“The Justice Department argues that the state law is unconstitutional and violates the Immigration and Nationality Act. They say the state has until May 7 to stop the enforcement of the law.”
There sure is a lot of pretzel logic pulled outta dat ass. Why do they get to sue a state anyhow? When did that chickenshit start, exactly?
Don’t they have to wait for a court case like everybody else? “No standing” and all that? Would be good to hear the arguments too. Americans were never consulted on any of this, and they damn sure never voted for it.

January 2017, President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 13769 temporarily halted immigration from seven majority-Muslim nations.[63] However, lower federal courts ruled that the executive order violated the Immigration and Nationality Act’s prohibitions of discrimination on the basis of nationality and religion. In June 2017, the U.S. Supreme Court overrode both appeals courts and allowed the second ban to go into effect, but carved out an exemption for persons with “bona fide relationships” in the U.S. In December 2017, the U.S. Supreme Court allowed the full travel ban—now in its third incarnation—to take effect, which excludes people who have a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.[64] In June 2018, the Supreme Court upheld the travel ban in Trump v. Hawaii, saying that the president’s power to secure the country’s borders, delegated by Congress over decades of immigration lawmaking, was not undermined by the president’s history of arguably incendiary statements about the dangers he said some Muslims pose to the United States.[65]
