Beyond the separation of powers issue, I think there's a huge due process issue with the lower court's decision.
Basically, if money is taken from another program, someone has an interest in that money, and therefore, a right to notice of the court proceeding and to be heard. They werw neither noticed nor heard.
As for the separation of powers issue, the court should give deference to executive discretion where the money on hand is insufficient to meet all obligations. It's the executive, not the court, who is constitutionally tasked with making those hard decisions. Plus, it's really up to congress to fix, and the court knows it can't do shit about that, so shitting on the executive is just that. It solves nothing.
@Leyonhjelm@DaddyO@PNS Judges can't force Biden to defend the nation's borders, but they can force Trump to keep giving niggers Gibs? Get the fuck outta here! Good on the Supreme Court for injecting *some* amount of sanity back into US politics.
The stupidest justice on the court blocked it. The lower judge literally told Trump to rob the budget that pays for poor kids to have lunch available at school even if their parents are refusing to feed them. The lower judge would face a different result in a more civilized society
The district judge was so stupid even Brown knows not to raid the school lunch budget to pay for another. You know you fucked up when even she knows an injunction against welfare payouts is needed
@PNS So when they talk about the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial branches of government, what they really mean is the Judicial branch and then whatever the Judicial branch determines the executive or legislative branches are allowed to do. And the Judicial branch is made up of all unelected, life-time serving judges.
