US Code Law, section 1182 gives legal definition to the authority of Presidential restrictions as regards immigration. Here is that section. Disagree? Get a tutor.

"Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President

Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. "


Activist judges be damned.  The Left does not respect our laws, our Constitution,  or many of the processes defined by Constitutional law. 
There is a reason why this legal rebellion began in Washington State and you know what that reason is,  without explanation from me.

  1. Say what you will, and I am not challenging your quote of the law,
    the Washington State judge had the legal right to challenge Trumps memo and send it to the courts.

    Our system is operating exactly as it should...with checks and balances.
    In the end, trump's EO may be ruled to be legal...or not.

    1. No disagreement, here. Why do you think I talk about "patience?" In time the law will catch up with itself.

      BTW, your point does not mean the Washington judge(s) is a Constitutional advocate. Outside of a civil war, however, the only resolution to this mindless legal stunt, is legislation and/or the eventual appeal to what the law actually says.
