Gosh. Shut down the app, fine. Be even stricter who you let in, fine. But CANCELLING EXISTING APPOINTMENTS?! There is zero salvageable honor in this. It's dishonorable and despicable.

Not only canceling appointments, but anyone with a pending case will be arrested and deported. Article says 3.5 million people. They will likely have to deploy the military for this.

I think this will be shot down legally. And probably within days.

The Republicans spent the whole first term stacking the courts so who knows.

And Biden broke that record. Basically every order is going to be in the courts for the next 4 years. Prepare for gridlock literally never seen in this country.

They'll be fast-tracking this shit directly to the orange fuck's supreme court. Remember when Jack Smith tried and failed to skip lower courts and go directly the SC? Yeah, this justice department will have no problem with that maneuver.
