I'm sure you would equally defend a judge that said the 1st amendment is null and void until SCOTUS says otherwise?

SCOTUS has already ruled on said issue when Arizona was trying to enhance immigration laws in 2010 when the federal government refused.



Why not educate yourself on the issue?

Partisanship is a bad shade on you.

The Supreme Court wouldn't make a decision until the fall, what would be the point since this was supposed to be a temporary ban until they can "figure it out". The ban was never to be permanent.

People are aware it is, but using it the way he did in a attempt to demean them is why its bad. Tis a tad subtle, but it is the underlying issue people are taking with it.

So? Doesn't change the fact that our country works this way. IE courts have a say.

The court decision should be moot by the fall, there is nothing to prevent him from changing and putting his "extreme vetting procedures" in place. The court case was involving a ban, it will be unnecessary come fall.

Who exactly is arguing the courts shouldn't exist?

Was Obama arguing the courts should have a say after citizen united?

The ignorance of this bumpkin White trash Attorney General is astonishing. Hawaii has been a state since 1959 and was a territory before that since 1898.

He simply stuck so far back in time that he doesn't even know that the US annexed Hawaii under the Newlands Resolution? I thought he was merely stuck in the 1950s ... it looks like he is actually stuck in the 1860s!
Regardless, Hawaii is still an island thousands of miles away. It's amazing that a judge sitting there could block the POTUS Executive Orders that affect the whole country.
Bumpkin White Trash? Well, with that I can't argue...

It may never get to the supreme court, even the looney 9th circuit could very well rule the EO legal.

In the end, the EO will be ruled legal, there is no argument against it, and there are precedents in the courts affirming the president has such power.

The first judge in MA had is right when he stopped the stay, because it had no chance when it got to court.

Hawaii never rebelled against the federal government nor did it take up arms against the federal government, making it more American than Sessions' own state

It's only amazing if you're a biased simpleton who thinks that geographic proximity makes some places more of a state than others.

Maybe we should redraw the electoral map based on this idea - redistribute the votes so those near DC get, say, twice as much say per person as those in the midwest or the south.
