Presidential Authority: The court cited the 2018 Supreme Court decision in Trump v. Hawaii, affirming that the President has broad power under federal law (8 U.S.C. § 1182(f)) to deny entry to foreigners if their entry is deemed "detrimental to the interests of the United States." Indefinite Suspension: The panel concluded that this authority allows for an indefinite halt to refugee admissions, reversing the lower court's finding that the order "nullified" congressional intent.
Non-Reviewable Policy: Writing for the panel, Senior U.S. Circuit Judge Jay Bybee stated that whether the suspension reflects "prudent policy" is not a question for the court, despite the "enormous practical implications" for over 100,000 vetted refugees waiting for admission.
The case is Pacito v. Trump, Rubio et al
This is a big “duh”. Of course he has the authority. If he feels, which he does, that they’re a threat to Americans. Geez
Absolutely!
U.S. Circuit Judge Kenneth Lee, a Trump appointee, and panel member wrote:
“District courts cannot stand athwart, yelling ‘stop’ just because they genuinely believe they are the last refuge against policies that they deem to be deeply unwise,” he wrote.
Can Trump & Rubio pick & choose who is accepted?
Democrats will scream racism, xenophobia, other -isms.
“...whether the suspension reflects “prudent policy” is not a question for the court...”
A federal judge that knows how to “stay in his lane”? What’s the world coming to?
How about none?
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Exactly
Can Trump & Rubio pick & choose who is accepted?
Yes. The President and his Secretary of DHS can make those decisions as per the power given to the President by Congress.
There is nothing in the U.S. Constitution that gives foreigners the right to jump on an airplane and fly to New York and demand to be funded for life if they are afraid of their cowardly shadow.
IMMIGRATION MORATORIUM NOW.
Critical point that too many on both sides don't always seem to understand. It's not the proper role of the courts to determine whether a policy is good or bad.
9th Circuit, CA, decision
In the summary of the ruling, the majority appears to adopt what SAF and many others have long argued in accordance with Heller: commonality alone grants Second Amendment protection.
"Because these magazines are arms in common and ubiquitous use by law-abiding citizens across this country, we agree with Benson and the United States that the District’s outright ban. on them violates the Second Amendment."
