Sounds consistent with the clips from the testimony that was aired by Fox News.

I’m not a lawyer, but, from what I’ve heard the DOJ lawyer assigned to this case may not have been the best choice to make this argument. Apparently, others above him had to recuse themselves.

It probably doesn’t matter. The 9th Circuit is predisposed to usurping the constitution. Fortunately, their decisions are often overruled.

It sounds like the Trump Administration is backing off a bit on saying they will take this case to SCOTUS. I think Trump has been advised to be more polite to the courts, or at least not attack them.

It’s fun and fascinating to watch history unfold...

It’s a rather straight forward issue.

The 9th either smacks down Robart, or the Supreme Court will 8-0.

Trump has been deferential and shown respect to the judiciary by not simply ignoring Robart. Robart has no authority over the Executive in this matter.

The 9th would be wise to smack down Robart.
If they don’t, the Supreme Court will.

If he backs off then he does not an immigration policy. Ya’ don’t think there will be lawsuits once the wall starts to be built?
Let me tell you, if we don’t control the borders in every way possible ASAP we have no country left to worry about jobs.

Yeah, doesn't he know how well that has worked out for us in the past?

“the DOJ lawyer assigned to this case may not have been the best choice “

Ya think? I was so embarrassed for him that I had to turn the channel. They should’ve hired Jay Sekulow or similar, if possible.
