On June 12, 2017, three judges on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled that President Donald Trump’s second executive order imposing a temporary ban on “entry” into the United States should be read as if it stated that the ban was on “the issuance of an immigrant visa.” This made it possible for Judges Michael Daly Hawkins, Ronald M. Gould, and Richard A. Paez, all appointed by President Bill Clinton, to hold that the temporary ban was subject to a statutory prohibition on discrimination because of a person’s nationality “in the issuance of an immigrant visa.” There is no statutory prohibition on nationality-based discrimination in the president’s determination of whether a person can enter the United States. In addition, these judges “interpreted” the law to mean something that the law does not state, so that even if the executive order were to be interpreted accurately, it would run afoul of the law.

Time for the Nineth Circuit Court to be broken up.
The 14th amendment does not apply to foreign nations.
EVERY immigration law the United States ever made discriminated on the basis of nationality. No judges tried to question that.
It's the ultimate absurdity: you can't prevent your enemies from "immigrating"? If 2 million members of the People's Liberation Army simply walk in, that's OK because we are powerless to stop them?
Dunno.
I think we might be safer with all the clowns in one circus...
The Founding Fathers put remedy in place: Impeachment. They didn’t count on the pusillanimous nature of future politicians, however.
2/3 of the Senate will convict? On what planet?
The Ninth Circus is a FAKE Court! It is made up of DNC Activists posing as “Judges” - they should be impeached and removed from the bench.
4th Circuit too, it appears. And depending on the nature of the case (RKBA cases), all of the Circuits “make it up.”
Split it up!!!!!!
