“...The President’s Executive Order falls squarely within his lawful authority in seeking to protect our Nation’s security, and the Department will continue to defend this Executive Order in the courts,” DOJ said in a statement Wednesday night.
There must be ways to accomplish this goal without EOs.
“””There must be ways to accomplish this goal without EOs.”””
Get rid of most of the people in the State Department who work on immigrant applications.
If nothing else, they need to take it the U.S. Supreme Court this time. Render these Democrat-appointed district judges irrelevant on this issue once and for all.
Well, I think there is, actually. Defund ALL VISA OPERATIONS until the Democrat Fed Judiciary sees the light.
Shakespeare’s oft misinterpreted statement about “first, kill all the lawyers” really should be modified.
Congress could take it up and pass a bill even more specific than 8 USC 1152 (f) which grants the President virtually unfettered discretion to decide who enters the country.
Lots of luck with that, though.
“There must be ways to accomplish this goal without EOs.”
Yes there is. Congress can pass a law accomplishing the same goal. Congress can also pass a law restricting the federal judiciary from jurisdiction over immigration and visitation to the United States.
Unfortunately today’s Congress will not even pass the same legislation to overturn Obamacare it passed 6 times during Obama’s reign.
If Congress was doing its job there would be no need for executive orders.
He should not be bound by a mere trial court judge. He should ignore it, citing national security interests.
- Have Tillerson order his State people (that way the absurd “Trump is a racist” legal argument is void)
- Congress can order the courts to not take on these cases
- Supreme Court, but requires Gorsuch there
The easiest way around this is to simply have U.S. Customs & Immigration officials stop processing visa applications from any of those five countries. Let the stupid judges who issued these rulings go to those countries and process the applications themselves.
This is getting ridiculous. Do these so-called judges even have the right to do this?
Executive orders are the appropriate way to handle this
This kind of restriction is not uncommon and has never been a problem in the past
Americans really need to consider why there is suddenly so much pressure to flood the country with untracable military age Muslim men from Islamic Jihadi war torn countries, especially since the wars are pretty much over and the Jihadi lost
Refugees are typically from the losing side. The terrorists lost and are now seeking to flee the countries they have terrorized and our politicians seem obsessed with bringing them here, giving them new identities and government paid welfare
In WWII it was the Nazis fleeing to South America, now its ISIS al-Qaeda terrororists being relocated to America.
What’s it like being a ####ing p#### and running like a little b.tch to a judge every time something doesn’t go your way?
You have to be a real f....t to CONSTANTLY do that.
And you do not believe in a republic.
There are ways, but with PRyno and Ditch we are screwed.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
A ‘Federal’ judge in Hawaii?
These judges must be removed! Federal judges can be removed from office by impeachment and conviction by congressional vote.
Get on the stick, Republicrats!!!
