We all know this.
The $64,000 question now is: "Where does this go?"
Is it appealed to the Supreme Court? Does the Trump administration ignore the judge's unconstitutional order?
What?
How dare trump think he could do what obama has done for 8 years
8 U.S. Code § 1182 - Inadmissible aliens
(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.
Whenever means whenever.
Any means ANY.
Bottom line: had he wanted to ban all Muslims, he could have easily done so and been well within his rights to do so.
Time to remove judge Jimmy from office for misbehavior. It would serve to nip this lawlessness in the bud.
To paraphrase another great President: the judge has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it.
Grab him as an enemy combatant and send the judge to Gitmo and waterboard him. Then ignore his ruling.
More of the stench from the bench. These little mini dictators in their blackrobes do not make laws. If they won’t enforce the law, remove them. The people have had enough of the blackrobed tyrants.
They’re trying to set him up for impeachment as soon as possible. I don’t want him falling into that trap. I think he needs to become acquainted with his veto powers. It looks like it’s time to grind things to a halt and leave them that way until we can all come to an understanding about how things are and how they’re going to be.
This is “Lawfare” at work. Use our own laws to destroy us “legally.”
Judge Robart, who was appointed by George W. Bush (should we be surprised, or not?) has clearly usurped his authority. The case clearly has no plaintiffs with standing or any kind of validity. At most Judge Robart should have stayed his decision pending appeal to circuit courts. His radical injunction smacks of a judicial coup, of a single federal district judge asserting his authority over the entire executive branch. His arguments for doing so are unconstitutional, as is his manner of issuing the order. We are living in a time when judicial Ayatollahs are usurping the power of our elected officials, and it is very much like a judicial coup.
This judge is on the extreme left geographically and philosophically. Radical, unconstitutional rulings by judges should, after appropriate consideration, be ignored.
How quickly can the DOJ get this before an appellant court?? or - can they take straight to the Supremes?
Trump should say: we will take the case directly to the Supreme Court and meanwhile let the judge try to enforce it, with no federal district attorneys, secret service, federal marshals, FBI or any other force doing his bidding.

It is a travesty that a couple hundred lower level judges around the country can function as a power above the congress and the president over the entire nation. At most, such a judge should have authority only in their own district. Personally I wouldn’t allow even that. I’d instead allow them + appeals, if their issue survives appeals, expedited access to the scotus.
The idea of little dictators around the country is obscene.
If this is a “muslim ban” then, under that logic, stopping illegals from mexico is really a catholic ban.
The judge was appointed by GWB.
It figures that a whining mangina simp libtart from the Left Coast would do such an act, as a judge.

Trump needs to simply ignore the “order”. The president doesn’t have power but only if the judiciary allows.
Judicial islamist facilitation.
