Trump Signs Order to Restrict Refugees from 7 Countries But Not Saudi Arabia

So you stand on the leftist court decisions??? So you are bowing out for now???? This will be decided at the SCOTUS level. Once Trumps outstanding nominee is confirmed, the actual law will "trump" your and any other leftist opinions whether they are leftist fact checkers or liberal anti-constitutional judges.

 

Deckard, I do not know what to tell you. If you are so lost you believe every alternative fact presented by the leftist media then your ignorance "trumps" anything I have ever seen. Hard to believe the left throw stones in pure glass constructed houses.

 

edit:
Actually, I do not care what your intent was. You just keep being you.

 

So maybe I should have clarified it is a mental disease? The only cure is common sense. I hope you get a good does of the cure some day!

My soul is the least thing you need to worry about. I assure you my soul has been bought and washed completely clean with the blood of the Lamb. I know where I am going when my mortal body dies. Do you know where you are going when your mortal body dies? If not, you should be MUCH more concerned about your own soul. I will pray for you!

 

I'm not an expert on reading/interpreting US Code legalese, but having quickly gone over 1187(a)(12), I'm not sure it says what you're claiming it says.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1187

So, the requirements listed under 1187(a) are for waiving this specific requirement from 1182(a) (7)(B)(i)(II)

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1182

So, this specifically pertains to nonimmigrants without a valid nonimmigrant visa or border crossing ID card when applying for admissions.

That doesn't reverse anything from the 1965 statute, I don't believe.

 

Aside from seething with anger, and wishing in vain that half your fellow citizens didn't exist, you're also blissfully unaware of what Parkinson's can bring. May it always be so for you and yours. It's a terrible disease.

May we all learn to love our neighbors, whatever their perceived failings or mistakes.

 

I cracked your identity.

 

Not really seeing the "terrorism" in these offenses listed among the 72:

attempt or conspiracy to violate the federal narcotics laws
false declarations in internal revenue matters
tampering/obstruction of official proceedings
violation of export license laws
concealing false statements
structuring financial transactions to conceal/avoid reporting
ownership/control of unlicensed money transmission enterprise
false statements
makes or possesses counterfeited financial securities/notes/stocks/certificates
fraud/theft of identity documents

Can you give us more info on these 72 terrorist acts?

 

Great read below. It's a personal account of an interpreter, that risked his life working for the US Army, received a special VISA after nearly 3 years of waiting, but was banned from coming into the US due to Trump (until the court intervene).

You think anyone ever want to work with the US military in the future if the ban sticks?

This is part of why the ban is wrong, ill-conceived and counter-productive.

Keep in perspective that you have a better chance of getting killed by a furniture falling on you than being killed by an Islamic terrorist attack here in the US.

I started working with the U.S. Army, Bravo Company 1st Battalion, 187th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) in Baghdad on March 1, 2003. I joined because of my complete faith that the United States had come to Iraq to give us our freedom and dignity back and remove injustice.

...

I spent about a decade working for the U.S. government in Iraq, as an Army interpreter, an engineer with the Army Corps of Engineers and for the State Department at the U.S. and hospitals. When I was with my Army colleagues, we were brothers in arms. We lived together, ate together and looked out for each other. They treated me like a soldier alongside them, and we were all one unit. I still have a very strong relationship with them.

Consulate in Irbil. I helped Americans protect Iraqis from al-Qaeda terrorists, provide water and electricity, train local police and renovate utilities, roads, bridges, schools, libraries, clinics
In 2005 in Baghdad, two of my Iraqi colleagues were tracked and killed by terrorists. I was also ambushed, but got away. The same terrorists tried to track me a second time. They knew my home address, and I expected them to attack any moment. I lived very carefully. The day that they came to my house, I ran away before they showed up. The next day, my family and I moved to another city. But after a year and a half, the terrorists found me again. They were looking for me in a public marketplace, and I was warned by neighbors to leave. We moved again, but we knew we would not be safe forever. So I decided to try to move us to the United States.

I contacted a friend who was an officer in the Army, and he gave me the email address for the International Refugee Assistance Project, a nonprofit based in New York that provides legal representation for people seeking refugee status. I contacted them, and their CUNY Law chapter took on my case in October 2014.

I waited for my visa for almost three years. I filled out many forms and submitted documents to the U.S. government. I had to travel back to Baghdad to be interviewed at the embassy. I was finally granted my visa on Jan. 20, 2017, the day Trump was sworn in. I received the visas for my whole family the following Wednesday.

...

Around 5:30 a.m. on Saturday, after nearly 12 hours in detention, one of the officers told me, “You have a right to talk to your attorney.” They called Jonathan Polonsky, my family’s supervising IRAP attorney. He said they were working hard to release me, filing a lawsuit to challenge the ban alongside the American Civil Liberties Union and other groups. He told me, “Do not worry about your family. They are safe with IRAP students. They have left the airport.” Federal agents continued to hold me.

That day, one of the officers bought food for me with his own money. Finally, one of the officers told me they would help by filling out a form with my information, asking me some questions and asking me to sign it. “We will return your stuff and you will be free with your family,” one officer said. He apologized and told me they were just doing their duty and following an order. “Welcome to the United States, and thank you for serving our country,” he said. “Thank you, sir,” I told him. “I understand.” And then they released me.

When they escorted me into the airport, a crowd greeted me. They welcomed me to the United States. In that moment, I felt the greatness of America. Yes, this is the United States of America — this is the America I knew from my work in Iraq.

Over the course of those 18 hours, I had grown more and more disappointed. They let me down by treating me as a criminal and putting handcuffs on me. But then, I was welcomed by good people cheering for me and for my release. I came from a country where there was no respect for human rights, no freedom of speech. So I was shocked to emerge from the airport and be greeted with cameras, members of Congress and reporters asking for my opinions. The people who welcomed me at the airport deserve all I did for their country — they are the true Americans.

...

America is great because of its people. The American people have shown me that they are friendly, kind and generous. They believe in freedom, in human rights, in respect for other nations.

What happened to me did not make me cynical. I am very hopeful about my new life and the future of my family here in the U.S. I have a final message for the American people: You make up the greatest nation in the world. Thank you for your help and support. May God bless you and your country. And may you stay united.

 

LOL. Your frustration and anger is dripping from your posts. As one wingnut troll might say... step back, gather yourself,and come back when your emotions don't continue to embarrass yourself.

But to answer your questions... so yes, I stand on court decisions. That's how our system of laws work. two courts, four judges unanimously agree that Trump's Muslim ban should be stopped. And more courts will soon agree.

And if it does make it to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court even decides to consider the case, its very likely the 8 current judges will be the ones to consider it, since its not a given that Gorsuch will even be confirmed by that time.

And also LOL at your leftist fact checkers comment. I know facts have a funny way of not supporting right wing causes, but facts don't have partisan bends really. Facts are facts. That's why Trump, Bannon, and the alt-right invented "alternative" facts."

 

And... Virginia enters the arena...

What's this, Canada looking to deport refugees. But but liberal...but but Trudeaux...

 

"Refugees!" Yes, they seek refuge from the United States! And they are not even illegal! How bad has the U.S. become?

 

He's so Christ-like.

 

Trump desperately makes another meaningless gesture to distract from the fact that his administration is accomplishing jack-sh#$.
