Supreme Court Takes Historic Case on Trump Travel Ban

Breitbart; WASHINGTON, DC – The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday granted review in the legal challenge to President Donald Trump’s permanent policy restricting entry into the United States from the residents of eight terror-prone nations, in what will be a historic case on presidential authority, national security, the role of the courts in immigration, and the Constitution’s guarantee of religious liberty.

This travel policy has gone through three versions since President Trump was sworn into office, and the Supreme Court’s decision in the case they accepted Friday should permanently settle all legal challenges to his authority on this subject.

Congress delegated broad authority to the president in 8 U.S.C. § 1182(f), a provision in federal law which provides:

Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.

One week after being inaugurated, President Trump invoked that authority on January 27, 2017, to issue Executive Order 13769, establishing a temporary ban on immigration from certain terror-prone nations while the new administration developed “extreme vetting” measures to ensure that dangerous people were not entering the country.  read more

  1. The president under the constitution have the right to protect the American citizens from the criminals Muslim. And if the Muslim don’t like it well go home to your shit hole in a camel 🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪🐪

  2. The left has no choice but to challenge the law even though they know what it says. When you have nothing to lose, you keep trying and appealing everything. Hey, you might get lucky, and it’s not their money, it’s yours.

  3. Democrats only have problems with laws when Republicans use them. This law has been used by both parties six times in our history. Three times by Democrats Clinton, Carter and Obama.

  4. I really do wish that we would stop ALL immigration for a while until we have our house in order. It seems to me the pinnacle of foolishness to be bringing in new people who have not been vetted.
