I assume he was operating from the standpoint that he suspects any action he takes from the executive on this will get killed by SCOTUS because SCOTUS basically said they would. Now, admittedly, by going ahead anyway might buy some time simply because it has to work through the courts but I imagine he thinks the end result is they'll overturn an extension on his end. They look like they're hoping that by making it more targeted than the original one maybe it'll be spared but I don't trust this SCOTUS on that front. Pelosi though... she's just been absolutely awful on this no question. I'm assuming she knows the votes don't exist within the House Dems to pass an extension because of some moderates and therefore didn't even go for the super obvious "pass it in the House and then let the GOP filibuster it and own it." But even if that is the case and she's shielding them by trying to deflect back to the WH her statements on this have been so awful it's beyond excuse. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...
