Fox News’ John Roberts unable to restrain his anti-Trump bias, as he’s whining about “anti-Muslim” comments made by Trump during the campaign, and how Trump doesn’t like the third travel ban ruling, but would prefer the first one... blah, blah, blah.

Too bad, there, John. We win. Your side loses. Cry me a river.

Ya - imagine the 5-4 losses if Mitch did not hold up the vote, and DT was not elected.

For all his many failures -— this might have been the most important thing that Mitch accomplished

Even if you could irrefutably prove the premise of your argument, the result you hope for would likely not come about; because, while the President nominates a candidate for consideration to be placed on the SCOTUS, it is the Senate that confirms the candidate to that position.

Yes, the president should close the Mexican border, secure it with troops, and say no one crosses until Mexico can control its citizens and guests. The country openly encourages transit and invasion. We need to stop it. Mexico needs us more than we need them.

Wait...Mexico sends all those trucks, cars, industrial, consumer and food products by truck through the main border ports of entry

Closing off the border will still leave these open

It's just the rest of the border will be secure.

If he hadn't, he might have been primaried.

Never should have gone to that length, but, well, the communists will not willingly give up without a fight.

Something is up. SCOTUS is making far too many logical rulings lately.

I’ve said this before. In instances like this PDJT and the DOJ should apply their own stay or stay of their stay until such time as the SCOTUS weighs in again. However, lately Judge Nappy has been looking about as reliable as Dick Morris.

Close them all. Let Mexico eat the food they send to us. Send Mexicans home to help them eat it. I cannot think of a single think we get from Mexico that we cannot do without. We don’t need their people, their products, their produce, nothing.

I agree with you - let’s see if the POTUS uses the power the SCOTUS just ‘reauthorized’ for him to use.

He’s wrong. I read the actual holding. In limited cases involving relatives an Article III hearing can be held on a case-by-case basis.

I was going to get some stuff done today but watching all the clowns cry is just too fun. Total meltdown.

Now President Trump can exercise his CONSTITUTIONAL power and ban anyone he wants.

Early on I read something about “the four corners” principle that simply meant they court cannot take into account campaign statements, just the 4 corners of the paper the law is written on.

In addition to this ruling that judge in Hawaii should have been sanctioned. At the very least warned not to stick his nose in it again.

The president is already set the narrative for this argument. Sex trafficking illegal drugs and MS-13 gang members. Simply put, he has the authority to ban entry from folks from these countries without proper vetting. That would mean anyone trying to bypass the system would be automatically subject to removal
