Both Judges Who Blocked Trump’s Travel Ban Made Decision Based on Fake News

A leaked DHS document is at the center of Trump’s travel ban controversy.

Evidence that has been central to the two Federal judges instrumental in the March 15th revocation of President Trump’s travel ban was recently found to be false. The leaked Department of Homeland Security document first came to light via the Associated Press, where it was detailed in a February 24th article and has been cited as integral to the decision making process for the judges.

The most important thing to note regarding this new information is that the judges based their ruling on false information about the actual threat and risk that refugees pose in regards to national security. To compound the problem, the leaked document mentions nothing about the potential health risk refugees pose to the general public.

A completely different report compiled by Attorney General Jeff Sessions includes information that would have been more than relevant to the two impulsive judges, Theodore Chuang, federal judge for the District of Maryland and Derrick K. Watson, federal judge for the District of Hawaii. The pair blatantly missed information on two Islamic Somali refugees who committed acts of terror back in 2016. All of the information featured in the leaked document varies dramatically from the information AG Sessions had put together.

Fake news, fake judges, a fit like a hand to a glove. Their only agenda is to deride the President.

They also ignore the law that has been used many times by many presidents.

Would be nice if they made judgements based on the law. But obviously that is beyond their comprehension. Morons gotta have jobs too ya know.

Did these leaks come from the DOJ?

Comedy’s FBI?

Hopefully, it can be documented, who leaked these fake news documents and what department did it?

I’ve read the article twice and I saw no evidence in the story that the judges made their decisions “based on fake news.”

The judges didn’t cite certain facts or information from some reports that the article highlights, but nothing in the story explains what “fake news” was relied upon by the judges in making their decisions.

Did I miss something?

I think they can only be removed via impeachment for “high crimes and misdemeanors.” I’m afraid our modern judiciary is a problem our Founders never saw coming.

...

Real or fake, the decision is not for the judges to make. They should be removed from office.
