Supreme Court Upholds Trump’s Travel Ban

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



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.

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

Would like to see them ask a president to leave.  Women and children are easy targets for the spineless.

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?

Sure he did. That's why the "Travel Ban" is back in place. He knew, and the "SUPREME" court said GO !

The TDS crowd surely will loose it again.

Why do they not want to protect their own country?  Because Trump implemented the ban...crying

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 :/

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".

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!  praying dude la de da

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?

Last Line of Defense on Abortion Rights: Two G.O.P. Women

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.
