Honestly — I hate to give it any oxygen, at all.

But it is something that needs… to be squelched: Shumate is arguing that Tangerine 2.0’s supposed “executive orders” — this time around — are “beyond contestation“. That they cannot be challenged in any court.

That voting him out, via impeachment. . . is the people’s only redress. [I’ll now wait until tonight, when the National Council of Nonprofits will answer this lunacy — more fully.]

I guess Mr. Shumate was sick and/or traveling — missed class, for the three weeks that 1Ls discuss Marbury v. Madison. [And likewise, in seventh grade civics — when it was covered, as well. Hilariously, Shumate mentions Marbury in his memo at page 12 — but wholly-ignores the direct holding of Marbury — that the President’s actions are all subject to judicial review. He mentions the non-controlling obiter dicta of the Nixon cases as well — ones that ended without a definitive outcome, when Nixon resigned.]

Mr. Shumate made this goofy argument in this hasty, typo riddled filing — the one I mentioned in passing, last night. On the Freeze.

But I made a new graphic, here — just to be sure everyone’s attention is focused on how… out of bounds these new jokers are. The orange rambler is no king. We fought a war or two about this. [Just ask the British.] This nonsense needs to be put down, in highly clear fashion. Onward.
