Judge Martin Feldman of the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana issued a contempt ruling against the United States Department of the Interior Wednesday. Judge Feldman is the Federal Judge that rejected what I've so fondly referred to as the moronatorium which the White House based on the manipulated (actually, outright faked) opinions of experts who did not approve the measure. Of course, the Administration, which firmly believes it is above the law, simply reissued the moronatorium despite the fact that the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeal had refused to lift Judge Feldman's stay of the moronatorium (perhaps I should call it the Obamoronatorium).
Judge Feldman wrote "Such dismissive conduct, viewed in tandem with the reimposition of a second blanket and substantially identical moratorium and in light of the national importance of this case, provide this Court with clear and convincing evidence of the government's contempt of this Court's preliminary injunction order."
It's about time someone told this Administration that it is not above the law. I have opined before that the actions taken by this Administration rise to the level of impeachable offenses which should lead to the removal of this President. This is the most blatant example so far. I would encourage everyone to write a thank you note to Judge Feldman.
