A Seattle federal district court has issued a preliminary injunction on President Trump's controversial immigration executive order, which temporarily banned most immigration from seven predominantly Muslim countries and also shut down the refugee program for 120 days.

The injunction, by Judge James Robart, effectively extends the temporary restraining order he issued earlier this month into an indefinite nationwide block of Trump's immigration order.

wow... completely unconstitutional power grab by the judiciary.

I know Trump is afraid to stand up to this because everyone is already calling him a dictator. But... he HAS TOO! otherwise we are living in a judicial dictatorship.

The president MAIN job is national security, the courts have ZERO say in the matter, period.

Since when does the Judiciary run the foreign policy of the United States government?Immigration control and lack there of is part of our foreign policy.

Get the Judiciary out of these decisions.They’re intruding where they don’t belong.

How about ALL inbound flights from the middle east must land at SEATAC, and all of the seven ME country visa holders arriving there are NOT allowed to leave Washington state, or better yet, not allowed to go further east than I-5.

It is time to end this crap.

President Trump should dispatch the military to control all ports of entry.

Conservatives respect and abide by the law. Vile, sub-human POS liberal scum don't and instead see cultural/societal norms, morality, and laws as impediments to be ignored, perverted, or eliminated...

Trump is not frozen in inaction. He’s waiting for the Senate to seat Gorsush to the SCOTUS.

Then, full speed ahead and federal judge overreach smack-down.

Also, McCain (of all people) has introduced bill into the Senate to break up the 9th into multiple courts. I predict it will be done.

It SEEMS slow, but all will be addressed. Patience, Grasshopper!

A black-robed mullah has usurped executive branch authority.

If I was Trump I would place him under arrest for violating the Constitution.

"Where the hell is Congress??"

They are the weak link in Trump's defense of the US. Too many in Congress are more likely to move against the Trump Administration than they are the Judiciary. Many of them are active open borders advocates and working to enable more invaders whether they be called refugees, immigrants or just "undocumented border crossers." The enemy is among us and throughout the government.

Oh, Robart is probably colluding with the 9th every day, to coordinate their plan.

“does this imply anything about the impending 9th en banc decision?”

Almost certainly. I can’t believe this District Judge would have expanded his order if he didn’t already know the en banc decision soon to come from the 9th Circuit would support the restraining order.

It’s time to begin charging these judges with sedition and simply arresting them.
