Obama to Ignore Congress and Law
Now comes the latest outrage where the president has decided to ignore U.S. law by closing the GITMO prison in Guantanamo Bay that is housing Middle East military combatants and to bring them to U.S. prisons on the mainland. The Senate has clearly voted against the plan but that does not seem to dissuade the president, and presidential spokesman Josh Earnest has said Obama has not ruled out the use of executive action that would ignore the wishes of Congress and the people.
Speaker of the House Paul Ryan has promised a fight if Obama tries to close GITMO with Executive Action. “He can’t. He doesn’t have the authority to do it. It’s just that clear,” Ryan told Mark Halperin.
Oh, but he can, he’s lawless and does whatever he wants, pretending he cares about the Constitution up until the moment he violates the law.
Sen. Grassley issued a powerful statement Obama’s possible attempt to move enemy combatants housed at Guantanamo Bay to U.S. soil. Congress has passed several bills that restrict any move to transfer these detainees to the United States, Sen. Grassley wrote. Most recently, on Tuesday, the Senate passed and sent to the president the National Defense Authorization Act for 2016, which maintains those restrictions, on a 91-3 vote.
That’s a remarkable number. If the president goes against 93 senators, it is particularly egregious. Grassley also wants the Obama administration to release the legal analysis done by the Justice Department that authorized the release of five senior Taliban commanders from Guantanamo Bay in June 2014 in exchange for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl without the legally required 30-day notice to Congress.
Grassley wrote that “President Obama’s pledge to shutter the detention facility at Guantanamo was always based on the notion that softening America’s image abroad would somehow soften our enemies’ resolve. The headlines every day remind us that’s not the way it is. If anything, as a direct result of the president’s national security policies, our homeland is in more danger now than when he took office.”
“There are a number of serious concerns with moving hardened terrorists to U.S. soil. These include questions surrounding any additional legal, immigration and constitutional rights that terrorists will be afforded by such a move, as well as the obvious public safety threat that would come from permanently housing them in U.S. communities. Those who remain at Guantanamo include the worst of the worst — for example, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. President Obama has admitted that many of them are too dangerous to be transferred or released. Officials in New York refused to house some of them even temporarily for a trial. And many of their home countries won’t even take them back.”
