The House of Representatives has filed suit against the President - this is not a joke

[Mira]

even though I'm laughing too hard to find a link at the moment.
It is breaking on MSNBC
It is a suit about Obamacare supposedly - not about immigration reform

OK
I found a link

1. Sour grapes...Hey Republicans...

[Historic NY]

2. They hired the so call liberal for profit legal eagle...Jonathan Turley.

[merrily]

3. Reps sued him before, over not going to Congress re: Libya.

However, that was not the House of Reps, so the court treated them as ordinary citizens, which meant they had no standing to sue.

The Constitution does require a vote of Congress for war, but suing the President over Obamacare, which Congress passed, is ridiculous.

ETA: Okay, a link does help. (Imagine that!) Turns out they are suing him over allegedly unilateral action.

5. Yeah, got the NYT banner

They think their 3rd try at finding a law firm stupid enough to bother, will be the charm.

[HappyMe]

6. This is the 3rd time

they have tried this. I wonder if this latest firm will dump it like a hot potato too.

[ffr]

7. It's so their propaganda outlets can tow their narrative

%fill in meaningless narrative here%

It plays to their base, which appears to be extremely effective. After all, they showed up for the mid-terms and we didn't. Maybe the DNCC could take notes.
