Well said!
Actually a good question, although it undercuts the entire liberal argument.
The answer is “Yes”.
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, Pub.L. 82-414, enacted a provision still found in Title 8 of the U.S. Code at Section 1182(f). The provision gives the president authority to suspend the entry of any class of foreign nationals when the president deems their entry to be detrimental to the interests of the United States. No other standard is set forth in the law for the exercise of this power, and it has been exercised in the past by presidential proclamations suspending entry of certain classes of foreign nationals
I don’t have any problems with a question that reverses the emotional aspects of the arguments. But it defeats her point of view.
Well there was the USS Liberty...
So the Obama liberals on the USSC think they should control immigration? Is USSC taking powers and responsibilities of national security?
US history says otherwise.
To my knowledge, the President is not ‘banning’ immigration or visas from any specific country. As part of law he is not ‘banning’, he is ‘suspending’ certain regimes who do not vet their immigrants or visitors to the US according to US standards.
You mean illegally? Seems pretty obvious he can do that.
She was trying to use the logic of Roberts, etc., but is too stupid to accurately apply it.
Trump merely banned people from certain countries for cause; and their religion was not mentioned.
Did dimwit Kagan list the terrorists who’ve conducted attacks upon America thus far? Sounds a bit like she’s anti-Jewish.......

This feigned concern comes from an appointee of Bill Clinton, supporter of the PLO and J Street.
Didn’t Obama do that?
Straw man argument that has nothing to do with the issue at hand. Further, I don’t know of any Jews, Israelis or otherwise, who are murdering people and blowing things up.
Further further, the president has plenary powers with respect to immigration.
And ugly.
He’s still dead.
Her hypothetical leaves out that part of the equation.
Oh, you mean like FDR and Japanese internment and the Germans during WWII?
I think the obvious counterpoint is that it’s a political question and unsuitable for the courts to be involved if it doesn’t involve U.S citizens.
Then ask yourself How many Federal judges, or SCOTUS for that matter are equipped to put forth it’s own immigration policy.
I saw that earlier, Justice Alito is dead on the mark.
She was actually appointed by Zero but I agree with your point.
The muzzies can all move in with her.
“Justice Kagan: What If a President Issues a Proclamation That Says No One Shall Enter From Israel?”
That’s the reason we have elections you dumb ugly stunt. No one has a right to come to America. We don’t have to accept any immigrants or if we do, we can choose which countries they come from.
You pieces of living sh!t in black robes certainly don’t have a say in the matter.
