This appears to be the next piece of the "if we can't win elections, we can decide to fundamentally change the rules" strategy employed by the Democrats. File it under #dotheyeverexpecttowinagain.
First it was Senator Feinstein who suggested as much, and now the claim has been repeated by Senator Schumer that the courts owe it to the world to basically oppose the President. According to the Senate Minority leader it's up to Justice Neil Gorsuch to "prove that he can be an independent check" on the President before he should warrant support.
Reality here folks. There is no such constitutional requirement for the Courts to provide "policy checks" on the executive branch anymore than there is a requirement of any kind for a Supreme Court Justice to garner 60 votes to be confirmed. The Congress and the People are both there (by design) to provide policy checks against the executive branch, either by passing specific legislation, overriding a veto, or by ultimately working with the electorate to replace a President who is attempting to push policies that are ultimately harmful.
The courts are there to determine whether or not what the executive and legislative branches do are "constitutional and statutorily legal"... but they do not exist in any manner, shape, or form to make any determinations as to whether otherwise legal orders or laws are ultimately good or bad.

STATE OF WASHINGTON V. TRUMP
States must be vigilant during the visa-issuance process to
ensure that those approved for admission do not intend to
harm Americans and that they have no ties to terrorism.” Id.
The Executive Order makes several changes to the
policies and procedures by which non-citizens may enter the
United States. Three are at issue here. First, section 3(c) of
the Executive Order suspends for 90 days the entry of aliens
from seven countries: Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan,
Syria, and Yemen. 82 Fed. Reg. 8,977-78 (citing the
Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) § 217(a)(12),
codified at 8 U.S.C. § 1187(a)(12)). Second, section 5(a) of
the Executive Order suspends for 120 days the United States
Refugee Admissions Program. 82 Fed. Reg. 8,979. Upon
resumption of the refugee program, section 5(b) of the
Executive Order directs the Secretary of State to prioritize
refugee claims based on religious persecution where a
refugee’s religion is the minority religion in the country of
his or her nationality. Id.
Third, section 5(c) of the
Executive Order suspends indefinitely the entry of all Syrian
refugees. Id. Sections 3(g) and 5(e) of the Executive Order
allow the Secretaries of State and Homeland Security to
make case-by-case exceptions to these provisions “when in
the national interest.” 82 Fed. Reg. 8,978-80. Section 5(e)
states that situations that would be in the national interest
include “when the person is a religious minority in his
country of nationality facing religious persecution.” 82 Fed.
Reg. 8,979.

Sorry CH, your conclusion as usual is bunk. The only group claiming the courts check or set policy are non-thinking republicans who have expertise in all subjects and mastery of none. And loretta once again shows she has absolutely nothing to say. Another righty who thinks she adds something to society when in reality, does nothing but complain. And gorsuch needs to go on record declaring that the donnies words about judges are out of bounds. If not, he is just another sheep on the farm.

Roger. The travel ban law is clear. I've posted it previously.
Either the courts need to explain how the President is not following that law. Or they need to declare the law itself unconstitutional.
They do neither.
They are judging the executive order as if it's the first of it's kind and judging it on whether they believe it's good policy.
Why else would they be citing their belief that there has been no terror attacks from those countries.

Government lawyers shouldn't be asked to justify for the courts why the order was made.
The President is given the discretion and authority because the intelligence community reports to him. The reasons could be various, could include classified information.
The fact that the courts are asking for justification is specifically because the obvious intentions of the court to judge the merits of, rather than the legal basis of the order.
If (as Roger claims) they were judging the legal basis, they would be asking about laws, precedent, and constitutional issues. They wouldn't provide erroneous reasons about how there have been ZERO attacks.
No, they shouldn't have to justify anything regarding this ruling. The President clearly has the authority.
However, government lawyers knew what the activists were arguing so I would think they would have prepared a coherent rebuttal to each and every "argument".....
"There is no such constitutional requirement for the Courts to provide "policy checks" on the executive branch anymore than "
Apples and oranges.
1:Apples "There is no such constitutional requirement for the Courts to provide "policy checks" on the executive branch If the policy violates the law, or is not constitutional the courts have the absolute authority on the policy on those grounds.
2; Oranges there is a requirement of any kind for a Supreme Court Justice to garner 60 votes to be confirmed. The consitution says that the house and senate make their own rules. Of course the courts have no juristition on the rules.
The courts are there to determine whether or not what the executive and legislative branches do are "constitutional and statutorily legal" True...
but they do not exist in any manner, shape, or form to make any determinations as to whether otherwise legal orders or laws are ultimately good or bad. The 9th district court cited specific laws that the order were illegal in their opinion. They did not make any Constitutional violations.
And again, you mixed two things together that are not related to each other.
Twit, your ignorance and bigotry is unbounded.
My wife's father was black, born in Panama. Her mother was mixed European, Spanish, and native American from the local tribes that were in Panama before the Europeans took over.
She considers herself as a Panamanian, and if you dared to make that claim it would be amusing. You would not like it.
"They did not make any Constitutional violations" I miss typed it. They did not judge the bigoted travel ban on if it is or not, Constitutional.
She's black African Panamanian.

If you accept the reality that your Democratic Party no longer controls any portion of the elected government...
It's quite easy to see that they are looking for alternative ways to produce power. Trying to convince the public that the courts are a "check on the presidency" and that some Justices require 60 votes to be confirmed... are two examples of this strategy.
You continue to make apple juice out of grapes.
"that some Justices require 60 votes to be confirmed.." That is a rule of the Senate, the courts have no jurisdiction on the rule.
""check on the presidency" I think we both agree that the use of executive directives has been over used for at least eight years, the Obama Administration.I am troubled with the use of it by Trump, because i see it as his way to try and get around the give and take of passing legislation.
Obama used them less than getting legislation through the congress, because the Republicans would not even allow laws to come to a vote. The immigration reform for example. It passed the Senate with a bipartisan majority. The Tea Party Republicans had enough power to keep Bohner from bringing it to a vote, because it would have passes. And the Republicans within six weeks of his election, they vowed to never let him get credit for anything.
You agreed with the Republican stategery, but you seem to endorse Trump from abusing the executive order. The Republicans control both hoses, he could have gotten it passed with little delay. The congress probably would have written it better than Trump's team did Not Trump himself, he doesn't have a clue on how to write anything to do with actually using the system. I don't think the Democrats are trying to put a "check on the President". This is no different than the Republican blockade of any Obama legislation.

it's not there.
and btw genius, if trump had wanted to order an actual muslim ban, he would've included a whole host of countries that have much larger muslim populations than the seven on his - and 0linsky's - list.
this whole exercise shows just how juvenile, petty, and petulant the democrats have become. for chrissakes, can't you assholes just lose gracefully? we suffered in relative silence for 8 years under 0linsky. no riots, no beatings, no burnings, nothing. and on the occasions that the right did assemble as the tea party, the assembly was peaceful, and they left the venue cleaner than they found it.
rational clear thinking people would've grown up by now, because the way you're behaving is why you got trump, and why you will get a full 8 years of trump if you keep it up.
2018 will be here before you know it, and if the GOP can flip 8 senate seats in the states trump won, you guys will be royally fucked.

Racist Rodents Policy
Sweeping raids by U.S. immigration officials in recent days nabbed hundreds of individuals believed to be in the country illegally, spreading alarm among immigrant rights groups as they scrambled to gather information and warn people in communities nationwide.
Through social media and pop-up legal clinics, immigrant rights groups have doled out around-the-clock assistance, even as federal officials pushed back against the notion that the detentions reflected a vast overhaul of immigration law enforcement ordered by President Trump.
Officials with the Department of Homeland Security confirmed that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents had conducted “targeted enforcement operations” focused on detaining people with criminal backgrounds in cities across the country. Officials described the operations as “routine.”
Nearly 200 people throughout Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina were arrested last week during raids, according to a preliminary tally provided by ICE’s Atlanta field office. In the Los Angeles area, more than 150 arrests were made in a weeklong operation, ICE officials said.

let's step it up.
oh and btw, rog...
Some Senate members cannot figure out how to pay for the border wall that the administration wants. And unless new funding is found they are threatening to stop the wall construction.
But a solution has apparently been found. Sanctuary cities are refusing to obey Federal immigration law. So they will lose billions in Federal assistance... "The 12 cities with the most illegal immigrants and the federal funding received last fiscal year are: New York ($7.6 billion), Chicago ($5.3 billion), Philadelphia ($590 million), San Francisco ($509 million), Los Angeles ($502 million), Seattle ($284 million), Providence ($235 million), Denver ($227 million), Austin ($207 million), Newark ($207 million), Portland ($174 million), and Minneapolis ($118 million)."
OpenTheBooks.com identified 106 sanctuary cities in the United States in their oversight report, released Friday. In all, cities that ignore federal law by harboring illegal immigrants are receiving $27.741 billion in grants and direct payments in fiscal year 2016.

The 9th Circuit Appeals Court did not make a decision about the Travel Ban, and therefore was not deciding policy. The question and decision was about whether the original District court's injunction should be set aside, and not abut the ban itself.
The reasoning leading to the 9th Circuit's flawed decision most definitely involved a judicial review of policy.
It strikes me now that the Republicans, including Trump, are suffering from a karmic leveling due to their own intransigence. If Trump's lawyers now bump the EO injuction to the Supreme Court he will face a politically divided court and need one of the left-leaning Justices to agree with his case on the matter of law. Had the Republicans fulfilled their obligations to the Constitution and American people by confirming a new Justice, Trump would need to convince one of five rather than one of four, which would be an easier task.

Oroville Dam emergency spillway in use for first time in history "
Will those in CA, given a gift from GOD of water use it wisely or not?
California’s second-largest reservoir filled with so much water Saturday, thanks to extraordinary winter storms and damage to a release channel, that officials at Oroville Dam took the unprecedented step of opening the lake’s emergency spillway.
Dam operators said the maneuver posed no risk of flooding or dam failure on the Feather River, about 75 miles north of Sacramento. But the move sent lake water cascading down a muddy hillside where boulders and brush in the untested, unpaved spill route threatened to wash into the Feather River and create hazards for fish and levees downstream.
The lake’s power plant and electrical transmission towers at the foot of the dam, the nation’s tallest at 770 feet, were also being monitored for damage.
Officials said the emergency spillway, activated at 8 a.m. Saturday, would remain in use through at least Sunday night as mountain runoff from recent storms continued to fill the lake.
“The event that we never wanted to happen, and didn’t expect to happen, has happened,” said Doug Carlson, spokesman for the California Department of Water Resources, which owns and operates the dam and reservoir. “But it has performed as we hoped it would, even though it was the first time.”
We will see. The ranchers and farmers hope so and get that AG Economy growing again.

"Trump's lawyers now bump the EO injuction to the Supreme Court"
Doubtful it goes to the Supreme Court.
Republican opposition to the Affordable Care Act has always been premised on comparing an actual law, with its compromises and trade-offs, to an imaginary alternative. A Republican ad promises, “Health insurance that provides more choices and better care at lower costs, provides peace of mind to people with preexisting conditions … House Republicans have a plan to get there, without disrupting existing coverage.”
The end of the ad directs viewers to “learn more” at https://abetterhealthcareplan.com/. But when you visit the site, it’s just a big video of the same ad that directed you to the site, along with two brief sentences of text. (“There is a plan to get there. The House Republican Healthcare Plan lowers costs, provides more control and more choices to pick a plan that meets our needs, not a plan that Washington mandates.”) The Republican plan turns out to consist of an assurance that there is indeed a plan.
The Republican Party, faced with the catastrophic real-world consequences of repealing the Affordable Care Act, is divided over how to proceed. Some nervous Republicans want to figure out what they want to put in place of Obamacare. Senator Mike Lee insists that Republicans repeal Obamacare first, before they decide on an alternative. And his reason is straightforward: If people saw the Republican alternative, they might not like it! “There is a lot less agreement about what comes next,” he tells Julie Rovner. “If we load down the repeal bill with what comes next, it’s harder to get both of them passed.”
That is very true. If people see what Republicans would put in place of Obamacare, they would probably rather keep the status quo. Lee is right that the best way to eliminate Obamacare is to remain vague about the alternative. It’s a little odd for him to come out and admit this, though.

Opie... this was written by career lawyers, and was sent to, vetted, and approved by the office of legal council at the justice dept, homeland security counsel, and the National security council.
It was not hastily written by Steve Bannon or anyone else the idiots in the media claiming.
Loretta there is one reason Trump may feel obliged to take the issue to the Supreme Court. If he simply writes another executive order that addresses the 9th Circuit's concerns, and which corrects whatever the original District Court felt was unconstitutional, then he has validated those courts' authority to veto policy. That sort of thing doesn't just stop when you "fix" the first instance to satisfy them - they'll keep doing it until you challenge them and win.
If Trump doesn't want to replay this fight every time a West Coast court disagrees with Administration policy, he will contest every adverse decision.
I agree with WP. He has to fight the 9th circuit's decision or he's going to have the court look over his shoulder for the rest of his term.
If however they end up 4-4 in the USSC basically they would be allowing a 9th Circuit ruling to create precedent...
At this point the arguments are regarding the stay. I believe this would have to go back to original district Judge for a full hearing.
Rewriting it to avoid the stay probably does not create a true legal precedent. Just a tangible political one.

Reality here folks. There is no such constitutional requirement for the Courts to provide "policy checks" on the executive branch.
I agree that they can't dispute policy. But if, and it's a big if. If the policy violates the Constitution, or the law, they can block the implementation of the policy.
Really, care to quote verbatim where you see that in the US Constitution.
Thanks.

"OUR OPPONENTS, THE MEDIA AND THE WHOLE WORLD WILL SOON SEE AS WE BEGIN TO TAKE FURTHER ACTIONS, THAT THE POWER OF THE PRESIDENT TO PROTECT OUR COUNTRY ARE SUBSTANTIAL AND WILL NOT BE QUESTIONED."
This is an attack on our Constitution. We cannot allow Donald J. Trump to ignore the Constitution of The United States Of America.
The President, has repeatedly attached the judicial branch, with "So called judge" and "politically motivated" justices. President Donald J Trump is getting dangerously close to defying court orders to implement his policies, whether or not that the judicial branch off our co equal branch of our government, determines that his policy illegal or Unconstitutional. We must not allow this man, to one handedly, to bring us into a Constitutional crisis
So they have a dam that might fail because the State Failed to Manage the water
Wrong, mutton breath. Unless they can turn off the pineapple express, Ca will continue to have record rain falls which have lead to the lake overfilling.
"We are contemplating new and additional actions ... to ensure our immigration system is not [a vehicle] for terrorists," said Miller, the author of the executive order.
Tell me CH, why is the UPI reporting Miller as the author rather than your unsubstantiated claim??? I won' hold my breath..
The President has no incentive in helping the state of California. The state harbors more illegal immigrants than any other state and has multiple sanctuary cities that violate federal laws. The state very publicly supported Hillary Clinton throughout the election and the President views the state as being responsible for his loss in the popular vote, something he has had trouble with accepting. They have also recently threatened to leave the Union through their #CalExit campaign, and the President sees this as an opportunity to let them deal with the consequences of their exit. There is a sickness within the liberals in this country that they are not willing to address. Until they understand what ails them can they hope to find the cure. This is a step in the right direction in finding the #CureForWellness. “
The state has declared an emergency due to flooding in Northern California.

