The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to hear the case on Donald Trump’s “Travel Ban”. They will hear arguments in October, but many of the provisions will be allowed to go ahead until then. The US can now halt immigration from the 6 proscribed nations except for those who have family ties within America. But a 9-0 decision raises a bigger question; what does this tell us about the 9th and 4th Circuit Judges who ruled against Trump earlier this year?
Justices on the Supreme Court are not in position to make laws, that’s the job of Congress; they are there to interpret the law as it applies to each case they hear. So when the Judges ruled against Trump’s Executive Order, were they merely interpreting the law as they saw it, or were they involved in political activism to suit their own ideological agenda?

In an ideal world, those judges would be removed from office.
Ask Traitor Roberts re 0DontCare.....
“But a 9-0 decision raises a bigger question; what does this tell us about the 9th and 4th Circuit Judges who ruled against Trump earlier this year?”
What does this tell us about Obama DOJ holdover Sally Yates who would refused to defend the ban because she said it was constitutionally indefensible. A 9 to zip SC decision telling
us it was is confirmation this partisan incompetent should have been fired.
It tells them to get their damned politics out of their decisions and use the constitution for a change.
“It tells them to get their damned politics out of their decisions and use the constitution for a change.”
It also tells Congress it should start doing its job by reasserting the power of the legislature versus the judiciary. One way to do so is exercising the power of impeachment to address judges who ignore the law and play politics.
I propose a three strikes and you’re out for federal judges. Any federal judge those decisions are over ruled by the Supreme Court three or more times should be subject to automatically retirement.
SCOTUS only agreed to hear the case and may well end up agreeing with them after they do - assuming the whole case isn't moot since it will be past the 90 days requested to formulate a vetting plan.
I would propose tar and feathers as a start.
Exactly. ..know the Constitution and laws...or you are GONE!

Unfortunately those lunatic judges are appointed for life.

Roberts was blackmailed over the illegal adoption of his kids.

Probably an illegal adoption plus some other tidbits he doesn’t want the wife to know about.

You have no contact with reality!
This is/was a clear cut “Separation of Powers” issue, and there is nothing really for the court to wade into.
The 9-0 decision is a clear indication that they know they have no venue on the actions the president took.

I think we are pretty darned near the point where Congress will give Trump the power to purge the judiciary. But if Congress doesn’t then we need to keep in mind that Trump has virtually unlimited authority when it comes to protecting We The People.
So, if Trump deems a court decision to be a grave threat to national security, he’s free to ignore it. He’s also able to arrest everyone who is actively aiding and abetting the enemy or otherwise conspiring against the country — even judges and members of Congress — and put them before military tribunals.
No president has ever used power in exactly that way. But we have never had a government so deeply infiltrated with enemies before. We need to let Trump know we’ll be with him when he does what needs to be done.
No judge is free to legislate from the bench at any level. Unfortunately liberal judges (mostly) have seen fit to usurp this power without regard to the intent of the founding fathers. The law and judicial history dealing with immigration is well settled. The President has a virtual free hand in this area as adjudicated by the Supreme Court decades ago. As such, the legal principle of stare decisis is controlling. In other words let the decision stand.
“Semimojo” is a lefty that has somehow managed to escape the zot - just look at past posts, always the “contrarian”. But he won’t escape for much longer.
Want to see what I mean? Ask semi who he voted for in 2016 and watch he/she/it squirm.
Put those judges on Elon Musk’s rocket to Mars.
IMHO the judges should never be raised to the next level in the court system.
Maybe you should tell SCOTUS.
"To begin, we grant both of the Government’s petitions for certiorari and consolidate the cases for argument. The Clerk is directed to set a briefing schedule that will permit the cases to be heard during the first session of October Term 2017."
