in a brief that Trump’s order “hinders the ability of American companies to attract great talent; increases costs imposed on business; makes it more difficult for American firms to compete in the international marketplace; and gives global enterprises a new, significant incentive to build operations — and hire new employees — outside the United States.”

Of course there would be no shortage of "great talent" if they were to pay the prevailing wages in the U.S. for Americans to attract them to study science and engineering instead of international and trade law, and public policy and administration. You get what you pay for, and it's American citizens who suffer.

Clearly this is a set up.
that Feinstein slow walked the session vote to plan this counter attack.
grassley May as was well rush the Supreme Court candidacy thru now ,
Issue a reckless decision on late Friday night nationwide.
drag out the final decision until end of the week.

it's the crazies or left wingers of the 9th . trump will lose here . it's a obvious set up with soros and bezos hands in it too. trump need to have the phony non profit refugee programs stopped today .
those reckless non profit scams need to stop .
Then have the state cancel all visas from Arab areas tonight and wait to reissue ones that pass.
all welfare payments to phony refugee frozen by the state dept tonight too. Have the state dept just it dept paperwork .

The other side's brief predictably used the gay marriage decision, United States v. Windsor, to advance the argument in favor of judicial tyranny.

The argument goes something like this:

When any law makes a distinction between people (which all laws do), the judicial branch should disallow the law if the judicial branch finds the distinction lacks "a rational basis related to a legitimate government purpose".

In other words, if a judge finds a law unreasonable, it is therefore unconstitutional and should be struck down.

In other words, judges have total veto authority over all legislation based on their personal opinions.

Scalia referred to this as an arbitrary judicial tyranny...

Today’s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court.
...And we can see that Scalia's prophecy has come true: the ramifications have spread far beyond gay marriage, where it was first applied. The only remedy for this, foreshadowed by Scalia, is a humiliation of the judicial branch by a branch which actually wields power:
Hubris is sometimes defined as o’erweening pride; and pride, we know, goeth before a fall. The Judiciary is the “least dangerous” of the federal branches because it has “neither Force nor Will, but merely judgment; and must ultimately depend upon the aid of the executive arm” and the States, “even for the efficacy of its judgments.” With each decision of ours that takes from the People a question properly left to them—with each decision that is unabashedly based not on law, but on the “reasoned judgment” of a bare majority of this Court—we move one step closer to being reminded of our impotence.

The problem in this case is whether Trump and the judiciary are ready to go at it.

"The hearing, which will be conducted by telephone..."

Is there some reason such an important hearing can't be conducted inside a courtroom?

How about we just have a national Purge of liberal leaders day.

One day, like the Purge movie, except we get rid of the virulently liberal professors, journalists, rioters, judges, actors, singers, politicians, community organizers, and billionaire Nazi supporters who fund these people.

Mass pardon from the president the day following.

Then we try this whole immigration issue again to see if we need a second purge day.

Ok. I’m venting. But these people need to understand conservatives are tired of dealing with liberals.

The People have spoken. We want Trump to do what he said he would do.

We don’t want the mass importation of Islamiscists, liberals, those depending on government assistance, or the perpetually aggrieved.

We don’t want socialized medicine.

We don’t want homosexual marriage forced upon us as an innate right subjecting private citizens to lawsuit abuse.

We don’t want our money spent to abort babies.

We don’t want election fraud. We want voter ID laws. We want checks and balances. And we want to keep the electoral college as a hedge against mass fraud.

We are open to an amicable divorce from liberals. If not, we are reluctantly willing to go to war. Literally.

We took their abuse patiently for the past 8 years. We’re not going to keep taking it.

Enough is enough.

Did those tech companies and law professors oppose similar suspensions of immigration, under 6-7 previous Presidents, and recently under the Obama administration?

SCORE:

Liberals 1
Trump 100 (at least)

Conservative revolution has just begun.

The bench is entrenched. Cannot drain the swamp overnight therefore will not win them all.

But we are still winning. Big league.

Stay grateful and optimistic

Telephone again. Really? Is this the 1950s? Planes fly to the west coast from everywhere hundreds of times a day. It loses something when via phone and is the epitome of chicken sh!t.

Do it right, guys; be professional.
