#1 Define 'close familial relation' as second - maybe third - cousins and eliminate the travel ban completely...

#2 Think we know how this d-bag would react if a Fed judge defied a Supreme Court ruling (Roe v. Wade) and declared abortions illegal.

#3 This matters less than it might -- applications are reportedly down significantly as people look for a more certain outcome elsewhere. The discussion alone changes the calculation.

Interestingly, the same dynamic apparently is at work with illegals. I've read that border crossings have fallen dramatically, while illegals long resident here are self-deporting rather than waiting to be caught. And I recently read that next year they will have systems in place to track those who came legally but overstayed, so they will be deported, too...

#4 If Congress doesn't act, the whole farce of 'checks and balances' is revealed. Welcome your new aristocrats.

#5 The Supereme Court should consider disbarring judges that go against their rulings and try to forge laws.

#6 SCT set itself up for this when it included the "close family" exception in its ruling.

#7 TW's point is a good one

Persons who are not prohibited by the exec order are subject to administrative review and this can weed out a lot

#8 Slow it down to a trickle. Blame bureacracy

#9 I like how you think, Frank. These things take time.

#10 Sounds like this judge needs a refresher in the importance of the rule of law. Perhaps someone will find the time to assist him with that, whether scheduled or unscheduled.

#11 It is long past time for a Congressman to file articles of impeachment against this black-robed bozo. There are several other similar bozos who deserve to be thrown out of office.

#12 Dark Helmet: I am your father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate.
Lone Star: So what does that make us?
~~Dark Helmet: Absolutely nothing.~~
Dark Robe: Visa holders.

#13 Perhaps all immigrants from the nations in question could be processed in Hawaii...

Shame to do that to such a beautiful state though.

#14 Since this judge made himself 'Judge of all travel' perhaps we need route *all* cases to be reviews in his courtroom, by himself personally, - in person. (and without security....)

#15 #13 I believe you will find Zero immigrants have arrived in Hawaii.
