2. How long before they circumvent

Congress all together? This Congress is utterly spineless and unequivocally broken. This administration is also no longer hiding that they didn't give a shit what the law says if they want to move money around they will, if they want to cancel whole government agencies, they will. Their distain for Congress is overt and undeniable. Unless it immediately drops to its knees and says "whatever you want Daddy" they are attacked.

I genuinely believe we are less than 6 months away from the WH just going directly to Treasury for whatever money they want and ignoring Congress all together.

If I have learned anything it's that the Executive can just ignore the courts and Congress and their is genuinely morning they can do about it. The enforcement mechanism is not owned by the courts or Congress.
