The Supreme Court purpose is to Interpret current "LAWS," not to set up an/or make "POLICY" for the American people. Plus, they have life time appointments to that position and "I" don't want the government to that much power AND not be abled to be voted out of office.
If that was the case, why would we need a President and Congress?? That would be Like having a King and his royal court making all the laws and bypassing the will of the people.
The Federal Government is in a deadlock over the issue of the the Mexican Border Wall.
So?
That doesn't require the involvement of the US Supreme Court.
There is no legal cause of action that would ever arise to necessitate the involvement of the courts, except for the possibility of legal challenges to Eminent Domain.
The Federal Government is in a deadlock over the issue of the the Mexican Border Wall. The President of your Country and Republicans are completely in support of the Wall to secure our border from illegal entry. Democrats are completely opposed to it.
The only way to break this deadlock as far as I can see is for President Trump to declare a national emergency to fund the Wall. The Democrats will naturally fight the President on this move.
So, should the U.S. Supreme Court be the final arbiter on whether or not the Wall is built? Their decision will set a precedent for all future Presidents to do what they need to do on our National Border to ensure the security of our Country.
No, the Supreme Court should not take up the issue. It's a budgetary issue. Trump now says he's not going to declare a national emergency because it would be the easy way out, right after he said he would. I've got whiplash.
Why do you feel the need to lie? Is it because Trump's tactics are one outrage after another?The truth is always only a few clicks away.
yes the truth is only a few click away..and you failed to do research

The deadlock centered on the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2014. The Republican-led House of Representatives, ….offered several continuing resolutions with language delaying or defunding the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (commonly known as "Obamacare")…..Political fights over this and other issues between the House on one side and President Barack Obama and the Senate on the other led to a budget impasse
democrats (ted Kennedy specifically ) said (in 1986) after this amnesty there will never be another amnesty and we will henceforth secure our borders.....
Nah. Dems just have to admit they aren't acting in the countries best interest right now and swallow their pride. They can't justify themselves to anyone on this issue. They picked a molehill to die on and it's killing the country. Stupid.

The Supreme Court would not be making policy. They would be interpreting U.S. immigration law and precedent to determine whether the U.S. President has the authority to declare a national emergency and override Congress to secure funds to build a Wall to stop illegal aliens, criminals and drugs from coming across the Mexican border.

If Trump declares a National Emergency and uses funds from the Pentagon to build the wall, then the USSC will need to be involved to decide if such a move is constitutional.
The way I view it, it's a win for everyone. The Pentagon doesn't need even a fraction of its current budget, so why not subtract 5,10, or even 25 billion to build a wall? Otherwise that money will go to more drones, bombs, air strikes, and civilian deaths in places like Yemen. Trump gets to keep his signature campaign pledge and look tough. Democratic house members and senators led by Pelosi and Schumer can say they did all they could by their mandate, so the progressive base cannot fault them.
Who loses in such a situation? Even the Pentagon, with its budget somewhere around 700 billion won't really miss that 5-25 billion dollars.

I know one justice will support the Wall, Clarence Thomas.
The ACA passed congress but the GOP was withholding funding, quite different.
