In reply to the discussion: Supreme Court fight over birthright citizenship threatens 'chaos' in proving newborns' status [View all]BumRushDaShow
(169,803 posts)11. That is how it is SUPPOSED to work
But as long as John Roberts' loony Justices continue to allow the illegal E.O.s to remain in effect (with very few that made it to them actually being put on HOLD pending a merits review, or HALTED completely, like the tariffs) then the damage continues to be done from the fake "legislating from the Oval Office".
That is because the federal employees get forced to carry out illegal orders, and if they don't, have been fired (requiring lots of $$$ and a number of years, to get their cases resolved and get their jobs back).

As is plainly clear, "What then ?" is not a familiar question to this WH. Shoot first, ask questions later, think never.

The Supreme Court fight does not threaten chaos. The administration's suit threatens chaos.
