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.

Trump, as we can see in the desperation on the left, must be impeached or forced to resign before he can permanently destroy their world with another one to three SC picks.

It figures. We finally get a President who may actually do the country some good and here come the judicial usurpers to louse things up.

Trump is William Wallace and the Congress are the nobles on the battlefield who turn and leave when the battle is joined. The King says he doubled their land and titles and our nobles turn just as easily.

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?

I would say yes.

I believe there is almost as much Trump Derangement Syndrome among the RINO Never Trumpers as among democrats.
They have just been a little less overt about it.

I sense a certain amount of resentment over a rank outsider coming in and winning the top prize.

Career politicians on both sides have the attitude that running the government is the pronince of the insiders.

After all - in their minds they are the professionals.
What could an outsider possibly know about governing?

So they predict Trump will fail and then do whatever they can to make their prediction come true.

This judge is NOT a Republican. Although he was appointed by Bush II, it was a blue sheet appointment engineered by state of Washington uber-leftist senator Patty Murray.

Is it true that Trump can, with impunity, just reduce the total number of immigrants allowed into the country during this fiscal year? If so, he could bring the maximum down to the current level, and we’re done, aren’t we?
