The Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld the Trump travel Ban overturning a liberal judge in Hawaii who was playing pretend president.
Liberals increasingly are in favor of open borders to anyone who wants to enter the United States. The Supreme Court disagreed with this lunacy on Tuesday.
Trump’s travel ban could result in Muslim immigration to the US to be reduced by as much as 21%.
It was a typical 5-4 decision.
More from The Hill:
In a scathing dissent on Tuesday, Sotomayor said the court’s majority, led by Chief Justice John Roberts, blindly accepted the government’s misguided invitation to set aside problematic comments Trump made before and after taking office.
“Ultimately, what began as a policy explicitly ‘calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States’ has since morphed into a ‘Proclamation’ putatively based on national-security concerns,” she said. “But this new window dressing cannot conceal an unassailable fact: the words of the President and his advisers create the strong perception that the Proclamation is contaminated by impermissible discriminatory animus against Islam and its followers.”
Sotomayor described in detail how Trump pledged on the campaign trail to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. and then criticized the Department of Justice for submitting a “watered down, politically correct version” after the president’s first order was struck down by the courts after he took office.
“Instead, he has continued to make remarks that a reasonable observer would view as an unrelenting attack on the Muslim religion and its followers,” she said. “Given President Trump’s failure to correct the reasonable perception of his apparent hostility toward the Islamic faith, it is unsurprising that the President’s lawyers have, at every step in the lower courts, failed in their attempts to launder the Proclamation of its discriminatory taint.”
Ultra liberal Sonia Sotomayor was appointed by Barack Hussein Obama to the Supreme Court in 2009.
In 2001, Sotomayor made a racist statement about being a “wise Latina” while bashing white males:
“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life,”
Take a seat, Sotomayor, your fellow wise Justice’s have spoken.
I’m guessing she gets 500K for her hate America decision and 500K to publicly protest the decision.
When I become dictator I will not allow these judges to pretend that they are President.
Guess Sonya’s clerk couldn’t find the federal statute which gives, in plain language, exclusive power to the president to decide who gets to come into the country.
People have been brainwashed to believe that we have some obligation to allow entry into the United States, which is asinine.
It was Cultural Marxism that landed Sotomayor in the court to protect those of her Latino identity from being oppressed. It was setting the stage for the flood of illegals that Zer0 and, later Hillary, would use to change the culture of America into a totalitarian tribalist state ruled by an elite class. Such tribalistic systems are what we see in those failed nations south of our border.
Based on her ignorant reasoning, then every politician who runs for office and gets elected could be sued by an aggrieved constituency because of their political rhetoric.
I disagree. I think she could turn down beds in a Motel.
Yup. Ginsburg, aged 85, already looks like a corpse and Breyer is 79. So The Wise Latina will soon be writing her 7-2 dissents.
Amen!
Sonia, what part of the explicit wording of the constitution on this subject makes your stupid opinion about why the duly elected President made a decision matter? Or are you just another feckless hunt hat wearing imbecile?
Has anyone verified she’s in the country legally?
Irrelevant. What does the Constitution say?
Er, remember, Wise Latina? The Constitution?
No...it was Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kaganand Sotomayer
Yup. Ginsburg, aged 85, already looks like a corpse and Breyer is 79. So The Wise Latina will soon be writing her 7-2 dissents.

Can’t come soon enough.
Her diabetes acting up? Quick someone give her a lollipop!
Not Kennedy in dissent, it was Breyer.
“Trump’s travel ban could result in Muslim immigration to the US to be reduced by as much as 21%.”
That’s all?
So, it was Sotomayor, Kagan, Ginsburg, and Kennedy in dissent?

Breyer was the 4th, not Kennedy.
So this idiot thinks campaign rhetoric should be used to determine what a EO means rather then what the EO actual says. What f’n moron apparently she does see the chaos this argument invites.
Wise Latina, my ass.
