Since Trump’s earlier firings were illegal and he did them anyway, why do the cave caucusers think that another law telling him not to will actually be followed, or if violated, enforced?

More on a shiv that Abbe Lowell will deploy that Pat Fitz will not, in my experience: You cowards refuse to disavow Trump.
![In faulting Attorney General James for “try[ing] to bootstrap” a Section 546 violation into
a violation of the Appointments Clause, the government betrays a fundamental misunderstanding
of how the two provisions relate. The government again attempts to slay a strawman in
emphasizing that “not every action in excess of statutory authority is ipso facto in violation of the
Constitution.” Br. 23 (citation omitted). That is not what Attorney General James argues.
Attorney General James’s theory of a constitutional violation is grounded in the plain text of the
Appointments Clause and does not, as the government mistakenly claims, provide that “every
statutory violation would become a constitutional violation.” Br. 23 (emphasis omitted). The
Appointments Clause dictates that inferior officers like U.S. Attorneys can be appointed only 1)
by the President “with the Advice and Consent of the Senate,” or 2) through a process that
Congress has properly authorized “by Law.” An appointment that comports with neither of these
pathways violates the Appointments Clause. In United States v. Trump, 740 F. Supp. 3d 1245,
1304 (S.D. Fla. 2024), the district court recognized that if an inferior office is appointed in a
manner that does not comply with any statute, her appointment violates the Appointments Clause. The government contends that Attorney General James’s theory of Appointments Clause
violations is too broad, but tellingly, it does not argue that Trump was incorrectly decided.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bbp2b224lro3bfnzcqwwnkfo/bafkreida3uqnncjcuhs6frzefj7s2ktupte4iaoqi7x2z5n56vjtfqlysy@jpeg)

Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.

Two is much more likely.
One of two things is true:
1. Chuck Schumer genuinely felt this is a bad deal, so he voted against it, but he couldn't keep Senate Dems in line because he's a lackluster leader.
OR
2. Chuck Schumer orchestrated the shutdown deal w/ retiring Dems because he's a bad strategist and got rattled.

They don't need to be in these positions anymore.
They can amble away into the privileged nothingness that defines their spinelessness and lack of courage.
