President Trump’s “Muslim ban,” the focus of so much Left hysteria, is dead for the time being, after the hard-Left 9th Circuit Court of Appeals struck it down. What is odd, however, in their ruling is that it never even mentions the relevant law by which Trump claims the authority to limit immigration in the first place. Here it is:
(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.

The courts are on the side of terrorists and against the safety of the American people.
It’s not the Law, but who rules.
The tyranny of the black-robed despots.
The federal judge who halted President Donald Trump's travel ban was wrong in stating that no one from the seven countries targeted in Trump's order has been arrested for extremism in the United States since the 2001 terrorist attacks.
In fact, as a new report finds, 72 individuals from the seven 'mostly Muslim countries' covered by President Trump's "extreme vetting" executive order have been convicted of terrorism since 9/11.
And now, having denied President Trump's appeal, claiming his policy "would cause irreparable injury," would cause irreparable injury, it seems the entire premise of the seven "mostly muslim" nations' mostly-peaceful, non-terrorist ways are in doubt as The Center for Immigration Studies shows that...
A review of information compiled by a Senate committee in 2016 reveals that 72 individuals from the seven countries covered in President Trump's vetting executive order have been convicted in terror cases since the 9/11 attacks.
In June 2016 the Senate Subcommittee on Immigration and the National Interest, then chaired by new Attorney General Jeff Sessions, released a report on individuals convicted in terror cases since 9/11.
Using open sources (because the Obama administration refused to provide government records), the report found that 380 out of 580 people convicted in terror cases since 9/11 were foreign-born.
The report is no longer available on the Senate website, but a summary published by Fox News is available here (link on FR).
The Center has obtained a copy of the information compiled by the subcommittee. The information compiled includes names of offenders, dates of conviction, terror group affiliation, federal criminal charges, sentence imposed, state of residence, and immigration history.
The Center has extracted information on 72 individuals named in the Senate report whose country of origin is one of the seven terror-associated countries included in the vetting executive order: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. The Senate researchers were not able to obtain complete information on each convicted terrorist, so it is possible that more of the convicted terrorists are from these countries.
The United States (under Obama and then-DHS Secy Jeh Johnson) has admitted terrorists from all of the seven dangerous countries: ◦Somalia: 20 ◦Yemen: 19 ◦Iraq: 19 ◦Syria: 7 ◦Iran: 4 ◦Libya: 2 ◦Sudan: 1 ◦Total: 72
According to the report, at least 17 individuals entered as refugees from these terror-prone countries. Three came in on student visas and one arrived on a diplomatic visa.

“The court ruling on Trump’s immigration ban is clearly judicial misconduct. “
The ruling was that the president cannot ban legal residents from reentering the U.S.
Law? We don’t have to show you no steenkin’ law. The chains of collectivism are placed on Americans by anti-Constitutionalists in black robes. Illegals keep pouring in. The republic is under attack by enemies foreign and domestic.
War by asymmetric means.
And that is why any judge who fails to consider Article II of the Constitution and any subsequent and applicable law should be impeached.
You get the idea.
According to the judge, Washington State and Minnesota have the right to set immigration policy, but the President of the United States does not. Sheesh
No problem. The Circuit court ruling wasn’t signed by any of the 3 justices.
OTOH, I wouldn’t be surprised if a contingent of armed Marines showed up at court tomorrow to escort the 3 justices, and the AG and governor of WA, to Gitmo to await trial for obstructing an officer in the performance of his national security duties (Trump).
So now, as according to law, President Trump can issue an order stopping all muzzies from entering the country.
This will cause a lot of exploding heads.
President Trump needs to bring visas from those countries to a near halt. If we can’t ban them, make future visas VERY rare.
Assign just one person to handle all of the visas from all of those countries and give him clear orders to make sure every one granted is so thoroughly vetted that he would be happy to have that person stay in his home or he doesn’t approve the visa - and give the job to someone injured in the Baltimore Marathon bombing, the Orlando night club shooting, the San Bernardino attack, the Fort Hood workplace violence, or one of the other attacks that “never happened” under Obama.
If the courts overreach their proper bounds, they need to deal with unintended consequences.
