This is a lie. The branches are not equal. The Judicial was always intended to be the weakest of the three and for good reason given the Founding Father's experience with judges in the British Imperial system.

Given Gorsuch's recent clear warning to lower courts these self-aggrandizing, activist judges will soon be put in their place.

For clarification, Flavius, meaning the myth of ‘Co-Equal’ branches is a lie, not your post ;-)

This judge isn't an activist. He ruled correctly given the procedural way the Trump Administration chose to attack the Order.

Legally, it was just stupid. My guess is the Trump Administration was able to cite little or no precedent for the relief it was seeking. If you can't give the judge a road map as to how he can lawfully do what you want him to do, you can expect to lose every single time.
