Every last one of the blocks of Trump’s travel bans ignores the statute that gives the President sweeping power to limit immigration:
(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
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.
But now acting to defend the United States is “Islamophobic.” Trump is recognizing the undeniable fact that there is no reliable way to distinguish jihadis from peaceful refugees. But clearly the Left will fight him to the death to keep him from defending the American people.
“Judge in Hawaii blocks latest version of Trump’s travel ban,” Associated Press, October 17, 2017:
HONOLULU (AP) — A judge in Hawaii has blocked the latest version of the Trump administration travel ban just hours before it was set to take effect.
U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson on Tuesday granted Hawaii’s request to temporarily block the federal government from enforcing the policy. It was supposed to take effect at midnight EDT Wednesday.
The Trump administration’s most recent restrictions, which affect citizens of Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen — and some Venezuelan government officials and their families.
Hawaii argues the updated ban is a continuation of President Donald Trump’s “promise to exclude Muslims from the United States.”…
brane pilot says
These are not federal judges.
They are left-wing activists who spit on the US Constitution and should be disbarred.
vlparker says
Your right. But they know that the wusses in Congress will not impeach them so they have carte blanche to ignore the law of the land.
John Forbes says
What on EARTH is the mind set of these people ! There is no way the US can avoid more killings & disruption unless this IDEOLOGY is Challenged & challenged in relation to Teachings & the Muslim Brotherhood Agenda !
I for one am stunned that these people KNOW SO little about ISLAM or the Muslim Brotherhood ??
How on earth can this be turned around ???
This BAN was first suggested by The OBAMA administration & now that TRUMP wants to protect the US – NO ????? Kick all of these so called Judges OUT !!
Creole Gumbo says
Or maybe they know a lot about islam and are part of the plan to overthrow the USA.
Bob says
Hss Hawaii suffered much from ‘peaceful’ islam? If not perhaps the worthy judge doesn’t understand what joys lie ahead for Hawaii?
gravenimage says
Most likely they are just clueless Infidels.
john spielman says
well at least the US Supreme court will over turn this leftist excuse for a judge ‘s decision!
Marilyn Griffin says
Maybe, but it all takes do much time. Maybe the main purpose of the Cort stuff is simply obstruction.
Jacqueleen says
Most were appointed by the Muslim, BHO…..What could you expect?
Stan Lee says
Another Leftist Judge taking the opportunity to add to his political record with “his courageous stand against the President of the United States.” By now, this judicial order is foolishly redundant, but this Judge is seeking to fatten his dossier. Obviously, he is thinking of elevating his image in Hawaii’s Leftist politics.
I suppose it could create temporary delay, to an order specified originally by the President to be temporary in the first place. If it goes before the U.S. Supreme Court, it will be dismissed in favor of the President. Judge Watson has no concept of the work involved for President Trump, he has found a poor and previously used reason, with U.S.S.C. decision for it, to stretch his own selfishness.

Send them all to Hawaii in droves… and keep them there.
Hawaii hasn’t accepted one “refugee” or “asylum seeker”, or so I’ve read.
Let the Hawaiian people hold their virtue-signaling activist judges accountable for the havoc these people will wreak on their economy and social fabric.
The Remorseless Headsman says
I’ve heard that Maui could use as many as 10,000 jihadis (I mean “refugees”) and that Oprah would be glad to sponsor as many as her vacation estate will hold.
mummymovie says
Yes, perfect.
And let’s not forget Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s place, or… Rhianna, Neil “the Squeal” Young, Julia Roberts, Emma Stone, and -last, but not least- the Obamas, who are probably behind this whole judicial blocking scheme.
Anne Smith says
What an excellent idea – visit the results of this foolish Judge’s virtue signalling upon those who gave him the job.
David G. says
They have some, but very little. So I have heard.
Gail griffin says
No don’t send them to Hawaii. With all the nasty weather and a mass shooting and Muslim attacks on marathons , military bases nightclubs etc. Hawaii is in La la Land and people say , lucky we live Hawaii. Let’s not ruin the last best place by having Islamic ideology dumped on Hawaii
Marilyn Griffin says
Why not? Why should Hawaii be exempt, especially since their stance on preventing the president’s every effort to keep bad people out of our country? Can’t have your cake and eat it too.
gravenimage says
I don’t want to see ravening Muslims in *any* civilized Infidel land.
Marilyn Griffin says
Does Hawaii even have any muslims? ?
Emilie Green says
Borrowing from Reagan, “There you go again.”
Obviously this judge has a personal animus against DJT and common sense. He knows he’s gonna get shot down again, but doesn’t care.

