    The leftist contortions needed to delay this obviously legal EO were disgusting.

    The Supreme Court has allowed the travel ban to go into effect for all those who lack a "bona fide" relationship with the United States. And the case will not be heard until October because the Government did not ask for expedited review. By the time the court hears the arguments, the 90 day review period will already be concluded and so the case may even be moot at that point - although the order retained the ability to extend the travel ban for more time and to more countries.

    The amount of additional harm that will be imposed because of this ruling should not be underscored. Reduced travel and spending from foreign individuals into the United States is already estimated to result in $25 billion in lost economic opportunity over the next two years and this ruling will effectively reinforce the assumption that the United States is not welcoming.

    It amazes me that so many liberal courts have been allowed to squash this Executive Order. Their interpretation of law is failed at best. Thank goodness for the Supreme Court on this one.

    Knew this would be the outcome. Liberal Judge shopping tried to stall, and put Americans at risk...but it's well within the powers of the Presidency to do this.

    Agreed, but it's stupid, since Donald Dump excluded Saudi Arabia.

    I am still ****ing pissed that the Lying **** in Chief hasn't included the most egregious of terrorist exporters.

    Hopefully, others can be added to the list going forward. I agree with you about them.

    It does beg the question that if this ban was so necessary in order to "review" vetting procedures, why didn't the trump administration order said review of procedures IMMEDIATELY?

    The "Religion of Peace" takes a shot to the grill. This means no more new radicals can be imported from those countries. . Who was telling us this order was unconstitutional? :roflol:Oh and, indefinitely suspend and extend the time and breadth. :banana: willy-wonka.jpg

    And you were sitting here for months saying that it would never make it to this high, and that it was all unconstitutional due to some BS that Trump said. Well where are we know......

    And of course the subtext to this will be the tourist dollars lost as a result of his isolationist, wall-building stance. America will be the loser here. Business leaders (all those liberals), have already said, in no uncertain terms, that this could negatively impact their trade.

    As predicted by literally every single non-partisan legal expert, the ban is legal. The law on this is so clear, it's flat ridiculous to have ever been tossed out by activist judges. I think Trump should remove these judges from the bench, for clear legal malpractice. If they can't understand one of the most clearly written laws in our nation, they are not intellectually up to the task of being a federal judge.

    I agree that Saudi Arabia should be priority number one on our ban list

    Please stop with the drama, do you really think people from Somalia and Syria spend small fortunes here?

    Yes, with judges 'friendly' to their point of view. How many Democrat judges were appointed?

    It's insane to me that this ban isn't more.... bigly. I mean, really. Ignoring Saudi Arabia is... ridiculous.

    Looks like Trump had the authority to affect the ban, and the ban does not violate the Constitution - eh?

    An appeal from a circuit court cannot be "shopped".
