I’ve promised myself that I’ll not spend too many electrons — on John Hinderaker’s duplicitous nonsense –any longer.

But “some things need sayin’” — now that he purports to “assume away” the central issue presented by Mr. Trump’s Muslim Banning executive order.

So let’s just say that the Supremes will, under long-standing precedents, take notice of Mr. Trump’s bigoted animus — as reflected in many many public written and video-taped statements — when the highest Court finally takes up the issue of the ban.

John is correct tonight, insofar as he recites the statutory basis for a general presidential order, related to immigration to the US. But the President cannot act where Congress has forbidden his actions — nor can he act where the founders, by Constitutional drafting have long ago forbidden his acting. Silly — he simply ignores the issue — and cites a single section of a single statute, ignoring all its subsequent amendments (inside the same federal statute) — and the larger overarching Constitutional provisions.

So, in sum, Mr. Hinderaker simply ignores the veritable cornucopia of evidence that THIS President has extra-Constitutional ends in mind, with his order. [It is more of an… orgy of evidence, actually.] See these evidentiary declarations, from the State of Washington, alone. They are attached as exhibits to the brief of last week.

Mark my words, the Supremes will strike his Muslim Ban.

No one may claim any Executive power that violates our Constitution, nor its first ten amendments. Trust that.

See ya’, John. And thank you, Messrs. Hamilton, Jefferson, Madison and Washington.
