U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth of the District of Columbia gave the administration until Aug. 13 to explain how it will get VOA working again. The outlet that dates back to World War II has been largely dark since March.
Lamberth said the administration needs to show what it is doing with the $260 million Congress appropriated for VOA’s operations this year.
Alexander Hamilton: “So, what happens if the executive branch just doesn’t follow the law?”
James Madison: “I can’t imagine that happening, but if it does, then the experiment is over and we’re all fucked.”
It is becoming more and more apparent to me that the founding fathers didn’t envision a society where duels didn’t exist to act as a brake on this sort of behavior.
How about we start arresting the executive branch?
Who would be doing the arresting?
Don’t judges have US marshalls?
