Summary:Democrats are not bound by laws; Republicans are prisoners of the law.
Reality is that the left is pushing the right, for a fight. Eventually, it’s going to be a question of who starts using muscle/shooting first.
The left will just continue to use the one thing they have left in this country, the 9th circuit and a bunch of liberal federal judges, along with vast armies of lawyers paid for by Soros and his kind.
At some point, the rest of us need to say enough is enough and incarcerate/remove these people.
Yup. And this is a way to tie us up in knots: endless legal arguments effectively preventing anything from happening.
Just an Alinsky tactic: Robart did not follow the law, but engaged in a burlesque of it. His ruling gave no arguments to buttress his assertions. But that will be litigated for weeks, while he chortles and calls his handlers who tell him "well done".
Since there is already a law on the books regarding immigration how can these Judges overturn the existing law?
Democrats have stationed themselves to own the Federal Government. Communists Democrats and ISIS are one and the same, TERRORISTS. Most of President Trump efforts will be canceled by the communists local and Federal courts.
Agreed. I googled Judge Robart and he is has left wing as can be. What was Bush thinking of when he nominated this “activist?”
Trump really should have pushed back on judicial tyranny...by appealing the order but leaving the ban IN PLACE during the appeal, and citing the 1952 law as “longstanding, settled precedent.”
Judge Robart’s decision, handed down Friday night, did four things. First, it concluded that the States of Washington and Minnesota had legal standing to challenge the executive order.
When did this Judge of this inferior court begin to believe he alone was the Supreme Court??? This is a Case where a “STATE” is a “Party to the action” is it not???
In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.
Shouldn’t he and EVERY OTHER JUDGE that Impersonated the Supreme Court be Impeached and removed from the bench??
A question for anyone who really knows:
Is there any real legal reason why the President cannot apply religion for any reason he chooses in limiting immigration?
Laws that are applicable to citizens of course. But non-citizens? I’m don’t think so.
The ‘Rats know which of the 677 Federal District Judges are likely to legislate from the bench in sympathy with the ‘rat emotional arguments on any given subject.
The GOP Congress and president are in power. Isn’t it time for them to restructure the Federal bench as conservatives have been demanding for years? Specifically, divorcing the 9th Circuit from Arizona, Alaska, Nevada, Idaho, and Montana at the very least.
Folks, the liberals will just make it up out of thin air if necessary.
Fake news
Fake polls
Fake law
This is nothing more than legislation by fiat, the overruling of a clearly authorized presidential edict by one man who can't even be bothered to cite his reasoning (assuming there is any).
I think Trump should take the offensive and instruct all immigration officials to continue to enforce the restrictions. It is not up to him to prove he has the right; it is up to the country's enemies to prove he is wrong.
The Bush family is an enduring curse on this nation. George W. Bush was incompetent and the stooge of his very nasty father.
“Reality is that the left is pushing the right, for a fight. Eventually, it’s going to be a question of who starts using muscle/shooting first.”
This is my fear...the Left, through disruptive violent protests and Leftist judicial activism will create a flashpoint that turns this into an open, and deadly civil war. That is how the Trump restoration program can get hijacked...and the Left knows it. If the Left can’t own the country, they will destroy it violently.
If religion cannot be considered by Trump how come it could be considered by Obama. Obama importation of Muslims is by definition based on race.
I meant religion, but one cannot edit a post.
My guess on all these who were nominated by Reagan, or one of the Bushes, other than in Bork’s case, is that they knew NOTHING about the nominee, but took someone else’s word on how great they were. IMHO, Trump is the first Republican to show due diligence in making his selection.
