Who determines where refugees are settled? We need to make sure from now on they only get settled in Washington and Hawaii

Why isn't Trump simply ignoring these court orders?

Why aren't these "judges" facing impeachment?

Judge Watson's Abominable Travel Ban Ruling

How exactly can an unelected shyster in Hawaii over rule the President and set foreign policy?

The ban should be enforced at least while it is in the appeals process.

Congress has some perfect opportunities to set an example in following the Constitution. If they’re going to make up individual rights (their health insurance replacement) and government powers (with the budget), they really shouldn’t demand the judiciary branch follow the Constitution either.

The judge must believe that killing non-Muslims is one of the pillars of Islam.

On "Fox & Friends" this morning they pointed out that Hawaii has let in exactly zero immigrants from the six countries named in the executive order.

In addition historical jurisprudence has established that while noncitizens living in the US are granted Constitutional protections outlined in the Bill of Rights, noncitizens who are not yet living here are afforded no such protection. Even of the EO did violate the establishment clause, it would be irrelevant since the prospective immigrants affected by it are not granted any right to freedom of religion in the US.

For decades, the courts have arrogated to themselves the power to act outside their constitutional authority by usurping the legislative function of writing and rewriting, rather than interpreting, laws and adjudicating their constitutionality.

Well...why wouldn't they? Congress and the Executive Branch have sat back for decades while their constitutional powers have been abrogated by the Judiciary. This is not a new phenomena, it's been going on for decades. We finally have a President who will fight back but I'm sorry to say that we have the same old corrupt and weak Congress.

“Why aren’t these ‘judges’ facing impeachment?”

Being brilliant, intellectual, Progressive geniuses, who are above the law and who know better than all of humanity and its silly laws, they are above and beyond any consequences for their actions.

/s/

IMHO

The fact that there are no consequences for these judges' arrogant judicial overreaches means that they can do what they want with impunity, even if their decision is later overturned.

There needs to be a slew of impeachments. And I mean DOZENS, if not HUNDREDS.

Didn’t this judge meet with Obama just prior to this ruling? What a coincidence!

There is only one way to stop this. When a judge is usurping the powers granted to POTUS, his or her ruling should be ignored.

These judges need to be made to recognize their limits.

Tucker Carlsen had a woman on his program last night who would not answer a direct question (paraphrasing): Are people of other countries who have never been to the US afforded the protections of the Constitution?

Even better was (paraphrasing): Following themail logic of the latest TRO, a judge could order the military to halt bombing in a time of war by citing the Establishment Clause.

There is no immigation statement by Trump in which he uses the word Muslim that he is not addressing the issue of protecting the country from terrorism, and often he says radical islamic terrorism.

There HAS to be a way to stop arrogant liberal judges from usurping a President’s authority.......

The way it is going now, they can strip a President of his authority to do ANYTHING if they want.

HAS TO BE STOPPED!

Question is - HOW?

Besides, Hawaii has never accepted refugees, and as Todd Starnes suggested the other day the Muslim refugees from the Muslim countries should be sent to Hawaii.

I agree with you that the problem is no longer the judges. It is the REPUBLICAN MAJORITY Congress which refuses to reign them in. Stop the problem with immigration immediately by removing Judicial jurisdiction with a LAW. Congress, are you listening? We know the answer to that question.
