These judges on the 9th Circuit Court should be removed from the bench and put in a concentration camp!
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the retarded ruling against President Trump’s lawful and Constitutional temporary travel ban on seven majority-Moslem nations. While the ruling is insane by any practical standards, this was not a surprise. This federal appeals court based out of San Francisco is well-known for all sorts of crazy rulings that have ultimately been overturned by the Supreme Court.
A federal appeals court Thursday refused to let President Trump reinstitute a temporary ban on travelers from seven majority-Muslim nations, ruling that the president’s order violates the due process rights of people affected by the ban.
The quick decision from a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit could lead to a showdown at the Supreme Court, unless the administration agrees to dial back the travel ban or try its case before a federal judge in Seattle who ordered it stopped last week.
“Although courts owe considerable deference to the President’s policy determinations with respect to immigration and national security, it is beyond question that the federal judiciary retains the authority to adjudicate constitutional challenges to executive action,” the judge wrote in their opinion.
The ban, announced Jan. 27, temporarily barred citizens of Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen for 90 days, all refugees for 120 days, and Syrian citizens indefinitely. It led to chaos at U.S. and international airports as tens of thousands of visa holders were blocked from entering the country or detained after arriving in the U.S.
There is no disputing that the President has the authority to determine what foreigners can and cannot enter the country. This type of nonsense from the judiciary is not going to stand. They’re legislating from the bench instead of interpreting the law as written.
Trump has already declared that he’s going to fight the ruling in court. Which court this will go to next remains to be seen. He has different options.
SEE YOU IN COURT, THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!

Trump’s political enemies are going to fight his agenda by filing endless numbers of lawsuits. There’s no question that this will be their main strategy. The good news about this is that the more lawsuits they file the more foolish they’ll look. Trump will be able to use this type of overreaching judicial obstructionism stemming from the lawsuits as a potentially powerful political weapon. He could even use their obstructionism to justify limiting the power of these courts. Judicial overreach has been a major problem for quite awhile. Pat Buchanan has written a piece going into this further.
We’ll see where this goes but a war between Trump and the judiciary might not be a bad thing in the long term.
