January 30Jan 30 Popular Post I hope this lawyer not only prevails but is able to extract a record amount of money from the terrorists who killed their son. Donald Trump has a lot to answer for and he has a lot of blood on his hands, and it appears that he's just getting started, unless we're somehow able to shut that poisonous creep down.

Established by Marbury v. Madison (1803), this doctrine ensures checks and balances, allowing the judiciary to declare laws unconstitutional and, under the Administrative Procedure Act, review federal agency actions for being arbitrary.

You are the (self proclaimed expert) so you tell us - I am sure that we, and the debate in general, will benefit from your encyclopaedic knowledge of US case law.Or are you just trying to pick a fight, not exactly unknown with you in these columns is it @Yagoda ?
