Could be an attack he’s trying to disrupt.

“In fact, this suspicion was first mused by Kevin Drum of Mother Jones.”

Uh oh, this one has a working brain cell. A transcendent genius among his kind.

[drewh]

the GROWNUPS are in charge now!

[pugmama]

This is an attempt to get slime Bannon. MSM really hate him because they know he has them figured out.

It is fairly unprecedented for a non-elected official to have such sway over the president and policy-making

Stopped reading right there.

It is fairly unprecedented for a non-elected official to have such sway over the president and policy-making, but the fact that Steve Bannon personally overruled Homeland Security and their legal interpretation of the order is a testament to his influence over Trump.

He doesn't have sway over Trump.

Likely he just presented a logical, well thought out reason why green card holders should be included and presented it to Trump and Trump saw the wisdom in it.

That doesn't mean he has any influence in policy making. I'm sure if Trump had disagreed, then he would have done it and nobody would ever know it had been presented to him.

Bannon is on National Security Council now.

[ronnie raygun]

AND ANDREW IS SMILING!

[Eagles6]

It's unprecedented for an unelected official"?

Ha Ha! #Fake News!

Valerie Jarrett aka "The Lizard Queen" anyone?

[allendale]

Bannon without question is the key man in the Trump Administration. He knows how to fight and win.

[goodnesswins]

What BS...what position was she EVER elected to...huh...MSM Idiots?

[MortMan]

Steve Bannon ignoring the advice of Homeland Security legal analysts and moving to include green cards has been speculated to either be a blunder due to inexperience or a carefully crafted publicity move. Bannon and the Trump team have proven to be experts at controlling the narrative in the media, the same media that they refer to as “the opposition party.”

Or, it could be a carefully crafted part of the strategy to protect America against the enemy let in on green cards as a result of bribery during the Obama regime.

Facts can be inconvenient things.

LOL! You mean the ‘co president’ Valjar...

[goodnesswins]

She = Val Jar

[gibsonguy]

I hate to say it but it was big mistake. They should have listened to the DHS lawyers. Now it looks like a big cluster bleep. It really took the wind out of the sails. It just gave the Rats too much ammo. Do it yes, but after Sessions is seated and give notice so NOBODY is already in an inbound airplane.

Always trust Mother Jones when it comes to national security.

I live in Middle America, and worked on the campaign; they will NOT turn on Trump or his administration, IMO.

[Nita Nupress]

<<< All the protests, the court judgments, the press coverage: this is something that will make middle America understand just what Trump is really all about. And once they figure it out, they’ll turn on him.” >>>

LOL! Sound familiar?

“Oh, NOW he’s toast. He crossed the line now. He’ll be the laughing stock soon. Wait for it... “

“O.K., THAT will cost him. He’ll be dropping out of the race within a week, you watch. He’s clearly an amateur. “

Blah, blah, blah...

Glad to see this. It is hard to campaign on supporting legal over illegal immigrants and then detain permanent residents at the airport.

Why are they backtracking then ?

White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus on Sunday said the president’s executive order barring refugees and people from seven majority-Muslim nations does not affect green card holders.

“We didn’t overrule the Department of Homeland Security, as far as green card holders moving forward, it doesn’t affect them,” Priebus said on NBC’s “Meet The Press.”
