Trump travel ban: Hawaii judge extends hold on implementing executive order
Foxnews.com ^ | March 30, 2017

A federal judge in Hawaii issued an extension on his order blocking President Trump’s travel ban hours after hearing arguments Wednesday.

Hawaii contends the travel ban discriminates against Muslims and hurts the state’s tourist-dependent economy. State Attorney General Douglas Chin argued that the ban’s implied message is like a “neon sign flashing ‘Muslim ban, Muslim ban” that the government did not bother to turn off.

Extending the temporary order until the state's lawsuit was resolved would ensure the constitutional rights of Muslim citizens across the U.S. are vindicated after "repeated stops and starts of the last two months," the state has said.

The Trump administration had asked Judge Derrick Watson, a federal judge in Hawaii, to narrow his ruling to cover only the part of the president’s executive order that suspends new visas for people from six Muslim-

Another example of a political activism. President Trump should ignore this ruling and move on implementing his E.O. This is within his constitutional authority to dictate who is allowed in this country. This judge overstep his constitutional bounds and he should be immediately impeached.

I imagine Barry promised him that he’d stop by and spend the night on his way back to the U.S. if his butt boy would extend this Syrian invasion bull****.

I don’t think it would be easy when there are Republicans who identify more with Dems than with Pubs. There are so many liberal Republicans in both houses, it is disgusting.

President Trump should ignore these low-life hacks and mandate the enforcement of the E.O. The judges don’t have the authority to override what has been delegated to the Executive Branch.

This judicial activism is putting the stamp on Hawaii as place you want to visit, but you don’t want to live there. For the place of a plane ticket to Hawaii, I can have quite a vacation closer to home.

Waiting for Gorsuch to squash these lower court idiots.

Some observers think the Supremes would reverse the 9th right now, even with only 8 Justices.

Why did no federal judge block any of Obama’s orders?

because conservatives don't fight and liberals do.

If we were like them this judge would be in the process of being impeached right now AND our people would be outside of his house 24 hours a day making noise so he can't sleep, or go anywhere without being hassled.

They win, because they are willing to do what it takes.

I know what both of you are saying.

My question is - why then ReincePriebus Chief of Staff?

The little man in the big black robe is trying to show what a Big Man he is by sticking his tongue out at the President.

The comeuppance will be coming soon, although other more pressing matters take precedence at the moment.

I would love to visit Alaska with a fishing pole and a large cooler. The days of sitting out in the sun getting melanoma are a thing of the past. Salmon is on sale for $7.99/LB at our Safeway. One can get round trip tickets to Anchorage for good prices on Alaska. I am sure I could beat Safeway’s prices for the cost of a vacation.

Hawaii can burn in hell.

You are so right. With the exception of Donald Trump, I see no difference in the rest. What are the Republicans doing that Nancy Pelosi would’nt do?

.

What I don’t understand and amazes me is how an entire country of infinite bureaucracy ruling over 300+ million people can be brought to its knees by the single opinion of one individual, a government servant no less.

There is something very wrong with this picture......

travel ban discriminates against Muslims

That's a little like saying locks discriminate against burglars.
