Given the SCOTUS votes, both sides of the spectrum, the Constitution was upheld. Now for. Sanctuary Cities.

Thanks SSG(P) (Join to see) for sharing the great news to me that the Supreme Court of the United States has issued an opinion in support of the full enforcement of the travel ban initiated by the administration of President Donald Trump.
Unsurprisingly liberal associate justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor were the only dissenters.
I am very thankful the majority granted a request from the Trump administration Monday, December 4, 2017 allowing it to enforce its latest travel ban pending a final ruling.
"The decision stayed lower court rulings that blocked the travel order. The travel ban, issued Sept. 24, is the third version of an executive order to block travel from terror-prone countries. The order prevents visitors and immigrants from Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and North Korea from entering the United States. Lower courts blocked the order’s implementation—as they did Trump’s first two travel bans. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in November that Trump could implement part of the order, but not for travelers with family members already in the United States. A federal judge in Maryland issued a similar ruling. U.S. Solicitor General Noel Francisco appealed the decision Nov. 20, arguing delayed implementation of the full ban could cause irreparable harm to U.S. security. Oral arguments are scheduled before both the 9th and 4th circuit courts later this week to determine the constitutionality of Trump’s order. If one of the appeals courts rules against it, the Trump administration plans to appeal to the Supreme Court."

This was kind of a no brainer considering past precedent. What surprises me is the lower courts thinking that their decisions on the travel ban would actually hold water.

SMSgt Thor Merich Never met a judge that didn't have an extraordinarily high opinion of themselves. From the Supremes I met in school, to the local county Judge here...
