Local attorneys general ready to fight Trump’s immigration order

WASHINGTON — The attorneys general from D.C., Maryland and Virginia are prepared to fight President Donald Trump’s executive order that suspends all immigration for citizens of seven majority-Muslim countries for 90 days.

The region’s top legal minds said the democratic attorneys general nationwide are ready to file or add their weight to a lawsuit against the executive order. Signed Friday, the order also suspends the United States’ refugee program.

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine said he feels confident after the rulings of four federal judges that the ban will not hold up in court.

“As far as we see, it fails three legal tests. No. 1, it’s unconstitutional. No. 2, it’s unlawful in that it contradicts a law passed in 1965 that bans the federal government from making distinctions as a result of where someone is born, their origin of birth. And thirdly, of course, it’s anti-American,” Racine said.

So, when Obama signed the executive order to keep illegal aliens, some of them violent criminals, IN our country, where were the protests?
Trump signs an order to keep them OUT and every f*ing liberal climbs out of the woodwork like roaches at night.
This presidency is long overdue.
he is on the way to making our country great again. The lib-tards just don't see it....yet.

The Rasmussen Poll that was taken last week, found 57% of likely U.S. voters support the halt of visitors and refugees from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen until approved vetting measures are in place. Only 33% oppose the measure...Don't you just love Truth in reporting??? I sure do.

These snowflakes are on the Wrong side of history...must be pointed out and resisted by those of us who know the TRUTH...

Karl Racine is a idiot attorney. He is wrong on all 3 counts. But as a Loyal Liberal Democ-rats he will be making absurd claims and continue to make a$$ out of himself. Was he appointed by another Slimey Lawyer named Obama? It wouldn't surprise me.
