The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals listens to lawyers battle over the legality of President Trump's executive order temporarily blocking foreigners from traveling to the US.

The fix is in on the travel ban.

Judicial activism telling the president what is and isn't a threat.

The lawyer opposing the ban is very very good. Not sure how it will turn out.

I don't want to hear one democrat ever complain again about wasting taxpayers dollars.

No reason AT ALL this should be heard. The law is quite clear and the court is just playing politics.

I don't understand why Trump didn't request an expedited appeal by the SCOTUS, they could have taken this case right out of the 9th.....

You don't know who pays for what and that is not even in the same ballpark.

Stay on task. This clown show appeal is costing EVERYONE money.

It is the same ban Obama did in when was it 2015?

It is pure politics and Trump hate.

I don't think they have a good argument to expedite. Maybe with the first one they could have claimed that, but that piece of garbage wasn't something they could argue at SCOTUS.

Losing that argument gave them a chance to write a new EO.

It is the 9th, so it is why CNN is watching LIVE with popcorn; so they can talk crap on PUTUS all night...some more...

Will CNN admit Obama's immigration EO was the same?

The reason my friend is because since we aren't politicians we can discuss things honestly here.

1. We both know that the 9th will rule against the USG here

2. We both know that that ruling is completely political and that this travel ban is WELL within the authority of the POTUS

3. We both know that SCOTUS will eventually rule that yes this President has the authority to curtail immigration just the same as every President before him.

So why bother with this farce of a hearing today?

Lots of singing and dancing in an attempt to justify why the law should not apply here.

the judge speaking now, is he fresh from a stroke? His head lean and garbled speech is not good.

I wonder if he is in a chair. I see there is a rest there for his head. That being said, he is still competent, as competent as a 9th circuit judge can be at least.

They are putting on a good show to make it look like they are at least considering the government's position.
