President Trump can deploy federal troops to restore order in Portland, Oregon, allowing the deportations to continue. That was the preliminary finding this week by the nation’s most liberal appellate division, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of...
The three-judge panel reversed a district court judge who thwarted the military operation at the beginning of the month. Liberal pundits downplay the significance of this order by pointing out that the panel was stacked with two of Mr. Trump’s appointees.

How long before they find an illegal alien that the ‘rats have appointed as a judge in some whacko democrat state?
Remember - you read it here first!
Fill in the blanks:
Whereas the laws of the United States have been for some time past and now are opposed and the execution thereof obstructed in the States of [….] by combinations too powerful to be suppressed by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings or by the powers vested in the marshals by law:
Now, therefore, I, […..]President of the United States, in virtue of the power in me vested by the Constitution and the laws, have thought fit to call forth, and hereby do call forth, the militia of the several States of the Union to the aggregate number of 75,000 in order to suppress said combinations and to cause the laws to be duly executed.
The details for this object will be immediately communicated to the State authorities through the War Department.
these judges are not just trying to tell the President how to do his job: they’re trying to run the entire Executive Branch ...
