The Obama regime admits to breaking court injunction on Executive immigration
Back in February a Federal Judge, Andrew Hanen, issued an injunction halting part of Barack Obama’s Executive action on illegal immigration on behalf of the 26 state which are suing the Obama regime over his actions until the case could be decided.
More recently Judge Hanen accused the Obama regime of misleading the court, a claim which was confirmed when the Department of Injustice issued an apology over the “confusion” and the “misunderstanding” surrounding the Federal Government’s statements in front of the court.
And now, if this story is true, the Department of Homeland Security has admitted to breaking Judge Hanen’s injunction. Here is more:
President Obama’s lawyers admitted to a federal judge late Thursday that they had broken the court’s injunction halting the administration’s new deportation amnesty, issuing thousands of work permits even after Judge Andrew S. Hanen had ordered the program stopped.
The stunning admission, filed just before midnight in Texas, where the case is being heard, is the latest misstep for the administration’s lawyers, who are facing possible sanctions by Judge Hanen for their continued problems in arguing the case.
The Justice Department lawyers said Homeland Security, which is the defendant in the case, told them Wednesday that an immigration agency had approved about 2,000 applications for three-year work permits, which was part of Mr. Obama’s new amnesty, even after Judge Hanen issued his Feb. 16 injunction halting the entire program.
Top Obama officials, including Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, had repeatedly assured Congress they had fully halted the program and were complying with the order.
“The government sincerely regrets these circumstances and is taking immediate steps to remedy these erroneous three-year terms,” the administration lawyers said.
In my opinion these two issues were not done unintentionally, they were not simple mistakes, and the Obama regime has no intention of correcting these “errors” because they were not errors.
After the Supreme Court decision in Worcester v. Georgia in 1832 Democratic President Andrew Jackson reportedly quipped, “John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!” In all likelihood he did not utter these words, however his actual words did convey that message: “The decision of the supreme court has fell still born, and they find that it cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate.”
I believe Barack Obama is of the same mindset on this issue: he knows the court is powerless to stop him from doing what he wants to do and he knows the Republicans will not do a damn thing to stop him so the regime has continued the policies while at the same time pretending to be upset by the “mistakes” they have made in the wake of the decision.

They apologize while forging ahead w/ their pinko commie agenda. Well, maybe when they step over too far some contractors will be paid (or just a do a Pro bono) to take them out. Seems like that only solution.

Yeah, they say they are going to correct this mistake but is anyone really buying that?

I was thinking my ‘wording’ of that comment wasn’t right in respect of public offices, but those filling the positions are not upholding the office, rather ‘changing’ the very nature of it. And that is what needs to be thrusted out. That ‘nature’ of deceit and fraud is what’s behind the whole world take down. Instrumental to then bring in a ‘bright shining World organizer’ who the Scripture tells us is false light that will be received by MANY! Truth that’s stranger than fiction, kind of thing! It’s accelerating.

As usual, they do what they want until they get caught. Then they say they misspoke or made a mistake, whatever you want to call it. They never reverse what they did and they never don’t do it again. They do what they want, when they want, bottom line. We have a media that is full of wooses along with this Republican party. That a lone judge will stand up to this Administration, is commendable, but where is his backing? Will he be the next in line for being taken out by an “accident”? As we have said before for others, he best be watching his back, he most likely has a target on it now. We have a Dictator, pure and simple!

Isn’t there an old saying that goes something like this, it is easier to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission? That seems to be the mindset with this regime.

This is OT, but I felt it was something you all should read. This has gotten out of hand and we can thank the people in the White House for instigating this:

Thanks for sharing this and yes the Obama regime is partially responsible for this. Whatever happened to using words that heal? Isn’t that what Obama said after the Giffords shooting?

…may we assume that Colmes not unlike so many of his ilk who embarrass themselves with their defense of all that is wrong with America was speaking to his broths from a different motha from his gated community or his secure office.

Probably so, but then again, I doubt what was said on his interview was what he could support. At least I hope he could not. Colmes is a BIG lib, but I hope there is a line that even he cannot cross to support some idiot race baiter, but I have been wrong before.

I just have this funny feeling nothing will happen. Didn’t they already rule his recess appointments were unconstitutional and as far as I remember nothing came from that either.
