On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang in Maryland said Trump's travel ban was still meant to discriminate against Muslims. He pointed to the president's own comments to defend the ruling, The Washington Post reported.
And here are the words.....
quote:
“The history of public statements continues to provide a convincing case that the purpose of the Second Executive Order remains the realization of the long-envisioned Muslim ban,” Chuang wrote.
quote:
“In this highly unique case,” he wrote, “the record provides strong indications that the national security purpose is not the primary purpose for the travel ban.”
On September 25, 2013, President Barack Obama nominated Chuang to serve as a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Maryland

The ban is stupid, pointless, and will not have any positive effect.
Having said that, the blatantly partisan response by these judges to Trumps orders is disturbing to say the least.
"I'm a judge and I think Trump really means it's a Muslim ban, so I'm going to block it." That a legal professional could utter those words, with the knowledge that the overwhelming number of Muslims in the world are completely unaffected by these orders, is sickening.

It sounds like Sessions needs to order some more pink slips.

Well that's not the law, so...

Aren't judges supposed to rule on the Constitutionality of the law/EO and not some supposed desires of the lawmakers/EO-signers?
A judge can use any sort of subjective interpretation of statements unrelated to a law/EO to justify any decision they make on it. It's not right.

I thought we appoint judges of the law, not fricking monarchs.

Cant the President replace and all of the judges against him?
I don't think these judges sit on the bench until death like the supreme court right?
nvm
Like Justices of the US Supreme Court and judges of the US Circuit Courts of Appeals, US District Court judges are appointed by the president, confirmed by the US Senate, and serve with life tenure. ... Federal justices and judges may only be removed by impeachment and conviction for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Trump just needs to take this to the supreme court and get it over with.

None of this should shock anyone.
Proggies have long hinted that even when proven that their enemy didn't actually "say/do" something, the next defense is always "well I bet they were thinking it anyway!"
We are seeing that here with this judge and their assessment.
Proggies are the ultimate thought police and are acting on that notion.
This will only get worse as they continue to lose power.

What's the quickest that the new SCOTUS justice can get approved?

But hey, then maybe this issue can eventually be settled at a higher level so then we can move on. Maybe they're actually doing it a favor in the end.

This judge should be hung. That's the most ignorant ruling I've ever seen.

Remember, that via Obama and Soros' there are lawyers all set up and ready for lawsuits to sue everything Trump does on this.
quote:
A lawsuit challenging the order was filed by groups that have accepted grants from Soros’s two main philanthropies, Open Society Institute (now called Open Society Foundations) and the Foundation to Promote Open Society.
According to a philanthropy database, groups involved in the litigation have received substantial funding from Soros in recent years. Among them are the National Immigration Law Center ($4.6 million), American Civil Liberties Union and affiliates (at least $35.5 million), and the International Refugee Assistance Project (formerly Iraqi Refugee Assistance Project) at the Urban Justice Center ($621,000 to the UJC).
Three years ago the New York Times noted that “immigrant rights groups” underwritten by Soros influenced President Obama’s immigration policies. The three-day-old executive order is part of President Trump’s program to undo the immigration chaos Soros has underwritten.
Apparently a number of federal judges issued injunctions pertaining to Trump’s executive order but the judicial officer receiving heavy media attention is Obama appointee U.S. District Court Judge Ann M. Donnelly. She sits on the bench in the Eastern District of New York, which encompasses three of the five New York City boroughs – Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island – along with Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island.
