Amen to your post.

Can you give us insight of the way ahead if the cowardly House Republicans stick to their current "plan", which is "Do - Nothing"?

What are Trump's options?

1. Can he issue another order?

2. If the 9th "Circus" refuses to act, can he appeal to the SC?

3. Can he order agencies to comply in such a way as to go around the Seattle judge's order?

What's next?

I fear that if Trump is defeated on this, he will be severely weakened politically.

I’ve seen liberal judges spin fantasies on the bench, this ruling is based on calling people who dare to protect America racist. The leftists WILL declare even illegals a protected class, do not doubt me.

All I've been able to read are news accounts of the Ninth Circuit's refusal to immediately dissolve so-called Judge Robart's TRO, not the actual Ninth Circuit ruling itself, which cryptic and brief as it may be might shed more light on what I could otherwise analyze at this point. But I believe this is the USDOJ's next step:

1. Emergency appeal of the anticipated denial of the government's request for stay of the nationwide TRO, which looks like that will happen on Tuesday at the latest. In the meantime, the Senate needs to confirm Gorsuch on MONDAY.

2. President Trump may have to revise the EO a bit to remove the taint of a religious basis for the temporary pause by not referring to an exemption for adherents to or members of religions which are a minority in the affected, 7 countries. I don't have the EO in front of me but I believe such language is in there and was unnecessary, just afforded the Dem lawyers a small basis to justify their TRO application.

Trump should open a refugee camp in the judges hometown, and send him the nastiest ones he can find.

Let this SOB swim in it.

Trump can issue another EO tomorrow. If the Federal judiciary on the Marxist Coast wants to spend the rest of their careers hearing challenges to EOs that follow the plain language of a Federal statute, then let them have at it.
