Remember the ‘travel ban’? Lower courts seeking to ‘overturn’ that Supreme Court decision

For several generations, we have been told by the political elites that the Supreme Court stands above the other two branches of government, even when the high court violates the Constitution or claims to decide a broad public policy question squarely within the purview or powers of the other branches. Now, it appears that any lower court can simply issue a ruling more progressive than what the Supreme Court just said, and the other branches feel compelled to abide by that ruling!

Remember when a slew of lower courts created a right to immigrate for the first time and issued unprecedented injunctions demanding that Trump surrender to the courts his control over the right of entry into the United States? Well, we all thought that insanity was put to rest when the Supreme Court ruled in Trump v. Hawaii that the president has unquestionable authority to shut off any or all forms of immigration when he believes it’s detrimental to American interests, as it plainly says in 8 U.S.C. §1182.

Evidently, some of the lower court judges who were overturned by the Supreme Court on this issue are now granting standing to some of the same groups to sue again! U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang of Maryland ruled last Thursday that a lawsuit can proceed against the travel ban from five countries.

We really need a group of official undercover police that are loyal to the constitution and the president to go and "Take care of these Liberals", same as the Traitors in Congress and the Media.

It is the Democrats plan to stall and prevent anything that has to do with President Trump. It is a tactic to make President Trump look bad. Sorry our country has to suffer due to policital agendas.

There is complete lawlessness in America when the liberal lower court judges want to legislate from the bench.
