I read the article and it was shit. There are two “programs”. Are they executive orders? It seems that they are.
Biden will unveil the policies at a celebration at the White House to mark the 12-year anniversary of another executive action…
If so and Trump wins - can he simply kill the orders?
Biden will allow undocumented spouses to apply for legal residency without having to leave the United States, a major relief for those who have jobs and are raising young children and worry that there is no guarantee they will be allowed back into the country.
[…]
Biden is also expected to announce a work-visa program for current enrollees in Obama’s 2012 program, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, and others who were shut out of the program after the Trump administration called it an illegal amnesty and tried to terminate it in 2017.
[…]
Details for both programs are still being worked out and are expected to be made public over the summer, officials said.
If so and Trump wins - can he simply kill the orders?
Yup. Good thing he did it at the start of his term so as many people as possible could do it before it could get killed. Be pretty immoral if he was just creating a hostage situation.
if he loses and the program gets nixed the trump government uses that list of people who started the process to arrest and kick out first because none will get through it by the time that happens
Let’s play “How will the GOP kill the dems’ plans!”
Via the GOP justices on the supreme court.
Via judge shopping the plans go to the wackadoodle GOP judges on the Fifth Circuit.
DC GOP pols kill it.
The GOP president kills it.
State GOP pols kill it in their state.
Etc! Because the GOP will figure out other methods.
[Did I forget anything?]
Just yesterday I saw a popular Bluesky thread about how incrementalism gets a really bad rap. Simultaneously I had a feeling of humor, a feeling of “No! No! Fucking no!” where I wanted to shake my head, and I was angry.

Yuuuup. This is so obviously bad faith, I can only assume every lib out there is posting it in their social media as another Biden Win.
