What I've learned is that 19 days of early voting is a THREAT TO DEMOCRACY but total Executive overreach is all good, motherfucker (as long as it's by Chairman Big Rig!)Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.

Originally posted by iam416 View PostNothing posted here, I think, on Chairman Big Rig extending the eviction moratorium -- something he knows is brazenly unconstitutional. However, it's worth noting -- it's hard to credit cries of "Democracy is in danger!" and so forth when the same people support unquestionably illegal power grabs by the Executive. It was, by the way, illegal when PDJT did it.
Andrew Jackson reacting to a SC decision against him said something on the order of "... well, now let's see the SC enforce its order". We are in that territory now. If you are a prog and do not believe in private property, all of this makes sense. It will be one issue used to pack the court.
What to do. A section 1983 claim under the Civil Rights Act of 1869 act would be best, IMO. It allows that the bureaucrat who unlawfully takes property to be personally responsible for damages. A regulatory takings claim for a partial taking could also work. But, at the end of the day, there has to be some holding that lawmaking by the executive bureaucracy is unconstitutional. Period. Justice Thomas has said as much. This type of silliness would never pass Congress.

I've reported here on the CDC's attempt to regulate the cruise industry beyond it's congressionally authorized powers to do so. The federal judge hearing FL v. Bacerra et. al's request for a preliminary injunction against these actions absolutely schooled HHS/CDC on the separation of powers ruling that their action wrt the cruise industry were unconstitutional. He granted the PI and then suspended it giving the CDC to rewrite all their BS regs to comply with the law. Instead they appealed to the USCOA and got hammered again.
That was the PI appeal track. It's done with the CDC losing. The case will be litigated next week in Judge Merryday's Middle Court of FL. He's the judge that already ruled against the CDC. The CDC is going to get hammered again. Will that make any difference? I don't think it will. The usurpation of congressional powers by the executive is out of control. We live in a well established administrative state.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off.

You can actually watch live. There's a guy at one of the cruise blogs I follow watching it live and reporting. Thinks NCL's lawyers are weak. FL's legal team is really strong demonstrating that by hammering the HHS's/CDC's in their case. I have a shit intenet connection down here in Mexico.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off.

Sorry for the Fox News link, but I couldn't find this story on a 'more reliable' outlet.
There may be a treatment for Covid by using a common cholesterol medication.

And IMO,.. with each passing day, I'm more convinced that Cuomo survives his scandal, and finishes his term. There's a lot of 'harumph-ing' in his own party, but he seems to be immune to it."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"

3. Ala-fucking-Bama will be good at the football again this year.
4. The Braves make me sad.
5. We should have listened to the Zimbabweans from the beginning.Last edited by AlabamAlum; August 6, 2021, 01:42 PM."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln
