Vaeliorin Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Because Trump has been referring the the judges as "so-called judges" on Twitter, as I understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromnir Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) the doj pretty much dared the court to deny the appeal. were kinda akin to the following doj were arguing separation o' powers and deference to the President. "Despite the district court’s and our own repeated invitations to explain the urgent need for the Executive Order to be placed immediately into effect, the Government submitted no evidence to rebut the States’ argument that the district court’s order merely returned the nation temporarily to the position it has occupied for many previous years. The Government has pointed to no evidence that any alien from any of the countries named in the Order has perpetrated a terrorist attack in the United States. Rather than present evidence to explain the need for the Executive Order, the Government has taken the position that we must not review its decision at all. "We disagree" am not surprised by the ruling. HA!

Calax Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 This may be a long 4 years. I think it'll be a long period but shorter than 4 years. I'm willing to bet that Trump screws up enough politically that he's either forced to abdicate or is impeached and removed from power in disgrace because he pushed the entire establishment in a bad way.

Wrath of Dagon Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 It's the court that acted unconstitutionally in this case. It's not for them to determine whether there's a security threat or not, that's the President's job. Both the Constitution and the law are crystal clear on this. 1 "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity."

Wrath of Dagon Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) @Hurlshot Trump has the executive power, the judges just stole it from him, has nothing to do with who is more knowledgeable. The judges are not objective, it's been obvious for a long time that liberal judges simply decide for whatever they'd like the outcome to be, the hell with the law. Was just about to post this anyway, explains one reason why this decision is so stupid and dangerous: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2017/02/09/the-9th-circuits-dangerous-and-unprecedented-use-of-campaign-statements-to-block-presidential-policy/?utm_term=.3ed5dd6ad286 Edit: I think they concluded that the government didn't do a proper job of justifying such an emergency measure, or at least that's what the news here summarized for me. Anyway, might be interesting reading to some - http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2017/02/09/17-35105.pdf They don't have to justify it, we have separation of powers, the President doesn't need to have his decisions approved by the court. All the court can rule on is whether the order is legal or not, there's no requirement anywhere for the President to prove that there's a real threat.

No. As Gromnir intimated the only thing at issue here is if the injunction will be lifted before the whole order is litigated. The only standard the judges have to apply is if the case to overturn is likely to succeed on it's merits. In other words is there a fair chance the temporary moratorium will be overturned. They decided there was so the injunction is upheld. They did not make a decision on whether the Executive has the authority to do what it did. That will come later. 2 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath of Dagon Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Then how do they know the case is likely to succeed on its merits? It's quite obvious the case has no merit.