underbed cat says
Somehow, I got the impression that Obama’s fond ties and trip to Hawaii, had something to do with the Judges decision making. If Trump has the authority, then this judge should be arrested or removed for refusing to follow the the law. President Trump has been making excellent decisions to enhance our safety. In my opinion, taking time to analyze, building a barrier, most citizens have taken the hook, line and sinker declaration of Obama that we have an obligation to bring in a wave of muslims that is an actual Islamic hijra, and helped it by allowing Saudi muslims to fly into the U.S. ( dangerous) unhindered. I believe he was arranging for an invasion..by many nefarious means, one is deception about the “religious” obligation to mass migrate, the learned enmity between muslims and nonbelievers that calls for jihad terror, the denial to grow an islamic caliphate and the methods used. A political system with cover of a religion described as peaceful, a brief reading of the Quran would show the opposite, with eyes open it is playing out as terrorism across the knowledge has been silenced
Marilyn Griffin says
I free that something needs to be done to remove judges (at any level) that involve themselves in politics or social issues instead of totally following the Constitution and laws. And this includes Supreme Court judges.
Marilyn Griffin says
Sorry, hit wrong button. To continue my comment. I just don’t know what procedure exists, assuming one does, for removing unelected judges.
Ren says
The judge in Hawaii has a face people want to slap let alone his position on the travel ban. What a dumb judge!

National defense is “Islamophobic”: Hawaii judge blocks latest version of Trump’s travel ban
…………………..

Japetto Donatelli says
Hawaii judge blocks latest version of Trump’s travel ban
I always feel a little guilty for using the Nazi analogy, it’s so over used. But it’s so comparable to what islam brings it’s hard to resist. Stop and consider how so many from every echelon of German society embraced the Nazi ideals, judges, doctors, lawyers, shoemakers, musicians, teachers, homemakers, clerks and librarians… no strata of society was immune to the lure of Hitler and Nazism. And look what’s happening now with the antisemitic, infidel hating muslims of today. Our president is acting in the best interest of our nation by mitigating the threat with sensible immigration policy, but we got members from every class of society trying to gainsay him every step of the way. Notice how these same folks stalling Trump have no problem impugning our liberties for islam with draconian searches and laws, but those who live for the ideology that caused this situation are welcomed with little or no restriction. We got tons of former ISIS fighters walking the streets of western society, and everyone knows how jihadis are flooding in with all the “peaceful” muslims, who by the way, live for the same religion and want sharia just like the terrorists do. But none of this matters to them, it’s history repeating itself and the consequences are just as bad this time around.
Most of us in JW know what this all means, every adult is familiar enough with 1930’s Germany to know how it goes. Jews in Europe are on the run right now and I can’t say I blame them. They see how the west is embracing the antisemitic bigotry of islam and they see Nazism under a different name. And the rest of us “infidels” can see it too, we’re also getting murdered and terrorized by muslims for the same kind of bigotry. We look back now and wish there had been more courageous souls who stood up to Hitler’s racist hate. And I know with great confidence our descendents will look back and wish more had stood up to the religious bigotry and hate of islam. This judge and others like him don’t seem to be acting in the best interest of our nation when they put politics before safety. Their agenda considers islam’s welfare more important than the welfare of our own people and nation. And I think that’s a crime and sin worthy of the greatest condemnation.
Mike says
Make no mistake, the Islamofascists are the Nazis of today, and those who enable them are an echo of the “intellectual” class’ leanings towards fascism in the 1930s.
Japetto Donatelli says
That’s right, an “echo,” or maybe more like a carbon copy.
gravenimage says
And we have to face the threat of Islam just as we finally did the threat of Fascism. There was the same sort of denial all through the 1920s and 1930s.
Marilyn Griffin says
And when you put all of that together with the 12-15 million foreign illegals, mostly Mexicsns, we have, costing us billions annually and congress’s refusal to do anything EXCEPT help the illegals with smmesty, etc, it doesn’t bode well for our country’s future.
Japetto Donatelli says
You’re right, it’s a mess. That’s why Trump is our president, he dared to address these issues head on. It’s too bad the left is acting like a bunch of fascist d*ckheads, we’re missing a good opportunity to improve our nation.
Bless Trump and his good intentions!
mortimer says
Pres. Trump is from New York the site of numerous attacks and knows more about terrorism than a judge in Honolulu.
Westman says
9/11 is fading into history and most of today’s college students were 3-7 years of age when it happened.
When the first large-scale attack on the US from a Muslim group or another enemy occurs, all this pandering will be swept aside. It might involve Iran, a terrorist group, or even North Korea. It isn’t a matter of if, but when, because the warnings can’t get past the sounds and sights of the hedonistic circus. It will be a “surprise” to the delusionally unprepared.
Bob Hope says
No, the left will do mental gymnastics (the only thing they’re good at) and say ‘oh no he/they were just an isolated incident, just like the hundreds of thousands of other isolated incidents and it has nothing whatsoever to do with ‘peaceful’ Pig-slam!
Wellington says
As bad as fake news is, fake law is even worse. As demonstrated in Hawaii once again.
Westman says
True Wellington. Maybe Congress should invite the most liberal US district judges to help them make the laws and just skip making law from the bench.
The only possible outcome of political judges is loss of respect for law and massive corruption. In essence, everything will be for sale to the most powerful groups.
Why do our leaders and judges want to walk on the paths already trod by banana republics and balkanized nations? Do they expect different results?
Marilyn Griffin says
I wonder that also. I can accept that we have millions of leftist antiAmerica citizens who seem determined to change America and bring her down to third world status an maybe complete destruction. I just can’t wrap my mind around what they get out of this. Oh, I understand about the Soros level of ultra wealthy wanting to run the world, but the ordinarily wealthy with just a few million surely don’t fit into the Soros crowd elite.
Guest says
Not this again

