Extension maintains status quo on ground and extends orders which had been set to expire this week
A federal judge in Oregon on Wednesday extended two temporary restraining orders that block the Trump administration from federalizing and deploying national guard troops to Portland.
The US district court judge, Karin Immergut, extended by 14 days the orders which had been set to expire later this week, as a three-judge panel of the San Francisco-based ninth US circuit court of appeals considers a government request to lift her first order, which said the president did not have the legal authority to take control of the Oregon national guard.
The extension maintains the status quo on the ground as Donald Trump’s administration and the state of Oregon wait for a ruling from the appeals court panel. Two judges on the panel were nominated by the president.
Watch Trump declare her an illegal Immergut.
I was taught in behavioural psychology that saying “don’t do x” isn’t a rule. A rule requires a consequence, an or else, a rule is “if you do x, y will happen”
Doesn’t the fact that it’s a judge saying this carry an implicit “or else?” Speaking of course on how things are supposed to work, not necessarily how they may be working non this current scenario
But that would also mean “you can do x at the cost of y”. Ambiguous consequences here mean that they could impose a cost that would be too great when doing mental risk/reward calculation.
Consequences?
Finger wagging
What no tsk tsk?
They just like to jerk their hand, they don’t wanna talk about it
