“The 2026 Executive Order is almost certainly unconstitutional,” Boardman said, citing the Supreme Court’s ruling on Trump’s earlier birthright citizenship effort.
“This Court must, once again, preliminarily enjoin enforcement of the President’s most recent attempt to strip the right to citizenship from them.”

This is why. He keeps doing whatever and then we have to play catch-up through the courts and by then he’s destroyed or stolen what he wanted, even if the courts stop it, which he ignores half the time anyways. It should not take a lawsuit for the SC to exercise oversight over the executive, they should be scrutinizing it’s orders constantly. Their job is ensuring the executive and the legislative follow the law, not just when someone raises an objection. But then maybe the legal system is so fucked already we shouldn’t be where we are at all.
