Judge Nap On Trump's Executive Order Covid-19 Bailout

[Wake-up!]

"But whether Congress is giving away taxpayer dollars, buying battleships or borrowing money, it must do so by legislation. We know this because the separation of powers prohibits the president or the courts from doing Congress' job. We also know this because the Constitution expressly states in Article I, section 9, that no money shall be spent except when appropriated by law.

Stated differently, the Treasury cannot legally borrow or spend a nickel unless it has been expressly authorized to do so by law — meaning by legislation enacted by Congress. This is neither a novel nor a political observation. It is Constitutional Law 101.

Thus, when the president — no matter his goals — attempts to exercise power that the Constitution has given exclusively to Congress, it is the duty of the courts to stop him."

[But, but, but Judge Nap, the unemployed like free things. So do the disabled, the poor, the elderly, the homeless, the drug addicted, the lazy, the government employees. Heck, the only ones that bellyache about free things are the hard workers and the conspiracy theorists. And there are not many hard workers left in America. There are not many jobs left in America for hard workers. Aren't the majority who are are dependent on, also entitled to the fruits of the remaining working class? Isn't that Socialism 101, Judge? Aren't we there yet?]
