U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson
Rules the Bureaucracy Controls the Executive
Branch, Not the President

Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 3/2/2025 9:56:02 AM

Not unexpectedly, U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson has ruled that unelected bureaucrat, Hampton Dellinger, the U.S. Office of Special Counsel head has more unilateral power within the executive branch of government than President Donald Trump. [RULING pdf HERE]This ruling stems from the same mindset as former AG Bill Barr, former FBI Director James Comey, former Deputy AG Sally Yates, former IC Inspector General Michael Atkinson, and the entire organization of professional Lawfare activists that includes Mary McCord, Andrew Weissmann and Norm Eisen. The collective belief is that in the modern “continuity of government” framework, the bureaucracy of government controls things, not the elected and plenary President.

Impeach her. She has shown she is too incompetent to perform her duties.

Excellent. This will force the SCOTUS to slap her down with the Constitution and clarify the law for the rest of the liberal judges. Once the SCOTUS has ruled, "resistance" comes with a much higher cost, including censorship and impeachment. The farce with these liberal judges is coming to an end.

Fine, he claims he can only be fired for poor job performance, then fire him for that. Otherwise, put him in a closet of an office with a desk and a chair, no staff, take his security clearance and take away all of his duties. Make him useless.

I guess then we need to put these folks in an office building, no phone, wifi, computers, etc, require them to be there from 8 to 5 five days a week , and remain on the government payroll under all the responsibilities thereon. We got lots of empty buildings. The cost cuts will have to wait until DOGE 2.0.

It's always the U.S. District Court. Democrats own it, lock stock and barrel. What kind of authority does the President have if some jag off Judge can over rule his authority. If it were ruled that the president over stepped his authority when he fired this dork, then that over ruling should come from the supreme Court, not from some judge with a hard on for Trump.

What to do about another lawfare judge proving their ignorance or incompetence? Even if Dellinger was dismissed in error (LMFAO) his legal recourse is not reinstatement but financial compensation. This all part of the "gum up the works" plan. Be that as it may, she's clearly proved herself biased and incompetent and should be removed. Unfortunately, impeachment requires two thirds majority in the Senate. The Supremes better quash this Judicial Insurrection and PDQ!

We need a fast-track, Judicial, "Impeach & Remove," proceeding for cases where SCOTUS reverses ANY Federal Judge's ruling involving an egregious error on "Constitution 101" matters. Lifetime appointments bring grave responsibilities requiring constant oversight.

District Courts were established by Congress and signed into law by sitting presidents, per the Constitution's, Article III, Section 1: "The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish." Because Congress has the authority to decide whether the lower federal courts should exist, the legislature is also understood to enjoy broad power to structure the lower courts, make procedural rules for them, and regulate their jurisdiction. The Executive Branch, described and structured by Article II is headed by the president, who in Section 3 is commanded to "...take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States." In carrying out the Take Care clause, it has long been established that the president has the right of removal of any Officer of the United States, provided that such removal doesn't violate any other Constitutionally established public law. I'm sure Sundance knows this but it is not in keeping with his compelling narrative, given the law fare faced by Trump throughout the Biden Administration. The question that the Supreme Court may consider, if the Judge Jackon's ruling is appealed, is precisely what public law was allegedly violated by the president's exercise of his removal power. The provisions within the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, may be in play here; however, there are at least a dozen laws dealing with Equal Opportunity Employment matters in federal employment alone, largely addressed by democrat controlled Congressional majorities, that may impact on the specific matter of the Jackson ruling.

That's been a complaint for some time but the government didn't want to change things, democrat and republican. There has never been any legal action taken by the various cabinet members that make regulations that were eventually to become law that was never sanctified by the congress.

Trump Administration Will ‘Take Action’

THE WHITE HOUSE — The Trump administration promised to “take action” if Americans’ speech is censored by U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s crackdown on free speech. In response to a question from The Federalist about the United Kingdom’s suppression of free speech, Trump said it was a “very important” issue that his administration is talking to the U.K. government about. Trump said that he spoke to Starmer about his censorship regime during their visit, and that Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio had also brought up the concern.

President Donald Trump is preparing to cancel a 2022 sanctions relief agreement with Venezuela, citing the country’s election conditions and insufficient efforts to repatriate its citizens from the United States. On Nov. 26, 2022, the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) issued a license authorizing the U.S. multinational oil and gas company Chevron Corp. to pursue business ventures in Venezuela. President Joe Biden’s administration had offered the license agreement as Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro held talks with his political opposition to hold a free and fair election in 2024.

America’s Catholics are facing a crisis of authority. The social and economic realities of mass migration contradict the Vatican’s facile theologizing on open borders. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), in accord with Pope Francis’ globalist conceits, opposes President Donald Trump’s resolve to curtail illegal migration. Catholics are caught between fidelity to ecclesial leadership and obedience to the just laws of our own country. Francis’ hostility to Trump is no secret. Damian Thompson, former editor of Britain’s Catholic Herald, wrote: “In 2016, Francis gave his blessing to the Hillary Clinton campaign’s Catholic front organizations, motivated not just by their shared obsession with anti-racism and climate change but contempt for Donald Trump.”

While I don't expect many people reading this article to be purveyors of the legacy media, most are probably on social media. That means they see the clips of Democrats appearing on the broadcast networks, MSNBC, and the like, and if they are perceptive, they've probably noticed something. Namely, that certain former "fresh faces" of the Democratic Party aren't so fresh anymore. For context, it's been weeks since there's been an article on RedState covering something Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said. That would have been unheard of a few years ago, but guess who has had five articles written about her since then? That would be Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX).

A most dangerous war took a perilous turn on Friday. In what was planned to be a brief, cordial, greeting, President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy squared off in the Oval Office and left an alliance shaken. For three years, the west has stood against Russia's unprovoked invasion of an innocent country. Ukraine is a vanity war for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, who covets an empire. And for that alone, more than one million people have been killed or wounded on both sides. President Trump has boasted only he can end it quickly.

On CNN this morning, Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy, who might be the dumbest man in government today, decried the Trump administration’s position on the Russia/Ukraine war. You can read much more at the link, but I am going to focus on just a couple of points. First, the question asked by CNN’s Dana Bash: Host Dana Bash said, “Do you think there’s hope of salvaging this relationship with Ukraine?” This is mind-numbingly stupid. The proper question, as even Zelensky realizes, is whether Ukraine has hope of salvaging its relationship with the United States. So in this interview, you know from the beginning that you are in a fog of unknowing. Murphy’s response

It was the opposite. If anyone came to that meeting in bad faith, it was clearly Zelensky, whose body language and attitude was negative from the start. Trump could not have been more cordial, having steered the complex negotiations with Russia and Ukraine to a first step where he believed peace was a real possibility. But Zelensky had other ideas.
