Supreme Court Upholds Trump’s Travel Ban
The Supreme Court, ladies and gentlemen, has upheld Trump’s travel ban and has reinstated it. To me, this is an example of how silly and stupid we have been since Trump was — not us. There has been no question that Trump was totally constitutionally within his rights to issue this travel ban.
An act of Congress that we read to you many times explicitly granted to Trump the official constitutional powers to do exactly what he did and more if he wanted to in his travel ban. It was stayed by all these lower courts and then upheld by the U.S. Ninth Circuit. And it was only a matter of time before it got to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court reinstated it and said they’re gonna hear arguments in October.
It's a bitch when laws of the land are actually upheld by the "HIGH" court...… pissing on the "LIBERAL" laden courts.
'This 'man' was not elected to tiptoe around your feelings
He was elected to get the job done.'
On that stupid ass rump meme
What job would that be?
Making America Great Again, of course....
And yet you comment anyway ?
The usual suspects will be all atwitter over this.
I think I will enjoy the next few days of massive whining!
And Kleenex!
Dammit I knew I should have bought stock in butt hurt cream two years ago.
Look how much you would have saved if you did own stock.
Saved, hell. I would be rich. You guys buy that shit by the case.
And to think the court is not yet done. That decision about whether government workers can be compelled to pay union dues whether they want to join or not is still out there. It was 4-4 last time after Scalia passed away.
We all knew how it would go in the end! All the law professors from Johnathan Turley to Alan Dershowitz said the SCOTUS would have to back Trump on what it says in the Coinstitution. All those lower court activist judges really thought they could prevail with their nonsense about th President's intent
Celebration 🎉 🎊! Victory!
Obama did what Trump did. Where's the REAL BEEF ?
Another Trump WIN !
Victory Dinner to be held at the "Red Hen" !
Would like to see them ask a president to leave. Women and children are easy targets for the spineless.
They should do that! Great idea 💡!
Hmmm...how long before the liberals come to eat their giant helping of crow?
When SCOTUS slams them with many more losses.
Oh, in about 4 and a half months
RED WAVE! RED WAVE! RED WAVE!
They'll hide now. They are only good at ganging up on women in restaurants & movie theatres
Probably explains why the pussy hats are so popular with them!
Pussy hats, hoodies and masks
I got a great seed up by a woman calling them all out on that today.
Man, oh man, what ever shall they do now?
Texas election map largely upheld, California law regarding anti-abortion clinics struck down, Trump's travel ban upheld.
There will much wailing and gnashing of teeth today!
Maxine Waters......Take us AWAY !
Maxine Waters is a disgrace, and the idiotic voters who keep reelecting that trash are displaying an AMAZING amount of stupidity.
That's the "Left" for ya.
I hear "Tolerance" is their mainstay. Just haven't seen it yet.
They are extremely tolerant--just as long as you think exactly like them!
"One of Us....One of Us....One of Us !"
Nope, they exhibit an amazing amount of greed. Incumbents get re-elected not so much of what laws they pass or how they campaign; but for how much money they bring to their district or state from the Federal level. Just look at the late, not so great, John Murtha from PA.
Two years later and Trump hasn't figured out "what the hell is going on" yet. And his extreme vetting plan obviously never happened, since he said the travel ban would end once he got his "extreme vetting " into place. That was a year and a half ago. Are they on snail's time over there in the White House?
Gee, whatever happened to all the whining about some mythical "Muslim ban"?
And how Texas voter maps would be struck down?
And the California law placing restrictions on anti-abortion clinics?
W-a-h, w-a-h.
Sure he did. That's why the "Travel Ban" is back in place. He knew, and the "SUPREME" court said GO !
Well the activist judges put all that on hold, so now we make em' all wait another year and a half and maybe add to the list!
The TDS crowd surely will loose it again.
Why do they not want to protect their own country? Because Trump implemented the ban...
I agree, with one small correction.
The TDS crowd never HAD it to lose!
LOL
That is ALMOST as good as the election night pictures of Democrats wandering aimlessly about, all hope gone, tears streaming, wondering how Abuela blew the election!
But my all-time favorite HAS to be the freaking idiots and their little "Screaming at the Sky" day!
