All three branches of the Fed are co-equal.
The Judiciary cannot 'order' the Executive to do anything.
The Legislature *can* impeach the Executive if his actions warrant it.

Judge to Obama- You MUST Deport Illegal Immigrants

Chalk up one for Justice and the Constitution! A federal Judge in
Texas told the Obama administration that they did NOT have the
discretion to pick and choose which laws to enforce. They must
deport illegal immigrants...er... criminally trespassing aliens. The
lawsuit was brought by Ice Agents who felt their lives were being
put in danger because they were not being allowed to do their jobs.
This was not a final decision, the Judge ruled that the court
challenge by federal immigration agents seeking to block President
Barack Obama's deferred-deportation initiative will probably succeed.
The deferred-deportation program was the President's attempt to
create a "dream act" by executive fiat after it was rejected by Congress.
Judge Reed O'Connor in Dallas put off his own decision on whether
to grant the request for a preliminary injunction by 10 U.S.
Immigration and Customs agents because he requited additional information.
Announced by Obama and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano
last year, the directive gives agents the ability to defer action on
people unlawfully in the U.S. if they came to the country under the
age of 16, are in school or have obtained a high school diploma,
haven't been convicted of a felony, significant misdemeanor or
multiple misdemeanors, and aren't a threat to public safety or
national security.
"The court finds that DHS does not have discretion to refuse to
initiate removal proceedings" when the requirements for deportation
under a federal statute are met, O'Connor said today in a 38-page
decision, referring to the Department of Homeland Security.
Still, the judge said he can't decide the case based on the
arguments he's heard so far.
"Accordingly, the court hereby defers ruling on the plaintiffs'
application for preliminary injunction until the parties have
submitted additional briefing," O'Connor said.
According to the president's attorney, this was nothing but a
dispute between employers and employees.
Adam Kirschner, a lawyer for the Justice Department, told O'Connor
at the hearing the case was, in reality, an employment dispute and
that the agents can't demonstrate they've been harmed. "These agents
do not like the way the agency has prioritized the use of its
resources," he said.
"The executive cannot remove 11 million people," Kirchner said of
the branch of the U.S. government led by Obama. "The executive has
authority to exercise its discretion."
If Mr. Kirchner had read the constitution lately perhaps he would
understand that the congress passes laws and the executive is
supposed to implement them. It is not within his power to decide
which laws to implement and which to ignore. Just as it is not
within the powers of the citizens to decide which laws to follow
and which to break.
