Douglas Golden Published June 19, 2020 at 7:41am On Thursday, the Supreme Court ruled against the current president’s attempts to undo the prior president’s fiat. In a 5-4 decision, the nation’s highest court ruled against the Trump administration’s efforts to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, an initiative that offered individuals who came to the United States as children legal protections against removal and allowed them to work in the country. According to www.wsj.com/articles/supreme-court- blocks-trump-cancellation-of-daca-immigration-program-11592489280? mod=hp_lead_pos1">The Wall Street Journal, the decision, authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, claimed the Trump administration moved arbitrarily to end the program, saying it didn’t offer adequate justification for winding it down. Roberts was joined by the four liberal justices on the court: Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor. “The dispute before the Court is not whether [the Department of Homeland Security] may rescind DACA. All parties agree that it may. The dispute is instead primarily about the procedure the agency followed in doing so,” Roberts’ www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf/18- 587_5ifl.pdf">ruling read. The ruling stated that under the Administrative Procedures Act, the administration must “provide a reasoned explanation for its action,” which includes “what if anything to do about the hardship to DACA recipients.” President Trump clarified Friday morning that “nothing was won or lost” and his administration would resubmit the enhanced documents to the high court to fulfill its ruling and request. twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1273967323901317120 Roberts’ decision to side with the court’s liberal contingent in a case involving the Administrative Procedures Act isn’t a new thing; last year, Roberts joined the liberal minority in a decision that voided a citizenship question on the U.S. Census for roughly the same reasons outlined in Thursday’s ruling. For conservatives, it was another disappointment out www.westernjournal.com/chief-justice-john-roberts- scolds-sides-impeachment-trial-gets-heated/? ff_source=Email&ff_medium=CTBreaking&ff_campaign=breaking&ff_content =conservative-tribune">of Roberts, a George W. Bush appointee. The chief justice has been a more reliable swing vote than the previous Republican-appointed court hinge — Anthony Kennedy — but his rulings in several major cases have left conservatives baffled, and not because they expect judges appointed under Republican presidents to stick with the team. Roberts’ most infamous vote came when he voted to uphold the key portion of Obamacare, the individual mandate, in a www.forbes.com/sites/theapothecary/2012/07/01/the- supreme-courts-john-roberts-changed-his-obamacare-vote-in- may/#3271ba9d701d">2012 case. There, Roberts said he believed the mandate fell under government’s legitimate purview to tax. The problem is that these decisions always seem uniquely Jesuitical, with Roberts’ logic seeming to exist mostly to preserve his predetermined path. All of which is to say the 2020 election is terribly important to conservatives — something the president underlined in a series of tweets shortly after the decision was made. “These horrible & politically charged decisions coming out of the Supreme Court are shotgun blasts into the face of people that are proud to call themselves Republicans or Conservatives,” Trump wrote. “We need more Justices or we will lose our 2nd. Amendment & everything else. Vote Trump 2020!” Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
