Hawaii and Maryland have put a STOP on Travel Ban 2.0 before it could take effect today. I say BRAVO!!!!
Maybe it is a political maneuver, "judicial overreach," as our President says, but if so, I'm glad there are still people in this country willing to go out on a limb and fight outrageous ideas such as the Executive Order, whether it is exactly within the scope of their job or not.
Last night Trump referred to 2.0 as a "watered down version" of his original E.O., which was lambasted by the courts on numerous fronts. Now he's making noise about going back to the original order--yeah, that should work well! It will be a sweet day when the Supreme Court tells him to quit shitting on the principles of this country and "BTW NO, you can't do this, so stop trying."
Trump could issue an EO that does nothing more than prohibit people from Iran bringing nuclear bombs into the country and the corrupt leftist judges in our absurd judiciary would block it.
BTW, can you show where the "principles of this country" were founded on admitting unvetted people intent on the destruction of the nation?
Oh, and hard times will befall these corrupt scum like Watson.

The Senate will confirm President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee before its Easter recess, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell asserted Thursday.
Trump nominated 10th U.S. Circuit Court Judge Neil Gorsuch on Jan. 31 to fill former Justice Antonin Scalia’s seat on the high court. Gorsuch’s confirmation hearings are slated to begin March 20, with Republicans aiming to have a final floor vote in April.}
