Bad news out today is an Appeals Court blocked the administration from deporting monster gang members under the Alien Enemies Act. The good news is President Trump can appeal to the Supreme Court. We can’t trust them but it is out best chance.
A federal appellate court declined to issue a stay on a lower court’s orders in a suit challenging the Trump administration’s authority to deport Venezuelan nationals via a 1798 wartime law.
In a 2-1 decision Wednesday, a three-judge panel sided with the plaintiffs in the suit, further blocking the Trump administration’s ability to move forward with its deportation agenda.
Judges Karen Henderson, Patricia Millett and Justin Walker of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals presided over Monday’s oral arguments, which they agreed to hear last week on an expedited basis.
The back-and-forth Monday was dominated primarily by Millett, an Obama appointee, who seemed to be clearly on the plaintiffs’ side.
In a concurring opinion of the ruling, Henderson, a Bush appointee, said: “At this early stage, the government has yet to show a likelihood of success on the merits. The equities favor the plaintiffs. And the district court entered the TROs for a quintessentially valid purpose: to protect its remedial authority long enough to consider the parties’ arguments.
The judges now control our immigration policy and since they are Democrats, they love vicious gang members.
The Trump admin can now go to the US Supreme Court for emergency relief and seek to have deportations under the Alien Enemies Act resume.

This is how Venezuela became socialist dictatorship.
Our many enemies had four years to fill America with their soldiers, pilots, arson’s, bombers, assassins……these judges ARE a national security threat and need to be prosecuted .
Every crime committed by these illegals will result in the Judges who ordered their release to be executed.
I didn’t notice anywhere in Article II of the Constitution where it was allowed for the Judiciary branch to run the nation if it didn’t agree with the Executive branch’s decisions. The job of the judiciary is not to over ride the POTUS, it is to advise only. Now that they have obviously overstepped their place, issued their orders(?), let’s see them enforce them. I believe that there was a President who expressed a similar sentiment. Nothing happened then, nothing will happen now.
The Founders gave the Judiciary no powers of enforcement for a reason. They foresaw the Judiciary becoming a Judicial autocracy and did not want that to happen. It crept that way anyway with Marbury v Madison and John Marshall until the pendulum was reset by Andrew Jackson. It started swinging that way again in the 1850s until the pendulum was reset again by Abraham Lincoln in 1861. Again, the Judiciary had to be slapped down in the 1930s by FDR. It is time again for another great reset of the pendulum and Trump should do it immediately by ignoring these unconstitutional rulings and fulfilling his role as the Chief Executive under Article 2 of the Constitution.
As he SHOULD!!!
