9 Circus will likely rule against Trump.

Case is headed to the SCOTUS.

Who gives a damn, it’s a preventative measure and it’s CONSTITUTIONALLY FALLS ON THE PRESIDENT, NOT A JUDGE.

We listened to the whole thing and we could not really tell how they will rule on this matter.

and insisted that it is unconstitutional

Absurd on its face as they (the Federal courts) have repeatedly insisted that immigration is the sole responsibility of the Federal government...meaning laws passed by the Congress and implemented by the Executive.

I was stunned at the incompetence of the Justice Department lawyer. He was barely coherent. I could have done better by just listening to Laura Ingraham and Judge Neapolitano, and I am not a lawyer. He only needed to hit about five points while quoting the law.

It’s a rather straight forward issue.

The 9th either smacks down Robart, or the Supreme Court will 8-0.

This case will move forward to the SCOTUS for ruling. SCOTUS will support POTUS Trump for obvious reasons!!!

“”Friedland asked if the government had connected any immigrants from the seven countries to terrorism.””

How many does he want? One, two, five, ten or 100? I’m sure he’s convinced himself that they are all good family men and have only the desire to have peace and good will in the world among all people, secure a good life for their families blah blah blah. Our security shouldn’t be at the whim of what or whether or not foreign workers are allowed back into the country to work..

From what I could hear on FOX at 6 pm, the government lawyer had to be one of the weakest they could find in the DOJ. They haven’t had time to put in place any new ones and won’t until Senator Sessions is confirmed so who did they get?

I can’t remember where I heard the number and countries read off today but terrorist acts here in our country were named - states/number of terrorists and countries of origin. I watched so much, I only recall Somalia at this point... Is this what is supposed to be happening? Get us so confused we don’t even know our own names or do we have to sit and take notes?

Both sides were slapped with hard questions and interruptions. On balance, neither side had an advantage. The states got on a mandamus tangent which was quickly attacked by the Court. Standing was a big issue. Also, one judge pointed out that it appeared that all Moslems weren’t targeted by the EO. Also how could those with no direct connections with the USA have rights here? One judge questioned that.

Just on its face, it’s a toss up.

Trump wins EITHER WAY - America not necessarily. If the courts uphold the ban, then Trump gets to keep the animals outside our borders. If the courts decide to play Executive, then Trump is INNOCULATED against any terror attack that can be remotely related to his ban being overturned and ALL of the blame lies with Democrats and Judges.

Rough on Americans to have to go through another attack, but Trump wins and wins big...which, I guess, means that America does win out in the end, also.

“”from seven predominantly Muslim nations””

As another article a few days ago read - that’s because they’ve killed off everyone else in the country!! Including other muslims!

What’s the ability of the states to sue got to do with allowing the EO to stand? As long as it’s being held up by the courts no one is being denied entry so there’s nothing to sue about.

Dear Judge:

A) Let them move into YOUR neighborhood.
B) Let yourself be personally liable for any damages.

So a district court judge of any state can thwart any President on matters of national security...right.

If the 9th Circuit rules against Trump on this then the congress (republican controlled) should specifically REMOVE from the federal courts the jurisdiction to rule on immigration issues (the Constitution provides for this except for the Supreme Court) and then Trump should re-issue the proclamation -it’s a proclamation rather than an EO- banning immigration from the same terrorist countries.
