wacky1980 Posted February 8 Posted February 8 Anyways, not much of a fan of my governor. But this gave me a chuckle. https://x.com/JBPritzker/status/1887949566525186554?t=52n1jvy0s1idTH6Hn9g65w&s=19 Quote

discolé monade Posted February 9 Posted February 9 All Cabinet departments — like the Defense Department or the Treasury — as well as independent agencies, like the Securities and Exchange Commission, must comply with the APA in all policy actions or decisions. The APA was signed by President Harry Truman and received bipartisan support after a decade-long effort by Republican and Democratic lawmakers. Concerned with a burgeoning "administrative state" after the New Deal expanded the role of executive agencies, Republicans wanted judges to review and curb the executive branch's growing influence. 4 Quote

rpgamer Posted February 9 Posted February 9 2 hours ago, tsar4 said: Things aren't going so well for the Administration... I do get a little nervous about leaning on the judicial to hold things together, tho.. Under normal circumstances, totally fine, but, this administration has shown a clear disregard for legality already, and it still relies on actually enforcing the law in a way they don't just ignore. Every unconstitutional order is all too easily jumped on by anyone that thinks to gain from it, politically or financially, despite the orders not explicitly being laws. Idk. Just sorta anxiously waiting for the masks to come off and they all decide they're just going to make their own rules and declare courts have no power. Judicial wins are a great start, but I definitely feel a lot better seeing the wins in action. Costco shareholders rejected a proposal to review the company's DEI protocols 4 Quote

Vance is justifying Trump, and the administration as a whole, not following the rulings of the courts. He's not posting a non-sequitur; he's teeing up "We know better than you, so we're going to ignore you, Constitution or not." Pritzker is calling it out. It's fairly obvious your axe to grind is making you biased. 4 Quote

Also, JBP is fiddling while Rome burns... Quote
