Discussion: Federal Judge In L.A. Issues Restraining Order Against Trump Travel Ban

Thank you Judge André Birotte Jr., we will need many more people like you in the days to come.

In the meantime, for what it’s worth, we have your back in any way we can.

Did they remove the Judicial Branch from the White House website again?

President Bannon has forgotten that international travel into the USA largely occurs in big cities where the rule of law still is in force. Judges in these places will not be afraid to apply the law. Vice-President Trump? Not sure what he thinks, he’s not in charge.

I Love LA and its judges…

That sound pretty unequivocal, with no wiggle room for DHS to ignore the order. If the shenanigans continue, with green card holders being forced to give up their cards or people being pulled aside and harassed, we will be looking at US Marshals being sent into the airports to enforce this order. Stuff will get really serious at that point.

President Bannon probably isn’t aware that LA has an international airport, so he figures no big deal…

That will be very interesting - I suspect that there are a fair number of Trumpists fully embedded in the U.S. Marshals Service, just as there are many in the CBP. This is the stuff of which Constitutional crises are made.

All of this fighting is working. Keep standing up for what’s right and we’ll defeat this fascist regime.

Not to worry. The Administration is already interviewing new judges. This one seems suitable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOLdLdSwe2A

One can’t help but wonder when the time is going to come when people simply refuse to do what this man wants.

It’s looking like it’s going to be sooner, rather than later. Except in Congress, of course.

WTF? There has to be at least one other GOP Senator who received a secular education. Please? Anyone?

DeVos nomination stands at 50-50

It could come down to Vice President Mike Pence, in what would be a history-making confirmation vote.

More good news! Trump is like a child, and like all children, they need boundaries set for them.
