Top officials violate the law, federal judge orders them to appear in court

Andrew Hanen, a federal judge in the district court of South Texas, has ordered top officials of Homeland Security to appear in Brownsville, Texas next month to explain why they should not be held in contempt for violating an injunction issued against President Obama's executive amnesty order. 

This order also includes Secretary Jeh Johnson, yet another Obama appointee who believes, like many on the left, that Obama's word is the law.

When Obama announced the amnesty action on November 20th, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who was then the state's attorney general, filed the suit on December 3rd.

Judge Hanen called Obama's response to his February 16 injunction "unacceptable" and "unprofessional" and said that he is "shocked and surprised at the cavalier attitude the Government has taken" in the way they disregarded it.

The problem stems from the federal government's failure to show why the DHS issued two thousand work permits to illegal aliens after the injunction was in place. The Injustice Justice Department announced that in May, but DHS never explained why they approved the applications.

Hanen is giving them until the end of July or else appear before him on August 19th.

"Each individual Defendant must attend and be prepared to show why he or she should not be held in contempt of Court," Hanen ordered. 

This makes one wonder if Obama is going to use his pen and phone to intervene and make the law of the land "go away." If he does, and is successful, then call it another victory for anarchy.
