Justice Department demolishes Judge James Robart's case against Trump order
Justice Department lawyers have produced a point-by-point demolition of Washington State's claims. Indeed, for all except the most partisan, it is likely impossible to read the Washington State lawsuit, plus Robart's brief comments and writing on the matter, plus the Justice Department's response, and not come away with the conclusion that the Trump order is on sound legal and constitutional ground.

Beginning with the big picture, the Justice Department argued that Robart's restraining order violates the separation of powers, encroaches on the president's constitutional and legal authority in the areas of foreign affairs, national security, and immigration, and "second-guesses the president's national security judgment" about risks faced by the United States.

Re: Justice Department demolishes Judge James Robart's case against Trump order
The whole Idea here was to get the courts to affirm The president has the authority over immigration. So when trump goes to deport 8m screaming illegals they have no leg to stand on.. One leg of the stool was kicked out to save a few heavily vetted Muslims. Liberals are dumb.

Re: Justice Department demolishes Judge James Robart's case against Trump order
From the link...
The government brief noted that the "vast majority" of people affected by the executive order are foreign nationals residing outside the U.S. Yemenis in Yemen, Somalis in Somalia, Libyans in Libya, etc. But Washington State argued that it has an interest, as a state, in stopping the Trump order because "immigration is an important economic driver in Washington." The state's lawyers argued that Microsoft alone employs nearly 5,000 H-1B visa holders, and that is in addition to those working for Amazon, Expedia, and Starbucks in the state. Therefore, the people of Washington State have legal standing to challenge the Trump order.

The government responded that, whatever Microsoft's hiring preferences, the law is clear:

The [Immigration and Naturalization Act]'s carefully reticulated scheme provides for judicial review only at the behest of an alien adversely affected, and even then only if the alien is subject to removal proceedings. Under longstanding principles exemplified by the doctrine of consular nonreviewability, an alien abroad cannot obtain judicial review of the denial of a visa (or his failure to be admitted as a refugee). It follows that a third party, like Washington, has no "judicially cognizable interest" in such a denial.

In other words, a state cannot stop a president's national security directive to satisfy the wishes of a particularly big business in that state.

You mean Microsoft, Amazon, Expedia, and Starbucks don't get to decide/dictate national security? chuckle

Americans (USA) need those jobs. Many citizens working at McDonalds in Seattle have one or more degrees. No "good" are jobs available to them.

Another problem is 'foreign born graduates' are getting into medical, engineering, IT, etc. university programs before and in place of qualified citizens of USA. Thousands of citizens are displaced, kicked out of career paths they work very hard to get into every year by foreign born students who get preferential treatment.

from the treehouse link:

The corporations who will be most vocal against the security visa executive action, will be those business interests who rely upon non-U.S. workers. The America electorate is about to discover just how many foreign workers are inside the U.S. economic system.

....

The Visa suspension from the seven states of concern for terrorism, places the edge of the Q-Beam light right near the UniParty holy grail of unfettered employment immigration. Foreign and domestic corporations pay the UniParty big money to keep the U.S. economic doors wide open.

...

Immigration is where we will all easily identify the hidden UniParty apparatus as it pertains to corporate interests. Immigration is where the GOPe will no longer be able to hide. The republican half of the Uniparty have been paid tens of millions to facilitate open-door migration and ridiculously lax visa programs therein.

Thats immaterial.

The exact people who surround their own borders with fences, military patrols and landmines and ribbons of concrete barriers are telling the rest of the world to come on it and help themselves to America for their own agenda.

Add to that the fact that in Texas, and I'm sure many other southern areas, you can't get a job unless you speak Mexican. They will hire a bilingual first. They have to.
