SCOTUS lets full Travel Ban go into effect, now the law of the land

[Scoop]

The ruling was 7-2.

Edit - Dissenters were Ginsburg and Sotomayor: Supreme Court allows full Trump travel ban to take effect

What's next?

Well it's being fought in lower courts right now, but this ruling could be sign that when/if those appeals get up to SCOTUS they'll deny the appeals anyway.

when i saw the headline of this thread i had a speech already worked out i was going to post... i was going to talk about how soft obama was by not fighting harder for merrick garland .... then i saw the vote was 7 - 2 and realized that merrick garland being on the scotus wouldn't have changed the outcome anyway..... oh well, no soapbox for me....

The president has the right to defend the nation he sees fit. What’s more interesting is he had 4 attempts at it.

We as democrats need to be concerned when these people start putting together political victories. It took them 3 times to repeal and replace. They learned and they just removed a leg of the tri-leg stool.

Keep in mind this ruling is to determine if the Travel Ban should go into effect while it's litigated in lower courts. This is not declaring whether the travel ban is constitutional or not. That requires a much different analysis than what the courts went through for this.

Of course, one may be able to pick up what the court thinks about the travel ban from this, but it's not a 1:1 comparison.
