| Judge Blocks Trump Travel Ban |
| 2017-02-04 |
| The State Department reversed visa cancellations for foreigners Saturday after a federal judge's ruling temporarily lifted a ban on travel to the U.S. from certain countries. The War on Trump continues. The ruling triggered confusion in airports around the world as airlines began boarding flights bound for America and federal lawyers took steps to reinstate the ban. Now thousands shall not be inconvenienced, but millions feel threatened. The White House said it would try to get a court to reinstate the ban that prompted the State Department to cancel visas for 60,000 or more people from the affected countries, causing widespread confusion at airports when some travelers were detained and others sent back. |

| #2 Saw a pic of the judge at another site; the fluorescent green bowtie he wears as he sits on the bench should tell you all you need to know about this guy. |

| #1 This ruling is an outlier. 2 very liberal judges have already help most of the EO to be lawful, which it is. The problem is that activists are very good at selecting the right judge to get a TRO, even though you aren't supposed to be able to. I suspect that even the left wing 9th Circus will overturn. Looking at the larger picture, 3 Supreme Court justices are getting on in years: Ginsburg = 83, Kennedy = 80 and Breyer is 78. Should Trump win a second term, he has a pretty good shot at replacing all three. Thomas (68) might even decide to retire during a Trump presidency. Assuming a second term, and that Trump continues to do the right thing in his appointments, many of us on this board could live the rest of our lives knowing nothing but a conservative court. |
