President Donald Trump vows to reverse Friday’s court ruling against his executive order

President  D.J. Trump

Could Friday’s ruling by a federal judge James Robert which brings to a halt the executive order of President Donald Trump mean that the interests of affected countries under the terror watch list which are subject to rigorous vetting to ensure that anyone from the listed countries coming into the US is free from any form of terrorism or its related activities supersedes that of the American citizens?

According to our source, the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the official request made by the US Department of Justice seeking to lift the said ruling, and gave President Trump till Monday (today) to put in more arguments prior to the reaching of a final decision. That also allows states such as Washington and Minnesota to also make good their case.

It was maintained on Saturday night by the acting solicitor general Noel Francisco that the President's authority is "largely immune from judicial control" when it comes to deciding who can enter or stay in the US.

Accordingly, the government also issued out a warning stating the risk thwarting the president’s order could cost the States, as aliens have “no constitutional right to come into the US.

Nevertheless, the president is fully determined to ensure terrorists and their allies do not attack the US and is resolved to overturn the “ridiculous” ruling.


Also in a swift reaction, the president launched some kind of personal attack on James Robert on Saturday, as he called him a "so-called judge" in a series of ill-tempered tweets. Where the Seattle judge was accused of opening "up our country to potential terrorists and others that do not have our best interests at heart".
