On a purely objective basis, the grounds on which these liberal judges chose to reject the now TWO Executive Orders has no foundation whatsoever. Uniformly, they have relied on the possibility that the order MAY have been a blanket ban on Muslims, because of a statement that Trump as a candidate made over a year ago, and not on the question of whether the right to make such a ban is Constitutional.
A decision WAY beyond their pay grade.
Someone should ask the Judge that since the president does have the constitutional power for such a travel ban, but the judge’s contention be that it is “discriminating” against a certain particular group, then would the judge agree that a ban on ALL TRAVEL FROM ALL COUNTRIES TO THE UNITES STATES would just be HUNKY DORY A-OK?????
Trump should publicly go “King Solomon” on this pathetic Judge!
I would love to see Trump send all the Syrian unvetted refugees to Hawaii. Let the Hawaii tourism take the hit when people have to decide if Syrians pose a threat to Hawaii from potential terrorism.
Let people from all over the world know Hawaii is vulnerable because Leftist Judges who don’t have the Presidential daily threat breifings decide not to allow him to keep America safe.
Let Hawaii go without tourists let them learn that These Muslims may pose the threat Trump said they do.
I know many Americans won’t risk their life to go to Hawaii.
Good point re the precedent, but
HOW CAN THE COURTS STOP A CONSTITUTIONAL POWER OF THE EXEC. BRANCH AT ALL? It should be laughed at and ignored.
American muslims ARE islam.
They can’t.
If Trump ignores it, it gives the media more fake bullets to fire.
It’s bollocks.
The left is actively blocking the will of the people and how our country works. That’s straight up treason.
In the Maryland case the plaintiff, a Muslim resident alien, claimed her religious rights were violated by denying entry to her relative, also Muslim.
Clearly this ruling means any foreign national enjoys constitutional protections if they have a relative legally residing in the US. Let that sink in for a minute and think about the broader implications.
The appeal would be up to the Supreme Court now if we had Judge Neil Gorsuch confirmed and on the court.
Judicial TYRANNY on display.
Anti-constitutional, anti-truth, anti-freedom. America’s robed mullahs ALERT!
LOCK THEM UP!
I’d say pursue these judges smuggling illegals and terrorists on Federal
RIcO charges. They are not above the law.
The government should not undermine our citizenship by smuggling terror for its own registration ends
Why hasn’t this judge been given the Judge Roy Moore treatment and run out of town on a rail?
Under 8 USC 1152 (f) the President can ban entire classes of people from entering the country. Intent is not an element of the statute. Nor is there language about religion in the EO.
To base the ruling on statements made in the past and worse yet, by Rudy, is absurd.
Basically, it doesn’t matter what he said. The statute gives the President virtually unfettered discretion.
How the Constitution gets into it is a mystery to me. Foreign nationals on foreign soil have no Constitutional rights.
 The crashes were not because the airplane had any inherent flaws, they were because the airplane's performance exceeded even the highly-trained test pilots' G-tolerance.
Whoops! Totally wrong thread!
Trump needs to ignore it, period.
Glad you did. I followed the trail back to the story. A couple of hot-rods, F-16N and f-20
President Trump has a DUTY to the Law to specifically ENFORCE IT when others patently and OBVIOUSLY dismiss it. He FAILS in this duty when he acts as though the rogue courts aren’t going rogue.
