If it comes back up it will be interesting to compare it to Obama's version.

website just now and it is still missing. What possible reason, even if it is being updated, could there be for removing the Judicial Branch

This happened after the rulings on the Immigration ban...

On second thought, though... maybe it has something to do with a planned naming of a Supreme Court Justice? Not that that makes me feel better, but could be why.
