…has the power of declaring an emergency. This would be especially true when a presidential order is illegal. The Governors are obligated to protect their citizens and should explore the rational for their own emergency declarations with their state Attorney General in regard to existing and long established principles, including limiting the movements of ICE in garb to mask their identity. Not every arrest or raid is legit under existing law.
This hostility against The Clean Air Act is not backed by any proven change in the decades of attempting to institute Clean Coal Technology. President Obama tried everything to perfect coal’s use and every attempt, including a model plant, failed. The Coal Industry has been beating this dead horse far too long. If the coal industry wants to make money, make diamonds with clean energy. Diamonds are more valuable than any burning ember.
An illegal order is an illegal order and should be met with demands to prove otherwise.
Trump’s signature is worthless when faced with factual documentation to prove he is not only breaking the law, but, enacting political corruption to back cronies. Such demands for proof can bring about the strength of states RICO statutes.
The strength of the USA Constitution exists to expose the lawbreakers that may include federal House and Senate members.
