Just in: Good news (for all but the PC crowd and terrorists, that is)! The Supreme Court has accepted for review the Trump travel ban and refugee cases. Since the administration as yet to win a significant victory, all the Court would have had to do to affirm the lower courts' blocking of the ban was to simply decline to hear it. This leads to the possibility that the Court might have a mind to allow the ban and overturn the lower court rulings, though that is not a certainty.
Unfortunately, the case will not be heard until the next Court term beginning in October. However, that could be a plus if Justice Kennedy retires as rumored (again, no certainty). Then President Trump can name another solidly conservative justice who will arrive in time to partake! Let’s cross our fingers that these hopeful signs bear fruit later this year and President Trump is enabled to protect us from possible terrorist infiltration as he is so sworn!
P.S. Justice Neil Gorsuch dissented on a gay marriage rights case that indicates he will be a trusted conservative voice on the Court for years to come; a justice who will actually interpret the law as written and not as what liberals want it to say!
