(531 posts)and therefore w/ shia Iran and Syrian pres. is being tolerated by them. Our allies have traditionally been sunni. To me this is such a drastic one eighty in policy that no one that I am aware of gave him permission to do. I can't understand why they are standing by and allowing this. Of course I wish we were not in bed with any of the oil producing extremist theocracies at all but for Trump to just change things up and get away with it is so weird to me...

(531 posts)can't a case be made for impeachment? I am not sure whether it is a case of extortion or simply Trump being promised some of the $$ too.

(63,870 posts)media who could this if they probe into on their own could be Rachel Maddow or Lawrence O'Donnell.

ETA: further reading... the order did not say that, the judge said it about her order.

I hope it gives the peeResident a shit hemorrhage and gives Bannon apoplexy!
Was that a type on the document: "2018"?

(10,272 posts)Now we get to see if Trump has as much moxy as Andrew Jackson. I'm guessing no, but I'm not willing to place bets just yet.
watoos
(7,142 posts)it's going to be difficult to stop this EO. It may get tweaked or even rewritten (by Bannon) but courts give a lot of leeway to the president in banning people from the country.
We won this battle but I'm afraid they will eventually win the war.
Jimmy Carter expelled Iranian students so I'm waiting to hear that narrative.
Volaris
(10,272 posts)and keep doing exactly as they have been--GET THIS--on the grounds that the Court Order does NOT, in fact, order them to stop doing exactly what they are doing.
They must think the rest of the country doesn't know how to fucking read.
If theyre dumb enough to pick a real fight with Chief Roberts, that gavel is going to get dropped HARD on his orange head for as many times as it takes for him to NOT survive it. Yeah, the Courts will probably give him a lot of slack as they do most Executives, but mark my words John Roberts WILL NOT allow his Court to be openly mocked in exchange for the benefit of the doubt the Justices would extend to the Presidency as co-equal. Not even a little bit.

They all need to go. They keep on using the narratives of dishonest media and in full mode of using psychological tactics of gas lighting which we can see is working on some of their supporters.
This needs to be stopped we are in a serious situation.
Then we get a sick ass witch Conway saying get used to it!!!!!!! Can it get any clearer that they need to be removed.

(363 posts)I'm far more concerned about the reconstitution of the NSC than I am about this.
Which is remarkable in that during 'normal' times I couldn't imagine that two events of this magnitude could coincide. But here we are. It's happening here.
