The White House Facebook (Emergency Stay Seeking to End Seattle Judge's Order)
The White House ^ | February 3, 2017; 30 minutes ago | Sean Spicer

Posted on 02/03/2017 8:02:50 PM PST by Red Steel

Statement by the Press Secretary:

At the earliest possible time, the Department of Justice intends to file an emergency stay of this order and defend the executive order of the President, which we believe is lawful and appropriate. The president’s order is intended to protect the homeland and he has the constitutional authority and responsibility to protect the American people.

As the law states, "Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

the law is very clear. the judge ruling is not. further it applies ...nationwide... whereas the presidents order applies globally. in othet words the judge cannot make any order ouside is jurisdiction. its pretty fundamental. so fundamental that this judgeneeds to lose his position over it.

This judge knows whether someone wants to kill Americans because they teach you to read minds at law school.

This won’t stand though. It can’t, it’s totally not constitutional for judges to rule on immigration policy. These are people who are not here, and not citizens. They do not have right to come into this country. The president has the right and power to control immigration. AS IT HAS BEEN THROUGHOUT HISTORY.

Once this gets judges nonsense order gets lifted Trump should extend his EO for a year and include MORE countries.

In review of the EO versus Judge’s order, only certain parts of the order are included in TRO. Visa, limits on refugees, etc. remain. Travel ban from these countries is all that is included in TRO. Sections: 3(c), 5(a,b,c and e).

visas are issued to non citizens nased on merit. a judge that rules on american law has no jurisdiction over foreigners. american law only applies to them when they are on american soil.

Per Drudge: Judge James Robart, who was appointed by former President George Bush in 2003, ruled the executive order would be stopped nationwide, effective immediately.

How does a judge in Washington state maybe in just the 9th circuit, have authority over the entire country?