rain falls which have lead to the lake overfilling." Opium, which man made computer mode where they using to predict rain.
The one I use is the God Model, it is going to rain , and when it does you should plan well before it does to control it on the lands you own.
On your land do you have ponds over 1/2 acre big?
The State of California had 6 years of drought , 6 years to inspect their dams and spill ways, over flows to assure when the RAIN came they were in position to collect control and win.
They failed to do any of those things.

Flood Insurance may be something people in California have on their minds as FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) warns that floods could cause massive damage this winter in California.
With an extreme El Niño in full swing this fall and winter the weather pattern is expected to be quite active along the coast and mountains of California. This active pattern should bring large and strong low pressure systems into the western states, bringing plentiful amounts of rain.
Seems to me a lot of maybes in what you claim as proof of nothing. Nice try, farmer joe. LOL
The Republicans in congress can not stand by and let this man to destroy our Constitutional republic.

sure they can and i sincerely hope they do.
run on down to the home depot and load up your truck with mops, "let's do this" buckets, and beaners.
you'll be fine.
between all the beaners and all the pansy-assed liberals in your state, you should have the manpower to cover this.
"200,000 Ordered out in Evacuations"
I pray that they do not become victims of CA Moonbeam mismanagement and those below him in government that are charged with the safety of the People below those dams.
They simply did not manage the flow of water to those reserves.
Other Dams in CA are also under pressure and might fail.
Once this dam goes, it is like dominoes.
Opium how many ponds over 1/2 acre do you have on the land you own?
OMG, TOO FUNNY.
With this Rain the snowflakes in CA have gone from not my PRESIDENT to President Trump Please .
Rat do not forget how well those tampon can dam up a real breach.
Just get in a little liberal circle and get to using them.
CA Moonbeam now admits Trump is his President.
Ouch
Seig Heil Donald Trump!
You are going to regret your love and the support of Trump.
Thanks for you imput on my point Opium, CA was warned two years back by FEMA using man made models, then there was the warning you posted, and yet, CA Moonbeam and those under his command, did not do the proper releases of water, inspections of the largest Dam in CA, nor did they do the proper inspection and maintenance of the spill ways.
CA now admits Trump is their President a month late.
Welcome aboard CA. Guess the CalExit is off?
The grown up are in charge?

A secret U.S. military investigation in 2010 determined that Michael T. Flynn, the retired Army general tapped to serve as national security adviser in the Trump White House, “inappropriately shared” classified information with foreign military officers in Afghanistan, newly released documents show.
Although Flynn lacked authorization to share the classified material, he was not disciplined or reprimanded after the investigation concluded that he did not act “knowingly” and that “there was no actual or potential damage to national security as a result,” according to Army records obtained by The Washington Post under the Freedom of Information Act.
when everyone is hitler, no one is hitler, alky.
a new schtick - get one.
and perhaps all the money you clowns have pissed away on your high-speed "pillowbiter express" could have been spent on something you actually need - a mechanism to address your fundamental infrastructure.

unless you can show "intent" you got nothing, skippy.
that precedent has been SET.
it's commonly known as the "cankles rule."

well, the man had priorities, like providing sanctuary to murderous beaners and re-labeling restrooms "sexual predator zones."
we don't call it the land of fruits and nuts and flakes for nothing.

He can always use the Hillary Defense and you would forgive all wrongs, Right HB?
Why is CA now finding out that President Trump is their new BFF, well they mismanaged the streams, rivers, ponds, lakes , dams and spill ways so they need $$$$$, so they now admit President Trump is the President.
Putting to bed that line of bs. Not My President no more, so admits Moonbeam, will others follow.

a reminder, CA has been in a 6 year drought, so where did they spend a lot of the water from the dams, well on saving the two spotted toad.
Not to the humans to produce food and meats, they got nada (yes, a little Spanish lingo).
LOL hat n Hand Moombeam, pretty please President Trump can you please save my people from CA Gov Mistakes, please.
I want the money from President Trump to go to CA, being the bigger man is easy, winning over Moonbeam is easier still.

