The ninth is pretty liberal, so maybe if he gets another case appealed elsewhere, he might get a different circuit to disagree and thus get it thrown to the supremes... Or wait, can he just ask the supremes to review it because he's the president? <br /> Either way, if they deadlock 4-4 it'll get thrown back to Robart, right?<br /> None of those scenarios seem likely to reinstate the ban really soon.<br /> He seems to have a problem with badmouthing judges these days that I haven't read anything about him having before when he had litigation up to his eyeballs for all of those years.

But everybody's pretty much expecting that now, so I dunno how it'll work.<br /><br />I listened to the hearing. The entire hearing. The government lawyer's argument basically boiled down to "you can't do this, you don't have the authority!". That's as ill-advised as telling a cop he can't arrest you -- next thing that'll happen is that you're flat on your face on the ground with a boot in your back, getting fitted for steel bracelets, and off to spend the night in a holding tank with random drunks, druggies, pimps, and general bad guys before getting bailed the next morning. Uhm, yeah. <br /><br />Then when that argument failed, he started making a bunch of assertions with no evidence. The judges kept asking, "where is that briefed? I don't see that briefed." and he just hemmed and hawed about how he hadn't yet had time. The judges were *not* impressed at that. He hadn't had time, yet he was wasting *their* time, asking them to consider evidence that wasn't even *evidence* yet? That's *not* how appeals courts work!<br /><br />My guess is that the government lawyer got ordered to appeal before he had his case presented at the trial court level, and just made up shit on the fly. Either that, or he's so incompetent he shouldn't be allowed to chew gum and walk at the same time, nevermind practice law.BadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-50083810862673390812017-02-09T22:38:12.370-05:002017-02-09T22:38:12.370-05:00I wonder if we'll have our "Reichstag Fir...I wonder if we'll have our "Reichstag Fire" before the summer is out.Comrade Misfithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15404477636451308763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-52544724134685544072017-02-09T21:34:10.368-05:002017-02-09T21:34:10.368-05:00Unless he wants this ruling.
