SCOTUS UPHOLDS PRESIDENT’S TRAVEL BAN

DC-

A five-justice majority of the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the latest iteration of President Donald Trump’s travel sanctions Tuesday.

Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the Court’s opinion, joined by Justices Anthony Kennedy, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Neil Gorsuch.

“The president has lawfully exercised the broad discretion granted to him under [federal law],” Roberts wrote.

Speaking moments after the Court issued its decision, Trump said the ruling vindicates his immigration and national security priorities.

  1. 5 Justices following the Constitution and the rule of law.
    4 Social Justice Bullies following gut feelings and personal political opinions.

    So #NeverTrumpers, explain again how Hillary winning was going to be better for the country?

    This hassle should never have happened in the first place. My understanding of the Constitution and U.S. Code is that a president can ban anybody he wants for any reason, or even NO reason, at all. A president could legally declare “No more Jews” and that would be that. That would be an abhorrent and a slam-dunk impeachable act, but it would be legal.

  5. what is scary is that the court hangs by a thread … reading the dissents is chilling in that all they cite are out-of-context statements by Trump about muzzies … reasoning as bad as the MSM
    & if the dems get ahold of congress this year we won’t see any Trump judges get through

    time to wake up!
