Epoch Times:
WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court decided June 28 to review the constitutionality of President Barack Obama’s highly controversial Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program that has for seven years prevented hundreds of thousands of young people who came to the United States as minors from being deported.
The decision is a win for the Trump administration. But it means the DACA issue will remain alive throughout the 2020 election cycle. Protections for DACA recipients are expected to remain in place while the case is being considered.
Democrats are preparing to use the issue to win votes.
“Certainly immigration and what we do as a country about immigration is going to be a key issue for the campaign,” Janet Napolitano, president of the University of California and former Obama Homeland Security secretary, told reporters on June 28.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), a presidential candidate, said during the Democratic Party candidates’ debate June 27 that if she becomes president, reinstating DACA by executive action will be the first thing she does in the Oval Office.
Republicans have long said DACA is a brazen power grab, a usurpation of Congress’ constitutionally prescribed role in making laws. Before President Barack Obama created DACA in 2012 with the stroke of a pen, he acknowledged such a program would be unconstitutional. read more
I don’t understand why they need to decide this. Trump should just rescind the directive. Obama just waved his arm and made it happen why can’t Trump do the opposite.
Agree, gin blossom. And I’m not at all sure that a John Roberts SCOTUS
will do what needs to be done.
Time for the John Roberts drinking game!!!
The Donald keeps making the mistake of allowing
the courts to second guess and supercede his clear authority as President.
I can just see the order that pompous ass Roberts
will gin up like he did with the Kenyans’ medi-theft
crap he stuck us with.
Bush didn’t do the country any favors by choosing that sniveling wimp.
I can’t even stand looking at that stupid look on his face he has all the time.
NO! We all know exactly what will happen. We will have DACA become ‘constitutional’ even though it is not. It WILL happen.
Please, God, let me be wrong.
No less an authority than President Barack Hussain Osmidgen, who once taught Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago, said on twenty-two public occasions that a Presidential Executive Order implementing DACA would be unconstitutional. This is the only time that the lying bastard told the truth about the U.S.Constitution, so I’m hoping that Chief Justice John Roberts will believe him this time.
Another 5-4 vote we will lose. Place your bets.
The parents who brought them came in as illegals. If they had jobs, they had to have obtained illegal social security numbers. The parents were and are still criminals. Parents and their children should be deported, no matter how old any of them are. How many “children” would go with their parents to take care of them? Probably none since being funded in the USA is likely all they care about. Selfishness is a very addictive behavior.

An audit conducted by the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) inspector general finds that thousands of social security numbers of people who are long deceased were used by illegal immigrants to apply for work, and some numbers were also used to open bank accounts.
