Deep State Court


BOOM! TRUMP APPOINTED JUDGES THROTTLES DEEP STATE POWER GRAB, By Steven Ahle, 12/31/18.

In what started out as being a simple deportation case, has now become a major driver for reducing the power of the Deep State and three judges, all appointed by President Trump are in the very thick of it.

Jasso Arangure is a lawful permanent resident (LPR, or green-card holder) who was convicted of home invasion in Michigan. That is a felony and considered a violent crime, that makes him eligible for deportation. He was being deported due to the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), which holds that a violent crime makes a permanent illegal eligible for deportation.

The problem is that judges have previously outsourced their mandate to interpret law to federal agencies, where Deep State bureaucrats would decide what the ruling should be. In that way, they could prevent violent foreigners from deportation. A recent three judge panel on the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals found that it’s the judges job to interpret law, not the Bureaucrats.

All three judges were appointed by President Trump. In their decision, they quoted a fourth judge, also appointed by Trump.

From Breitbart News: “Courts have always had an emphatic duty to say what the law is,” Thapar began for the Cincinnati-based appeals court, quoting the Supreme Court’s historic Marbury v. Madison case. He continued:
When dealing with agencies, this abdication by ambiguity is even more tempting—and even more problematic. Because, under Chevron, ambiguity means courts get to outsource their “emphatic” duty by deferring to an agency’s interpretation. But all too often, courts abdicate this duty by rushing to find statutes ambiguous, rather than performing a full interpretive analysis.

“This abdication by ambiguity impermissibly expands on already-questionable Chevron doctrine,” the Trump judges continued, going to on quote yet another Trump appointee, Judge James Ho of the Fifth Circuit, who likewise criticized Chevron.

The three Trump appointed judges are Amul Thapar, John Bush, and John Nalbandian. Thapar actually took the argument further to include still another deference doctrine, Auer deference. That is about the interpretation of regulatory decisions, which the courts have also outsourced to the Deep State. The Auer deference has been accepted for review by the Supreme Court and is likely to get thrown out. Two SCOTUS judges appointed by Trump, Gorsuch and Kavanaugh have been huge critics of the Auer.

History will look back and say that one of the best moves made by President Trump is the return of the courts as the decider in cases rather than the Deep State. This is huge.
