I’ve read people saying the court denied the appeal. As you point out, that is absolutely false. They have actually decided to hear the appeal. Just not impose an immediate administrative stay on the restraining order until the appeal is heard.
Ultimately Trump wins by ceasing to issue new visas. They can’t stop that.
In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction.
Hopefully, President Trump and his team will use whatever legal means to defeat (and crush) these worthless LIBs at every level.
Trump should withdraw the appeal and rescind his EO. Then issue a nearly identical new EO tonight.
With a longer period and more countries.
Their is a bit of silver lining - if some really bad actors do get through and stir up some ‘trouble’, Trump will have a FIELD DAY running rings around them...possibly enough rings to have justification to reform the courts, or perhaps, add some Justices to Supreme Court - make it 13, rather than 9 Justices, for example.
Oh, well sure they can.
An illegal immigrant sues on the left coast stating that he has a right to be issued a visa, federal hack judge finds for the defendant because racism, Statue of Liberty is crying blah, blah, blah, new right for anyone in the world to enter the country on visa mystically found in Constitution.
It seems to me that these black robed gods can do anything they want, any time they want for any reason they want to anyone they want, and there isn’t anything anyone can do about it.
Congress made these beasts. Congress needs to unmake them.
Trump needs to open a refugee camp in San Francisco. Name it the “Pelosi Jihad Center”. Then open a refugee camp in LA, on the best beach front he can find in Malibu. Call it the “Feinstein Jihad Center”. Set up tents and Porta Johns all over the beaches.
The a-holes want Muslim refugees, then give them what they want.
Perfect.
Here is what I read,
Your immediate ability to defend the United States is delayed due to the need to hear out an isolated parties complaint.
God, I hope this doesn’t happen why we are being nuked.
Go into Afghanistan and get the nastiest Taliban crap you can find, and put them in front of Barbara Striesands house.
Hmmmm ..?? I’m wondering if people realize that the reason we had a Judge from the State of Washington file the lawsuit, was for a specific reason .. ALL APPEALS HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE 9th CIRCUIT COURT of APPEALS IN SAN FRANCISCO (a Sanctuary City) [Of course, we call them the 9th CIRCUS].
THIS IS JUST MORE COLLUSION ON THE LEFT TO TRY TO TAKE THE PRESIDENT DOWN. THAT IS THE GOAL .. THEIR ONLY GOAL. I mean, how dare he win an election and deprive Hillary of her last opportunity to be President ..?? [you know that’s how they think].
This latest snafu is just par for the course. President Trump’s people better get used to it .. and get better prepared next time .. because these attacks are not going to stop.
What McConnell needs to do is put the Senate into recess for an hour and have Trump recess appoint the most right wing non-judge he can to the Supreme Court. Then McConnell needs to go nuclear with Gorsuch.
Dumb but sincere question: if the 4-4 Supremes kill the travel ban, why doesn’t Congress pass this into law? It’ll take a few weeks, but at least make it Plan B.
They already did pass it into law. The Judge doesn’t care a fig about the law.
Genius! I second that.
Most of the Federal government in DC donated to Clinton.
**************
Most of these “civil servants” are openly hostile towards Republicans. Anyone who has spent even a short time inside any of the federal departments or agencies will confirm this.
DC is chock full of liberals who feed from the federal trough. They love their sinecures and defend the Democrats no matter what. Its time for this corrupt town to work for the people instead of themselves.
