THE SCOTUS WILL NOT TAKE UP THE INDEPENDENT STATE LEGISLATURE QUESTION... THIS IS A WIN...THE PRESIDENT CAN IGNORE ANY STATES RULINGS...JUST AS IT HAS BEEN SINCE 1800. THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH PRESIDENT IS EQUAL TO AND AS POWERFUL AS ANY BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT. AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN MORE POWERFUL THSN STATES. No, states cannot independently deny presidential actions only within their borders. The United States Constitution vests executive power in the President, and this power is meant to be exercised uniformly across the country. While state governments have certain powers and can enact laws relevant to their residents, they cannot override or nullify presidential actions. Here's why: Supremacy Clause: The Supremacy Clause (Article VI of the Constitution) states that federal law is supreme to state law when there is a conflict. This means that state laws that contradict or undermine a presidential action are invalid. Limited State Power: The Constitution grants specific powers to the federal government, and the states have the powers that are not specifically delegated to the federal government or prohibited by the Constitution. The executive power, including the authority to enforce laws and make executive orders, is primarily a federal power. Judicial Review: The Supreme Court has the power to review actions of both the executive and legislative branches to ensure they are constitutional. If a state attempts to deny a presidential action, the Supreme Court could potentially invalidate that action based on federal supremacy. In essence, while states can disagree with or criticize presidential actions, they cannot legally block them from being carried out within their borders. The federal government, through its constitutionally established powers, has the final say in the enforcement and implementation of presidential actions across the nation. usaconstitution gov uscourts gov
