Ultra-virus

On Sunday, March 1, 2020, U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss ruled that Donald Trump's June 2019 appointment of anti-immigration hard-liner Ken Cuccinelli as acting U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) director violated the Federal Vacancies Reform Act (FVRA). Why? Because he was never a subordinate, always a principal of USCIS, a department under U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS).

Big deal?

Who cares?

Immigrants care.

Patriots care.

Expatriots care.

Repatriots care.

Constitutionalists care.

Believers in the rule of law care.

Cuccinelli's 'official' hateful anti-immigration act--abbreviated asylum hearings--is null and void.

Trump's appointment violated the FVRA, according to district court Judge Moss.

Like elections, ultra-vires acts have consequences.

Inhale deeply, enemies of despotism.

Maybe Trump is not above the law.

Exhale slowly, friends of democracy and the rule of law.

Maybe blue is better.
