Judge John Coughenour, a Reagan-appointed judge in Seattle, issued a nationwide temporary injunction against Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order on Thursday.
Last month Judge John Coughenour temporarily blocked Trump’s birthright citizenship order until February 6 (today) in response to a lawsuit filed by Democrat state attorneys general.
According to President Trump’s order, the 14th Amendment is being misinterpreted by the left to give citizenship to ‘anchor babies.’
..... Snip.....
ABC News reported:
A federal judge in Seattle has issued a nationwide preliminary injunction against President Donald Trump’s executive order on birthright citizenship — one day after a judge in Maryland also issued a temporary block on the order.
“It has become ever more apparent that to our president, the rule of law is but an impediment to his policy goals,” Judge John Coughenour said.
“The constitution is not something with which the government may play policy games,” Coughenour added. “The preliminary injunction is granted on a nationwide basis.”

Ignore him
i do not think he has that authority
Perhaps you missed Reagan's massive illegal alien amnesty.
Good - appeal to 9th Circuit, they affirm and it goes to SCOTUS.
Only would be better if a conservative district/circuit rules in the opposite, forcing SCOTUS to take the question.
Like with all the Obama birth certificate lawsuits, they’re going to use the Wong Kim Ark case to declare anchor babies citizens, not natural born Citizens.
“It has become ever more apparent that to our president, the rule of law is but an impediment to his policy goals,” Judge John Coughenour said.
“The constitution is not something with which the government may play policy games,” Coughenour added. “The preliminary injunction is granted on a nationwide basis.”
USAID recipient?
If the framers wanted birthright citizenship they would have said “anyone born here is a citizen” and stopped there.
But they added a ‘jurisdictions’ clause. Meaning you have to be born here under our legal rules, not anther country’s.
Even Reagan had to deal with RINO’s
Stop kvetching over political affiliation, and focus on the money.
(Perhaps you missed Reagan’s massive illegal alien amnesty.)
I remember it. How many wetbacks did he actually give amnesty to?
Yup. Let the Judicial Branch call up their armored divisions and force the Executive Branch to bend the knee. The judges are not the boss. They have no enforcement power. Screw the judges.
The official number was 3 million.
All persons born or naturalized in the United States are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
And not:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
I seriously hope they have a plan to deal with these judges.
Another Seattle creep who can’t understand the amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
Send hundreds of these ladies to Seattle.
Perhaps you wanna stop taking shots at a GREAT MAN who wasn’t perfect.
Perhaps there’s a bunch of ungrateful ####s that FORGET what he did for this great country...saved it.
And took down an empire.
Perhaps the people that take shots at Him are the same little b..tches that cry like littie girls if ONE BAD WORD is said about Trump...those people need to grow the #### up.
Trump is a very good president.
Ronald Reagan had more class in his indexs finger than ANY president since has had in their whole body.
Time to go total Andrew Jackson
Yup. Do as Dems. Ignore and proceed.
Time to sic DOGE on our judges.
