Cuccinelli unlawfully appointed to head Citizenship and Immigration Services, judge rules
A Barack Obama-appointed Judge, natch..
[FoxNews] A federal judge ruled Sunday that one of the Trump administration's top immigration officials, Ken Cuccinelli, was unlawfully appointed to his post because of a decades-old law on federal vacancies.

U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss ruled that Cuccinelli's appointment as the acting director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) circumvented a law that said a senior government position could be filled only if the Senate first approved the individual.

It was not immediately clear what impact this would have on Cuccinelli's tenure, if any.

#1 Seems the judge and I have different definitions of what ‘acting director’ means. I think it means he does the job until approved by powers that be or replaced by someone so approved. As in temporary. The judge seems to think it means trump appointed person full of wrong-think.

If my definition is right, hopefully upon appeal someone will humiliate this partisan judge for the nonsense.
