep time was given to the Protestors to be ready.

i'd suspect it was leaked earlier, a good chunk of schools on monday were closed for the muslim holiday, and it was only announced 2 weeks prior, plus amazon's abortion policy clearly would have taken time to be crafted. even if the first bit is just coincidence, i would think someone over at amazon knew since friday night at the latest.

my favorite part is you can tell he's a hardcore genX nerd. even this doesn't have the docheyness that it would have if say Trump or Baked Alaska said it. but it has the geeky inflection you'd hear from one of the leads in Revenge of the Nerds. "golly i hope mr.soros slides in me DMs *snort*" even the dumb shit like posting the tiger photo or the dogecoin crap is very "i learned assembly because there was no alternative" old school nerd stuff.

@Oxous Rely bug.
Nobody polled for it. On the right as well. We all expected a compromise decision Roberts wanted. We all utterly got blindsided by them coming out to nuke it from orbit.

except this isn't the actual opinion but a draft. remember when someone leaked a louis CK stand up special? it was a fuck load more conservative than the final product. all the jokes about the kids that survived a school shooting and the pronouns bullshit wasn't there. Like people said in other threads here. there is a pretty big chance that Roberts and other justices were going to water the opinion down from the one that was leaked. it was apparently a draft from the beginning of the year for fucks sake. Chances are once finalized Roberts will cuck the shit out of it.

You see a lot of overemotional-pussy-shit these days. Symptom of single mother households and worshipping of worthless, fickle feelings. You must be just, RIGHTEOUS against the evil virus of super satan that asks you to think rationally.

Overemotional-pussy-shit is a menace, I tell you.

thankfully with abortion outlawed we'll never see single mothers ever again right?

Another thing quietly happening under the surface amidst all the current fun is who (assuming the House flips) the Republican House Majority leader will be come January. The NYT and CNN have been going hard after McCarthy for months now and there's some quite tasty audio leaks emerging of late showing how cucked the guy is:

New audio: McCarthy said 25th Amendment 'takes too long' and wanted to reach out to Biden after January 6 attack

(CNN)House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy discussed the 25th Amendment on a call with GOP leadership days after the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and said the process "takes too long," according to an audio recording obtained by two New York Times reporters and shared with CNN.

McCarthy also said during the call that he wanted to reach out to then-President-elect Joe Biden as he expressed hope for a "smooth transition," and said he thought impeachment would further divide the nation.
The call took place on January 8, 2021, and the audio was obtained for the new book "This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America's Future," by Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns.

At one point in the recording, McCarthy asks an aide for a readout of a separate call. It's not clear exactly what call he is referring to. The aide responds, "I think the options that have been cited by the Democrats so far are the 25th Amendment, which is not exactly an elegant solution here."
McCarthy interjects to say, "That takes too long too. It could go back to the House, right?"

The aide responds, "Correct. If the President were to submit a letter overruling the Cabinet and the vice president, two-thirds vote in the House and the Senate to overrule the President. So it's kind of an armful."
CNN has reached out to McCarthy's office to request comment on the new audio.

At the beginning of the audio, McCarthy can be heard saying, "What the President did is atrocious and totally wrong," comments that have been previously reported on by The New York Times.
In the aftermath of the deadly attack on the Capitol, a number of Democrats, including members of leadership, publicly called for then-President Donald Trump to be removed from office either through impeachment or the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

Invoking the 25th Amendment would have required then-Vice President Mike Pence and a majority of the Cabinet to vote to remove Trump from office due to his inability to "discharge the powers and duties of his office" -- an unprecedented step.

The new audio release of McCarthy is the latest in a series of such releases featuring the House GOP leader that have shed light on what he said privately to other House Republicans in the aftermath of the January 6 attack. And the fact McCarthy was pressing one of his aides for details about how the 25th Amendment process would work shows there was a serious conversation at the highest levels of GOP leadership about the idea -- not just idle chatter -- even if it was ultimately deemed not a viable option.

Last month, audio showed that McCarthy did consider asking Trump to resign in the days after the riot, contradicting his office's earlier denials of New York Times reporting that he had done so.

Audio also showed that in the days following the insurrection, McCarthy told Republican lawmakers on a private conference call that Trump had admitted bearing some responsibility for the deadly attack.

McCarthy has moved to tamp down the potential fallout from the audio releases both in public and in private, and he commented on speaking about the 25th Amendment. McCarthy, who initially vehemently denied the Times' reporting before the audiotapes of those conversations were released, has argued that he was merely floating potential scenarios about Trump's future and was not advocating for one option over the other.

"I have never asked the President to resign. I never thought he should resign," McCarthy said in April when pressed on whether he had believed at any point that Trump should resign. "What I was asked on a phone call was about the process, the 25th Amendment, whether someone was impeached. We walked through ifs, ands and buts. It was never in the process to ask Trump to resign."
Trump, for his part, said after the initial audiotapes were released that while he didn't like what he had heard McCarthy saying, their relationship remains strong -- in part because McCarthy worked so hard after January 6 to win his support.

In the new audio, McCarthy can also be heard discussing wanting to reach out to Biden.

"I do think the impeachment divides the nation further and continues the fight even greater. That's why I want to reach out to Biden. I wanted the President to meet with Biden; that's not going to happen," McCarthy said, adding, "I want to see about us meeting with Biden, sitting down, make a smooth transition to show that, and continue to keep those statements going."
McCarthy, who said he used to have breakfast with Biden when he was the vice president, also talked about what would be best for Biden, arguing that a smooth transition would "be beneficial to his presidency, too" and that Biden would be in a "stronger" position if he implores the country to move forward.
McCarthy can also be heard saying on the tape, "I'm trying to do it not from a basis of Republicans, of a basis of, hey, it's not healthy for the nation. That's a conversation I want to have with Biden himself."

The growing amount of perennial fence sitting faggotry evidence accumulating regarding McCarthy shows that the fight over the leadership is bound to be spicy - and it's enough to arguably see him thrown out too if enough Trump-endorsed House members are elected. This timeline I swear:story:

I agree that Kemp is a total pussy. But FatGappy has really injured herself. If they’re smart, they’ll put her on nonstop blast for the MLB fiasco, as well as circulate these images every day.
