Forget
all the nervous gasps.
When President Trump tweeted that his measure to protect Americans from
Islamic terror was a “travel ban” and that it should never have been
watered down, he was right.
Calling it a pause hasn’t appeased a single of the radical judges
abusing their authority. It doesn’t matter what the lawyers call it,
when courts insist on referencing President Trump’s campaign rhetoric
instead. Watering down the ban achieved nothing. The judicial coup
can’t be appeased with a “moderate” ban.
Stripping Iraq from the list of countries undermined the effectiveness
of the measure considering that the vast majority of refugees being
investigated for terror links in this country are Iraqis.
Most of the rest are from the other countries listed on the travel ban.
If
this judicial coup is allowed to stand, anything that any White House
official or member of Congress says at any time in the past, can and
will be used by Federal courts to seize control over any policy.
And the failure to protect Middle Eastern Christians by prioritizing
them as refugees is a left-wing war crime. The lawyers, activists,
media bosses and judges responsible for it have blood on their hands.
Even as they mouth hollow platitudes about compassion, they have become
complicit in Islamic genocide.
Maybe the Supreme Court will uphold the Constitution. Maybe it won’t.
The track record has been decidedly mixed. And this is an area where
the courts had no actual right to intervene.
There are legitimate debates about the limits of presidential authority
in every administration. It’s fair to question whether any president,
of any party, should be able to engage in military action without
Congress because the Constitution grants the legislative branch the
authority to declare war.
But there can be no doubt whatsoever that President Trump is acting
within his legal authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act
which grants him the authority to “suspend the entry of all aliens or
any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants” for as long as he
thinks it’s necessary. Obama made use of this power to temporarily halt
Iraqi migration. So have other presidents in the past.
Immigration is in the hands of Congress and the White House. It is not
up to judges to decide who can come to America. Our entire system of
immigration “discriminates” based on religion and national origin. It
allots visas and refugee status based on national origin and membership
in persecuted religious groups. If the judicial coup succeeds, elected
officials will lose their authority over immigration.
And that means that the American people will lose all control over
immigration.
The implications go far beyond the travel ban. Judge Derrick
Watson,
an Obama pal, didn’t just go after the ban, but asserted that he had
the authority to decide how many refugees should be allowed in. It’s a
short hop and a skip from there to judges deciding that they have the
constitutional authority to set the annual number of refugees and
immigrants to prevent “discrimination” by the elected branches.
If you want to imagine the end of America, that’s a good place to start.
Federal courts have been unconstitutionally treating states like this
for far too long, intervening in everything from elections to prison
populations, but now they’re using the general anti-Trump hysteria to
assert judicial supremacy over the elected branches of government.
If this judicial coup is allowed to stand, anything that any White
House official or member of Congress says at any time in the past, can
and will be used by Federal courts to seize control over any policy.
And then we will be living under a permanent reign of judicial terror.
This was the nightmare loophole that opened up when we declared that
preventing discrimination was such a compelling interest that it could
be used to override nearly everything else. Now the legal butcher’s
bill might be coming due. And when it arrives, the Bill of Rights will
cease to exist and the elected branches of government will wither under
the shadow of black robes and falling gavels.
That is what is at stake here.
President Trump isn’t just defending us against Islamic terror. It’s up
to him to defend government of the people against two political coups;
one that seeks to reverse the results of the election with a
manufactured scandal based on a Hillary conspiracy theory and the other
that aspires to make elections irrelevant through a judicial ruling
class.
A civil war is underway. Trump, like Lincoln, isn’t just fighting an
elitist Democrat ruling class embedded in secessionist enclaves of
gated communities surrounded by political plantations of minority poor.
Both Republican presidents had to face off in a civil war against
judicial supremacy.
