A Seattle federal district court has issued a preliminary injunction on President Trump's controversial immigration executive order, which temporarily banned most immigration from seven predominantly Muslim countries and also shut down the refugee program for 120 days.
The injunction, by Judge James Robart, effectively extends the temporary restraining order he issued earlier this month into an indefinite nationwide block of Trump's immigration order.

Jeff Sessions should have KING ROBART ARRESTED FOR SEDITION/TREASON.
How many divisions does the 9th circuit have?
You are right but they should have seated Gorsuch YESTERDAY!! Nuke the bastards. If we all know the leftist whores will block this man— NUKE NOW!! I see dilly dally!!
Now that Barack Obama has gone back to being a street thug Judge Robart seems to think he is America’s new King.
A lot of enemy islamists in there, especially.
Yep. They are in bed with the companies and corporations which want all the cheap illegal labor they can get. Trent Lott has said as much, now that he’s out of Congress he pulls no punches in admitting what the real agenda is.
It is very telling to me that the only plank of the GOP platform which they’ve managed to stand on is the one against union power. I oppose unions too, but I imagine for a different reason than they did-I oppose the union’s support, including enforced support by the rank-and-file, of the ‘rat party and the left. The GOP opposed it because their cronies in in big business want the cheap illegal immigrant labor.
Because it is almost certain that the Supreme court would either go 3 to 5 against President Trump or 4 to 4 to let the lower court ruling stand.
That's why the Gorsuch nomination has become more urgent and important.
And that's why democrats will do everything they possibly can to kill the nomination in order to hand Trump a permanent defeat on the ban.
They are more interested in winning a olitical battle than in National Security.

That’s fine but he doesn’t have the last word
Or north of the Snohomish County line.
The injunction is simply an exension of the original stay and has not changed anything.
they can’t do anything.
It’s just that I Think Trump is being hamstrung by the cries of dictator! and is worried that taking such an action would feed that narrative even more.
But the truth of the matter is, the courts have as much right to insert themselves into matters of national security as the president has to take a court case on rule on it. Which is to say, NONE.
Have the events surrounding Flynn now emboldened the Never Trump Republicans to join forces with the Democrats to defeat Gorsuch, even if the nuclear option is used? Blood is in the water.
No he’s just waiting for his SC justice takes his seat....smart move...hit them when they’re not looking!
That is a grave ruling
Oh, okay, thank you, El Presidente Robarto, sir!
Ugh, the Republicans should have approved that SC picks within 24 hours. WTH are they doing? It wont be long before we start hearing “the midterms” are just around the corner and nothing else can be done before then for risk of losing our majorities !
America is as spoiled on cheap labor as Congress is to payoffs from lobby reps.