Exactly

So you are acting as God telling us who can live and who cannot? LOL goat breath.
and yet, CA Moonbeam and those under his command, did not do the proper releases of water, inspections of the largest Dam in CA
Horse shit.....nothing more than your incorrect opinion. 2 idiots in the same pod. LOL
Opium how many ponds over 1/2 acre do you have on the land you own?
How many times has Ca asked for your advice about flooding, goat breath???? LOL ,
If the policy violates the Constitution, or the law, they can block the implementation of the policy.
- Travel Bans have always been allowed under the constitution.
- There are specific statutory laws that provide the authority and discretion to the President.
Again Roger... this is not a "Trump issue". Trump didn't write the order himself. Nor was it written by Steven Bannon. It was written by immigration attorneys who work for Congressional members. It was vetted by the Office of Legal Council of the DOJ. It was vetted by the department of Homeland Security and the N.S.A.
Trump signed it. As President.
If you read the rulings by the Justices, they don't even acknowledge the actual law that is in place that allows the President to do so. Nor do they acknowledge the historical precedents for such bans. They pretend (for all practical purposes) that this law doesn't exist and that this is the first travel ban ever initiated.
Moreover, if you read the friends of the court briefs from John Kerry, 98 different corporations, and everyone else on the left... none of them are addressing the constitution or the law. They are addressing either their opinions that the order was not necessary or they are arguing about how the travel ban might injure their own financial situation (although it's incredibly dubious to believe that Microsoft cannot fill their positions without using people from these seven countries).
The Justices in question erroneously argued IN WRITING that there was no evidence of any threat from these seven Countries and that there had been no known attacks from anyone from these countries. How can you argue that this is not the Justices imposing "their own" opinions and Judgments (as wrong as they are) over the opinions and Judgement of collective executive branch and all of their resources?
The fact that anyone would rather see Justices (with no knowledge of national security concerns) transposing their own judgement about the validity of a National Security order that has been vetted by multiple security branches of our Government... is absurd as a matter of fact.
This is... quite frankly... 100% Trump Derangment Syndrome. There is no other logical explanation to take National Security out of the hands of the multiple government national security organizations that have thousands of employees under charge...and put it into the hands of uninformed Justices who seem (quite frankly) more concerned with the ability of Corporations to replace American tech engineers with cheaper h1 visa workers.
If you read the rulings by the Justices, they don't even acknowledge the actual law that is in place that allows the President to do so.

indeed.
and the irony, and hypocrisy of the left on this issue was on full display not very long ago.
remember when liberals wanted to ban anyone on the terror watch list from purchasing a firearm? i'm talking actual american citizens, on the list in error. guys like steven hayward who writes for that fascist rag "the weekly standard."
the left shrieked that they were not to be afforded the same due process liberals would now bestow upon non-citizens.
and who can forget good old lil elian gonzalez? kicked out of this country literally at the point of a gun. liberals at the time cheered his deportation. perhaps because he was being sent back to that socialist utopia - cuba.
"The Justices in question erroneously argued IN WRITING that there was no evidence of any threat from these seven Countries and that there had been no known attacks from anyone from these countries."
yup. while a quick googly search reveals the exact opposite.
this issue is asshattery on stilts, so it's no wonder roger would dig his heels in on this one.
Seems to me goat farmer that fema, who does not predict or forecast floods, was concerned that many in California in flood prone areas do not have flood insurance......and were trying to get those people to buy it. Oh well of little intellect, your entire statement is complete BS as usual. Thanx for playing, goat breath.
