Settled Law -- This is settled law. It's the 14th amendment to the constitution. There is no question here that this is an illegal order. Not that the president or the Supreme Court give a rat's tuchus about the constitution. Trump should just call this EO what it is: The Keep Black and Brown People Out of Our Racist Nation Decree. Hopefully, someday we'll be better than this. –K.E. Bell
Clear Precedent -- What a ridiculous position Stephen Miller (what? oh, sorry, Trump) puts forward here. Precedent is rarely clearer. Let them propose an amendment to the Constitution, so the dead weight of its failure can hang 'round their necks. – Hugh Hansen
