The Ninth Circuit’s Power Grab
National Review ^ | 2/10/2017 | The Editors

Posted on 02/10/2017 11:32:43 AM PST by b4its2late

The Ninth Circuit’s decision against President Trump’s immigration order is worse than wrong. It is dangerous.

To review, Trump issued an executive order blocking entry by refugees and aliens from seven Muslim-majority countries. The travel restriction is to be short-lived: a period of months while better vetting procedures are developed. The administration, moreover, did not pluck the seven countries from its allegedly anti-Muslim imagination. They were cited in a statute enacted by Congress and signed by President Obama, based on the richly supported conclusion that these countries — Iran, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, and Sudan — are riven by anti-American jihadism, besides having governments that are either non-functional or implacably hostile to the U.S., rendering any efforts to screen their citizens uniquely difficult.

We need to have a constitutional amendment to remove the clause which says “the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.”

With their “Victory” The courts will be empowered—Every act, order or law will be Judge Shopped, and nullified by a lower federal (liberal) court—they wish to bring down Trump with the Death of a thousand cuts—Paper cuts its true. This will go on for the next two years until the Media can get its Progs elected to the house and senate. That is the hope—Delay, delay, delay—cause enough violence, uproar that the USA will turn back to the likes of Hillary/Obama maybe get Michelle or Elizabeth Warren in as “The First women” President—Historic! Thats the plan! lets do what we can to make sure it fails!
