A federal judge on Thursday blocked President Donald Trump from implementing an executive order that requires voters to show documentation proving their U.S. citizenship to cast a ballot in federal elections.
U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, a Bill Clinton appointee, granted a preliminary injunction stopping the Trump administration from going forward with the proof-of-citizenship requirements as a lawsuit plays out, the Associated Press reported. The lawsuit, filed by the Democratic National Committee and leftist voting rights groups, claims that Trump’s order is “an unlawful action that threatens to uproot our tried-and-tested election systems and silence potentially millions of Americans.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.
They are shameless.
Apparently, judges can issue injunction on a purely arbitrary basis, and the victim then has to waste time and money appealing to have it lifted. such as this case right here.
Tried and tested system? Elections are a joke. The public has zero confidence in them. This is the rational…. A blatant lie?
Well Chuck made over 200 of these activists into judges so they have lots left
Take this case to the SCOTUS on the express train...
DNC Chair: ‘We can’t be both the referee, and also the player at the same time’ (directed to their loose cannon, Hogg) Fox News
That’s exactly the way we feel about their federal judges.
So we finally agree on something: Have your judges pull their horns in. Americans are fed up with them politicking.
What are we supposed to do? This ks getting so crazily out of hand.
This is just ridiculous. The judge is willing to give away our republic by allowing non-citizens to vote in our elections. I dare anyone to tell me what country on planet earth would allow non-citizens to vote in their elections. Absolutely preposterous.
SCOTUS is shameless too, unfortunately.
Quite smart of the Dems to use the judiciary to slow down the opposition.
Another childless 80 something doing her damnedest to hurt America.
What was the finding in the TRO order regarding “irreparable harm”?
Pray for a reboot of the planet. We seem incapable (or at a minimum unwilling) to punish those who are destroying the country on purpose.
Wouldn’t a legal citizen have to be prevented from voting before there would be standing? Didn’t Trump try to prevent voter fraud before the 2020 election only to be told he didn’t have standing because he didn’t suffered a loss?
Treason.
Will Congre$$ and the Supreme Clowns of the US ever earn their pay and stop the Judicial Branch takeover of the Executive Branch before it’s too late?
But I have to prove citizenship to get a passport and real ID.
Makes no sense.
The Democrats are taking Trump and the American people to the cleaners. Big time. Worse than his first term. Wake the hell up people. Declaration of a national emergency. Invasion. Just look at all the military-aged Hispanics walking around in battle-ready condition. Martial law. Suspension of habeas corpus. Get the illegals the hell out. Gags the judges. Then we won’t have to worry about anyone objecting to proving citizenship at the polls anymore.
First clue: woman with a hypenated last name.