Smarmy, snearing Marxist boy judge will lose again. Just back from Kauai and people are howling about these fake judges. I even saw a Hillary for prison lawn sign. Quite refreshing for a blue state. Solid truth.
Madison and TJ will win again in supreme court.

This dumb judge knows zero about Marxism. Maybe, he and Obama once shared a room.

Guy Forester says
When will this administration get some nads? Immigration, security issues, and visas are the prevue of the Federal Gov. The state of HI has no standing, and all of this was previously decided by the SCOTUS and put into law as noted above by Congress.
Send the court order right back to the judge. Tell him it is null and void. Tell him that if he or any clerk, bailiff, or marshal tries to serve, block, interfere or in any other way tries to obstruct the INS, State Dept., or any Fed agency charged with security, he/she/it or whatever they send will be arrested.
Marilyn Griffin says
Sounds great, but nothing in government works efficiently like that or 9n any commonsense basis. I always wonder why illegal aliens cannot just be rounded up and deported immediately instead of long stays in detention followed, eventually, with a court hearing with legal representation. It would seem easy to determine illegal status but yet, the cost of them being here is just compounded by millions more dollars through this dumb process.

The USA is as bad as Europe, Canada, Australia and even the president has barely to say anything.
In Europe they want to ban referenda, another way to shut us up. The people have nothing to say anymore, only the left and the muslims together, which is a beautiful combination for Agenda 21 and FEMA Camps. The whole thing stinks and has a rotten aroma. How come that those judges overrule the president? Who are those leftists any way? Something smells so bad.
Marilyn Griffin says
The leftist antiAmerica crowd are the ones in control currently. They’ve always been around but Obama’s actions during his 8 years brought them and their determination to CHANGE America totally put in the open. I am truly frightened for my country. I don’t want my country to become a subsidiary of Mexico, nor to be ruled by muslims, but we are definitely headed that way because congress refuses to do anything about our southern border or ridding our country of costly illegals.

Make Hawaii the new Ellis Island and send ALL immigrants there first to be ‘sorted out’. As usual, the people who make the big decisions are not the ones who will be affected by them.

Just maybe, the U.S, should have left the Hawaiian Territories to the British?
Vivarto says
I don’t understand why it should be unconstitutional to ban Muslim immigration to the US?
In the past Communists were banned from even visiting the US.
How are Muslims less dangerous that communists?
Both ideologies are contrary to the US Constitution.
Both believe in establishing their utopia by any means necessary including violence if tactically feasible.
So why can US refuse visas to communists but not Muslims?

Once again Obama’s friend does this again against us, our Country, and all of man-kind! Sad sad shameful times we are in with their egotistic power hungry anti-American agenda’s, within their shameful lack of concern for the American people and our Country. They all must go, every last one of them.
The presidents first job IS to keep its people and Country safe, period!
Shame on him and all the left socialist control they want to put upon on us all as they force their evil agenda’s into all our lives. This must be stopped. We all need to stand tall and strong against all of this BS.
John S. Obeda says
RK. As you know, we are at war not only with the believers in the Qur’an and Muhammad but also with the Leftists, fellow citizens who are blind. God bless us so that we do not give up this fight – for the sake of our descendants. We must study and pray and keep trying to wake people up. But it’s discouraging. So we have to encourage one another and pray for our leaders: Robert and Pamella and Bridgette and James and Bill, etc.

So how can a judge in Hawaii impinge on my liberty to be safe here where I live in Massachusetts from poorly vetted Third world visitors from likely duplicitous countries ? Does he think that he runs the country and can prevent our elected leaders from following their mandate to protect our borders and Homeland? It appears that this absurd situation so loved by leftists remains alive and well. Sorry, but I don’t like or believe that a solitary Federal judge can or should be allowed to immediately stop necessary National Security measures in view of the extant Islamofascist Terrorist threat.

U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson has so much love in his heart, that I suggested to the White House that all incoming ‘refugees’ needing resettlement should, for the remained of 2017 and into 2018, be resettled in the great state of Hawaii. By comparison with other states, Hawaii has taken in very few ‘refugees’.
If 0bama’s activist judge buddies in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, etc., want to pile on, then they can be destination locations for incoming ‘refugees’ as well. Upon reflection, it would just be plain wrong to resettle ‘refugees’ in states where they weren’t wanted. They need to go where the love is.
