Ooh, you in trouble, Derrick!

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court has asked the State of Hawaii to respond by Tuesday at noon to President Donald Trump's motion to block a judge's ruling that prevented his travel ban from being applied to grandparents of U.S. citizens and refugees already being processed by resettlement agencies, the court's public information office said on Saturday. 
In a court filing on Friday, the administration asked the justices to overturn Thursday's decision by a U.S. district judge in Hawaii, which limited the scope of the administration's temporary ban on refugees and travelers from six Muslim-majority countries. 
Next, impeach and remove this activist judge.   His expulsion from the bench would be a salutary lesson for any other judge tempted to substitute his opinion for the rights granted by the constitution to the executive branch.
Good thing I'm not president.  Trump has been very respectful so far of the judiciary, in spite of this ridiculous lawfare some of them are waging.  I'd be far more hostile and aggressive, but that's a good reason, probably, not to elect me to any position of authority.

  1. I agree.

    That's clearly a flagrant abuse of authority and grounds for dismissal, if not punishment.
