"...the Executive is entitled to disregard congressional directives..."
There is a very good reason that there is a judicial branch of government, because executive power has clearly historically aggrandized itself and deprecated legislative power. In a republic that would destroy constitutional limitations on government, which chafes every executive, and every legislator, and impedes their assumption of tyrannical power. That is good. That is necessary in a republic, where the inherent sovereignty of individuals is recognized by the foundational constitution, to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the competence of the drafters of that constitution.
No constitution yet is perfect, and the American experiment has serially failed to attain perfection, and lately has descended into something much resembling totalitarian tyranny, as the executive has arrogated to itself power to assassinate sovereign American civilians without any judicial process or legislative authority. When Bush II took captives without judicial process that was blatantly unconstitutional, and torturing them is clearly tyrannical. Obama went further and assassinated American children without even claiming, much less availing due judicial process, there was any fault of the children, much less accusing them of crimes. The belated efforts of the courts today to restrain Trump are not very likely to succeed because the executive has been allowed to run rampant for decades, and the constitutional framework of America is a tattered fantasy unrelated to the actual operations of the USG.
Jefferson rightly pointed out that successful operation of a just government would require occasional revolt and reconstitution of government. He estimated that would be necessary every 20 years, or so, and it has not been done at all for ~250 years. Government in the USA is in woeful condition, and we the people are in dire straits, beset by Fascist Corporatism that has treated us as little more than lab rats and profit centers by mandating jabs that demonstrably alter our DNA and are orders of magnitude more ruinous to our health and well being than even the lab created common cold virus the USG itself paid to craft in an inadequate Chinese lab.
While getting vicious psychopathic criminals that have been literally flown into the country by the deranged operations of the former tyrannical administration out of the country is necessary, it is also necessary that due judicial process precede governmental force. It isn't necessary to the violent criminals that are removed, but the hapless innocents that are mistakenly swept up in the purge. If every captive isn't allowed due process, sovereign Americans will be purged along with the criminals, and only moronic idiots would support that - which they do in droves. However the US Constitution prevents even majority support for such actions from being lawful, and only amending the Constitution with 2/3 of the legislature can enable such a change in operations of the executive, which has not been done by inherently tyrannical executives yet.
A great deal of the operations of the fed.gov are utterly criminal, treasonous, and unlawful, and the courts have been horrifically negligent in reining in such tyranny for decades. I have little hope they will be effective today, despite I wish they would. Lack of fear is not bravery, and idiots that have no fear of tyrannical government turning them into victims aren't brave. They're foolish. America, like every other country in the world, is full of fools and cowards that are failing to stup up and slaughter tyrants and their toadies and minions to restrain government to it's lawful operation, which is why we have a Second Amendment, because that violent correction is necessary to prevent tyrannical oppression. We see that tyrannical oppression has been unrestrained for decades, and is likely to continue unrestrained until it becomes utterly intolerable and impossible to survive at all. Then there will be unrestrained and uncontrollable violence, with little hope that a constitutional republic results from it. We'll likely find out all too soon.
Thanks!