You found a picture of John?
Because they hate it.
Sanity wins.
And the Constitution!!!
God Bless Trump! God Bless the SCOTUS!
The left is going to learn what the word "sovereignty" means no matter how long it takes.
Amen brother!
The nutcases will start protesting at airports again, where American citizens almost have to get buck naked to just board a plane in their own country.
Not as quickly as they did before when the Obama holdovers were still in government. That time the protesters & the ACLU lawyers were at the airport before security agents even got their orders
A lot of salt on social media coming from the many on the left over this... people calling for violence. The escalation continues. Even when the highest court rules they refuse to follow laws....
now im not saying they aren't allowed to be outraged... I just find it funny the same group that likes saying things like "when SCOTUS rules the second doesn't cover anything but a musket then that makes it law!" seem to think those same set of rules apply when it's a ruling you don't like :/
That what they do
The SCOTUS used the exact same reasoning that I used many times when talking about the Travel Ban EO. Trump's tweets are irrelevant to the actual text of the EO and that the EO was narrow in its scope and therefore not a "Muslim ban".
Many people are completely incapable of grasping what you wrote.
They still can't tell the difference between a campaign speech and an E.O.
I know. They kept saying it was an illegal EO because of what he said during the campaign. The lower courts that struck it down said the same thing. Frankly, those lower court judges should be impeached for failing to do their due diligence and reading the EO's text and then comparing the countries to the list of majority Muslim countries out there. There are 50 countries with more than 50% Muslim populations and the EO only affected 7 countries and a couple of them were not Muslim countries at all!
Yep.
I still can't grasp the "logic" that is was EVER a Muslim ban when it didn't even mention Muslims or affect around 90% of the world's Muslims!
That's the way to read law - with your head not your heart - as it was written
SCOTUS smackdown! Libs tried to gin up animosity and civil unrest under the guise of religious repression. It was clear that the ban was determined by country and the ability to vet their own citizens, no matter what religion. It appears that the saner heads on SCOTUS prevailed and we will not leave our national security to the vetting done by other countries that we do not trust. As the US gains confidence in the security policies of these nations, the citizens will be allowed entry. Just as Chad had the ban lifted in April due to new vetting procedures put in place that met US scrutiny standards.
The demonization of Donald Trump hit a brick wall today.
“The sole prerequisite set forth in [federal law] is that the President find that the entry of the covered aliens would be detrimental to the interests of the United States. The President has undoubtedly fulfilled that requirement here ,” Roberts wrote.
To me, the majority tried to make the case as much as possible about the authority Congress granted the president of United States (meaning the office, not Trump). The question then became whether Trump had rationally exercised the broad authority granted to the President. Trump’s colorful statements showing bias were treated as irrelevant if he had an independent raional basis for his action. It’s hard to say that he didn’t have a rational basis for acting against these countries when congress, itself, had previously declared these same countries dangerous. This is all straightforward and logical.
What was a little surprising is that Thomas went out of his way to say that he didn’t think district courts had the power to issue nation-wide injunctions and pretty much invited someone to challenge their authority in a lawsuit. He wouldn’t have written that if his concern weren’t shared by at least a couple of judges. This is a really big deal.
The reason Trump’s tweets and campaign rhetoric were irrelevant was because each of the countries listed in the ban either were a sponsor of terrorism (Iran and North Korea) or a nation in absolute turmoil (the rest of the list). Those two things alone make the ban a legitimate and legal act. The fact that no one else saw beyond the rhetoric shows how Short-sighted and panicked they all were.
I’d just like to remind everyone that these and other 5-4 decisions we won this session of the court were made possible because Trump upset the wicked witch in the 2016 election. Had she won we would have lost all these cases and it would be our liberal friends doing all the celebrating. Thank God for Trump!
If old Ginny leaves the bench🤞, Trump can appoint another judge for a 6-3 split.
Is this the same travel ban as the original, the one that did not include the country(s) where the 9-11 bombers were from?
Yes. Saudi Arabia supports extreme vetting. Why have a travel ban for there?

Democrats are practically powerless to stop President Trump’s Supreme Court pick. So all eyes are on Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski, with the fate of Roe v. Wade at stake.
