[Nobody seems to know how to address the issue of federal district judges assuming executive branch prerogatives from the bench.  Both Right and Left are haranguing each other on the question of who, the President or the judge, is actually abiding by the laws of the land.  The proper way to approach the solution here is for SCOTUS to first rule on whether such district judges have any standing in general to rule on federal policies.  The proper ruling would be for SCOTUS to make it clear that they have no standing on matters outside their district, and most certainly not on matters that involve federal policies, be they originated by Congress or the Executive.  Keep these black-robed two-bit lawyers in their sandbox.  gjr]

    fish – Remember that only fares by the riders can be used for all operational costs.
    If they ever get it going, we all know how soon that will get “adjusted”.
    In the Bay Area, they haven’t got the dough to keep BART operational.
    Gee – what happened to reparations and free health care for all Californians?

    Shows what BeerBelly knows:
    “Is Texas not the Magaloon Nirvana it is cracked up to be?”
    Houston (along with Austin and Dallas) are Dem strongholds with a “diverse” population. They also are more akin to Chicago and NYC in their problems. If BeerBelly would care to waddle out of his parent’s basement and travel a bit, he might be aware of what is going on beyond his tiny little view of reality.
    Apparently it was one deputy sheriff and the other 3 were former members of the force.
    No one has advanced any connection between the 4 other than their profession.

    Here is a definition of a lie:
    “A lie is an assertion that is believed to be false, typically used with the purpose of deceiving or misleading someone. The practice of communicating lies is called lying. A person who communicates a lie may be termed a liar.”
    Did trump lie to deceive voters to gain their vote? Did Trump honestly believe he would ” have that done in 24 hours.”
