Hawaii Judge Puts Trump’s Refugee Order On Hold Indefinitely

[the_ad id=”90513″]

The people elected President Trump because he promised to enact these very policies. How is it that some autocratic leftwing judge in Hawaii can undermine the will of the American people and issue a nationwide halt to the President’s urgently needed immigration order?

The job of a judge is to enforce the law (whether he likes it or not). It is not to make law, legislate or be an activist from the bench. Our enemies will exploit the actions of the enemies among us who care nothing of our security and only of their failed ideology.

This is who and what the left is. They refuse to accept plurality or the results of a fair and free election. They impose their will by edict. They have destroyed this country, and we must fight with everything we have to get it back.

“Hawaii Judge Puts Trump’s Refugee Order On Hold Indefinitely,” by Kevin Daley, Daily Caller, March 30, 2017:

A federal judge in Hawaii has indefinitely barred enforcement of President Donald Trump’s executive order on refugee and migrant entry, pending a full review of the order’s legality by the courts.

U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson of the District of Hawaii issued the order late Wednesday. Watson issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) earlier this month on March 15, barring the directive’s enforcement pending further proceedings. However, TROs are usually short-term orders that expire after several weeks. Watson issued a permanent injunction on Wednesday, which simply ensures Trump’s order will remain enjoined while the court’s assess it on the merits.

Watson’s decision did not come as a surprise — the best shot lawyers from the Department of Justice seemed to have was to convince Watson to narrow the scope of his order, instead of urging him to scrap it all together. Still, they argued during a hearing Wednesday that Hawaii had failed to show it would suffer irreparable harm without a permanent injunction, and that the order was a lawful exercise of presidential power.

The court remained unconvinced of the government’s arguments, and reiterated assertions made in its original order of Mar. 15. Watson explained he believed Trump’s order could violate the First Amendment’s establishment clause, as comments made during the general election campaign by Trump and his surrogates could leave much of the country with the impression the order’s intent is to disparage Islam.

“Where the ‘historical context and ‘the specific sequence of events leading up to” the adoption of the challenged Executive Order are as full of religious animus, invective, and obvious pretext as is the record here, it is no wonder that the Government urges the Court to altogether ignore that history and context,” Watson wrote. “The Court, however, declines to do so. The Court will not crawl into a corner, pull the shutters closed, and pretend it has not seen what it has seen.”…

Exactly right on this. I am getting so tired of the continual and daily attacks on Trump. Every. Single. Day. From CNN and MSNBC.

I’m getting more tired of the Rs sitting on their a$$es doing nothing to give us free market health care, build the wall, stop refugees, shut down Cuck Schumer, etc.

.

Ann Coulter health care plan is PERFECT:

STEP 1: Congress doesn’t repeal Obamacare! Instead, Congress passes a law, pursuant to its constitutional power to regulate interstate commerce, that says: “In America, it shall be legal to sell health insurance on the free market. This law supersedes all other laws, taxes, mandates, coverage requirements, regulations or prohibitions, state or federal.”

She makes an outstanding case for this plan in Breitbart:

You are right, Trump is getting little help from a treacherous Republican establishment. They are not just spineless – although this applies to a number – like John McCain they are treacherous and serving their own personal interests. What Rand Paul said of McCain is right on. His nose is out of joint over conflicts with Trump and he’s had “four decades” of being a first rate fool. Trump has got to find a way of shutting down this squirt of a judge in Hawaii and then, hopefully, bad fortune will befall this judge in a parking lot where he gets beaten to a pulp and spends time in hospital to contemplate his poor wisdom. What the devil kind of justice system allows some disgusting fool judge of Hawaii to paralyze a president’s executive orders? Why the devil did the Republicans not use this stunt on Obama, the executive orders ‘queen’ of all time. For heaven’s sake shut down Obama and Clinton. It’s pathetic watching this charade! Putin must be laughing at such impotence.

Because the Republican party are, for the most part, a bunch of eunuchs who don’t have the stones to do anything about it. This judge should be impeached immediately, but the subject won’t even be discussed by the RINO cowards in Congress, much less carried out.

Especially since the president has constitutional and United States Code power to control immigration? Why haven’t a couple of U.S. Marshalls shown up at this anti-American POS home and taken a long nighttime drive?
Do like Lincoln and deport these anti-American activists.

When liberals have majorities in congress and/or the executive branch, they never seem to get stymied like this. Truth is, half or more of the republicans are really on the other side.

Agree 100%. And tell the rapefugees where the judge lives so they can thank him the sharia way. Trump team and the churches should be able to send a couple thousand to Hawaii within a couple of days.

It’s not specific to all Muslims or Trump would have banned ALL ISLAMIC MAJORITY COUNTRIES and ALL ISLAMIC PERSONS.
Not just the really problematic ones.
Therefore no, it is not RACE or GROUP specific to Muslims, as much as they like to cry hate over everything.

I agree. This country has way to many activist judges legislating from the bench. In fact, none of the major social upheaval of the 20th Century were able to win at the ballot box so, instead, the liberals turned to the courts for such things as abortion, affirmative action, busing, integration, immigration, etc., all forced down our throats by liberal activist judges.

This will be an easier trip through the courts this time around. Besides the executive authority vested in Trump by public law known as 8 US Code, Section 1182 entitled “Inadmissible Aliens”, he now has AG Jeff Sessions confirmed and in place to fight his legal challenges for him instead of that Obhammud holdover Sally Yates who refused to do her job on the first Executive Order.

Defund Hawaii. Moreover, as the judge is a federal judge, defund him. No more money, but he still has to work. Let’s see who folds first.

So obviously it is time for the Trump administration to begin the battle to delist Islam as a religion, and procure a legal determination that it is an insidious political ideology disguised as a religion. Or at least, that due to its dual nature, it may be treated as an insidious political ideology in any situation where that becomes the dominant issue.

I suggest that all those refugees seeking entry into the USA be sent directly to Hawaii. Is there any reason why this could not be done?

This idiot of a judge should be permanently removed along with the other imbeciles who care more for the illegals and noncitizens then the safety and well being of the people they are sworn to protect and serve. I have no respect for the judges who abuse their powers to forward Anti-American rhetoric. Obama never chose candidates who were qualified only those who followed his sick ideology.
