The problem is that "it is illegal, but there is no recourse or consequence" is essentially the same thing as "it is legal".
Are the defendants of this case being charged? Anyone know how to figure that out?
- rayiner 11y agoYour statement is a controversial one. Many hold the view that the judiciary's power to "say what the law is" does not imply that every violation of the law must have a judicial remedy. The reason is simple: coordinate branches of government have an independent obligation to follow the law. The system cannot work if they systematically ignore that obligation, and if that is the case, a few Bivens lawsuits won't do jack shit to stop them.
