What the h3ll is he talking about?

[T.B. Yoits]

Strip any courthouse protection from the judge. Let Democrats set up a “occupied zone” right outside the front door.

[9YearLurker]

San Fran judge. No surprise at all.

[Fungi]

“We live in response to a monarchy,” A JUDICIAL monarchy you idiot judge.

[montag813]

This is Stephen Breyer’s brother, btw.

[butlerweave]

Activists make very bad judges

[jacknhoo]

Appears like the judge has delusions of grandeur and believes he is a monarch.

[Ben Dover]

“In the lengthy hearing, Breyer directed most of his questioning to the Trump administration, which has cited Title 10 of the U.S. Code to justify the takeover of the National Guard. But that provision, the judge noted, requires that orders from the president “shall be issued through the governors of the States.””

Kennedy didn’t get the memo when dealing with George Wallace.

Breyer was nominated by President Bill Clinton

Another democrat who had no problem with the 101st Airborne herding Americans at bayonet point in Little Rock.

[PubliusMM]

Apparently a Clinton appointee...’nuff said.

[9YearLurker]

Considering that Trump today argued for a special carve-out for hotels (and farmers) employing illegals, maybe they have a bit of a point.

[tumblindice]

You mean, something like “work visas”? Yeah, maybe pass a law ...

[tumblindice]

Hold on. Like firearms, there’s already a law!
U.S. work visas allow foreigners to legally work in the United States. Some require sponsorship from a U.S. employer, while others, like EB-1, EB-2, and EB-5, do not. Many work visas are temporary, while others, like employment-based immigrant visas, can lead to permanent residency.

[9YearLurker]

That’s amnesty, pal.

[RoosterRedux]

The Left and the Right in the U.S. had to eventually come to blows. That's why Trump got elected. Trump saw it. American voters saw it.

The Democrats have gone bat guano insane. We can all see that.

They are like zombies. We don't know what kills them or how they die...but either they die or we do.

[Alas Babylon!]

Wait...

Work visas are already allowed under the law. Trump was specific to them, not some new carveout.

[Lurker]

Stuff it, you joke of a judge.

Then stuff it again.

[ifinnegan]

This is a tell.

Judge is using orchestrated narrative.

No kings bs.

It’s planned and orchestrated.

[tumblindice]

He’s demonstrated clearly hiss political bias and partiality.
Any judge with a scintilla of integrity would recuse himself.
