Federal Judge James Robart on Friday issued a nationwide temporary restraining order on Trump’s Muslim-ban executive order – and Trump can’t handle any one telling him no. Instead of letting the judicial branch serve as a check to the executive branch, Trump took to Twitter to question the judge’s decision. What is our country coming to when a judge can halt a Homeland Security travel ban and anyone, even with bad intentions, can come into U.S.? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 4, 2017 Trump sent another tweet about an hour later, claiming that “many very bad and dangerous people...

We need better talking points.” “Better talking points? Are you kidding me?” she blasted. “People are...

NY Times: Trump Is Still Closely Tied To His Business Records show that Donald Trump is still closely tied to his business, according to a report by the New York Times. The New York Times reports that while Trump has suggested that he has walked away from day to day operations of his business handing over control to his son Donald jr. and Allen Weisselberg his CFO, however, Trump can rescind that authority at any time – even during his presidency. The Times went on to say, “What’s more, the purpose of the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust is to...

Schumer Blasts Trump For His Attack On Federal Judge On Saturday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer blasted Donald Trump for his attack on the federal judge who placed a nationwide halt on Trump’s Muslim-ban. Trump referred to the judge as a “so-called judge.” Schumer said in a statement, “The President’s attack on Judge James Robart, a Bush appointee who passed with 99 votes, shows a disdain for an independent judiciary that doesn’t always bend to his wishes and a continued lack of respect for the Constitution, making it more important that the Supreme Court serve as an independent check on...

When Baby Fatemah’s family tried to bring her to the United States this week she was refused because of...

US Customs Just Gave Airlines Green Light to Ignore Trump’s “Muslim Ban” United States Customs and Border Protection has told U.S. airlines that they can ignore Donald Trump’s Muslim-ban and once again board travelers who had been barred by Trump’s executive order last week. The notification from Customs comes after a Federal judge put a nationwide halt to Trump’s Muslim-ban. Reuters is reporting that the agency informed airlines that they can operate as they had been operating before Trump issued his Muslim-ban. Which means that people with valid visas can now board U.S.-bound flights....

Republicans Just Voted To Kill An Obama-era Anti-Corruption Rule In what will be one of the first bills the new Congress sends to Donald Trump for his signature, Republicans decided to kill a securities disclosure rule that is aimed at curbing corruption at big oil, gas and mining companies. The rule requires U.S. oil, gas and mining companies to publically report the payments they make to foreign governments. Seems like a good idea, right? You know because if a large oil company (like say Exxon Mobil) has to report the payments they make to a foreign government (like say Russia),...

The judge issued a temporary restraining order on a nationwide basis. And in his ruling, the judge said that said Washington had the standing to bring the case forward and provided evidence that Trump’s order has immediate harm. He went on to say that...
