2 Dems to 1 Republican

The ruling will eventually be overturned.

It’s amazing how predictably partisan the federal judiciary has become.

I’d take that bet on this one.

Trial court judge who granted order was a Republican.

It isn’t just who appointed them. It usually boils down to if they are Federalist cult members or not.

TX, LA, MS

Sure, and Santa Claus is real..

"We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges," Roberts said in a statement. "

US does have 'Obama judges': Trump responds to Supreme Court Justice John Roberts' rebuke

"We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges," Roberts said. "What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges."

This is nothing but a political ruling. Why wouldn't TX be allowed to protect their own borders? That nonsense previous ruling that said only the feds can enforce the border, only applies if the feds are actually interested in protecting the border, which this admin is not.

 

[Joes Place]

What is it about Republicans and their fixations on little buoys???

This administration has clearly abdicated their duties.

Do you have a like string to pull to just throw out ba cliches when you and your ilk are proven to be idiots?

You're next orginal thought will be your first.

Immigration and national security are federal issues. The fact you don't like doesn't give you jurisdiction. If you're gonna argue it does then I don't want to see one damn post from you about guns or abortion.

Or is this another one of those topics you guys just pick and choose on?

Are you arguing that the judiciary isn't political? Because you'd be among the few remaining who believe such.

 

[DFSNOLE]

How do explain the dem lockstep bloc?

How do you explain the GOP judge not agreeing with the trial judge (GOP) and the two other appellate judges?

 

[NorthernHawkeye]

DF,

Do you believe the judiciary is political?

 

[IAHawk2011]

Of course the judiciary is political. People are just sick of moron Republicans claiming that every decision they dislike is due to biased, political activist judges while every decision they like is solid, reasoned and well founded in the law.

Because Democrats never do that...

Hack!

Yes, you are a hack. You displayed that very clearly in just the second post of this very thread.

I'm a realist. I'm being honest with where we stand with the modern day judiciary.

You're a hack.

Because Democrats look at migrants as human beings. You look at them as animals.

I’d love to hear your legal analysis on this case. What did the majority opinion get wrong?

 

[joelbc1]

DF,

Do you believe the judiciary is political?

The Supreme Court justices say it isn’t...

 

[DFSNOLE]

DF,

Do you believe the judiciary is political?

Why did you fail to answer my question?

So, the 5th Circuit and the SCOTUS have both said Texas needs to bring down the razor wire. Is the SCOTUS political?
Incidentally, Kim Reynolds and Ashley Hinson have now publicly supported Abbott in defying the SCOTUS. Where do you stand on not only ignoring the SCOTUS as the last word of the judicial branch, but where do you stand on elected officials openly cheering the defiance of the rule of law?

Well isn't that just awesome news. Those damn Republicans are doing all they can to keep the border open. Right Chis, cig man or whoever you're logged into now.

It’s a victory for the Constitution. But just barely.

 

[Sharky1203]

The Dems own the border now, just like the right owns the women's reproduce rights. We legislate via courts now. Politicians don't have the balls to pass needed legislation.
