Why do they still need the travel ban? It was supposed to be a temporary ban until they formed a better solution? It's been well past the 90 days they said they needed.

Supreme Court rejects gun rights appeal
Associated Press • 3 hours ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is rejecting yet another call to decide whether Americans have a constitutional right to carry guns with them outside their homes.

The justices on Monday left in place an appeals court ruling that upheld the San Diego sheriff's strict limits on issuing permits for concealed weapons.

The high court decided in 2008 that the Constitution guarantees the right to a gun, at least for self-defense at home.


But the justices have refused repeated pleas to spell out the extent of gun rights in the United States, allowing permit restrictions and assault weapons bans to remain in effect in some cities and states.

More than 40 states already broadly allow gun owners to be armed in public.

Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch said the court should have reviewed the appellate ruling. Thomas said the decision not to hear the case "reflects a distressing trend: the treatment of the Second Amendment as a disfavored right."

The high court also turned away a second case involving guns and the federal law that bars people convicted of crimes from owning guns.

The Trump administration had urged the court to review an appellate ruling that restored the rights of two men who had been convicted of non-violent crimes to own guns.

The federal appeals court in Philadelphia ruled for the two men. The crimes were classified as misdemeanors, which typically are less serious, but carried potential prison sentences of more than a year. Such prison terms typically are for felonies, more serious crimes.

The administration says that the court should have upheld the blanket prohibition on gun ownership in the federal law and rejected case-by-case challenges.

Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor said they would have heard the administration's appeal.

Daniel Binderup of Manheim, Pennsylvania, was 41 when he pleaded guilty to "corruption of minors" after acknowledging that he had been involved in a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old employee of his bakery business. The crime is a misdemeanor yet carries with it a maximum prison term of five years, although Binderup was given probation instead of time behind bars.

Julio Suarez was convicted in Maryland of carrying a handgun without a license, a misdemeanor with a possible prison term of up to three years. Suarez received a six-month sentence, which was suspended, and a year of probation.

Supreme Court sides with same-sex couples in Arkansas suit
Associated Press 4 hours ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has ruled for same-sex couples who complained an Arkansas birth certificate law discriminated against them.

The justices on Monday issued an unsigned opinion reversing an Arkansas high court ruling that upheld the law.

Under the law, married lesbian couples had to get a court order to have both spouses listed as parents on their children's birth certificates.

Arkansas routinely lists a woman's husband as a child's father, even if he is not the biological parent of the child. The same-sex couples want the same presumption applied to the married partner of a woman who gives birth to a child.

Justices Neil Gorsuch, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented from the ruling.

I said a while back that I never understood why the second travel ban was struck down. It's awful policy, to be sure, but not unconstitutional.

By the way, they still haven't called the ban legal. They're still going to hear arguments. They just stayed the injunction, so the ban will be active pending arguments and final decision.

also, looks like those with family here will still be able to travel from those countries in the meantine


We grant theGovernment’s applications to stay the injunctions, to theextent the injunctions prevent enforcement of §2(c) withrespect to foreign nationals who lack any bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.

so tl;dr is that the injunction was, in part, lifted, and in part, kept in place, depending on whether or not the foreign national in question has a relationship with a person/entity in the US... and there's been no determination yet regarding the constitutionality of the ban, beyond the word of thomas/alito/gorsuch. roberts, and perhaps more importantly, kennedy still silent on the matter

SCOTUS will hear arguments in october

Good. No reason to hear the cases now. Better to wait until Kennedy hangs it up and the court favors gun owners.

Trump’s Bragging Tweet On Muslim Ban Just Backfired

Trump tweeted:

Very grateful for the 9-O decision from the U. S. Supreme Court. We must keep America SAFE!
1:25 PM - 26 Jun 2017 (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/879405223399350272)


Ignoring Trump’s odd decision or perhaps mistake in writing an O instead of a zero, we find yet another blatant attempt on the part of Trump to spread misinformation.

He is clearly trying to make it appear as if the Supreme Court has unanimously endorsed his Muslim ban,

when really all they’ve done is defer their final decision until after they can hear the official case.

Furthermore,

the ban in its current form is a far cry from the original ban suggested by Trump and his toadies.

For now, the ban will prevent travelers from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen only if they lack a “credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.”

Out of the nine Supreme Court Justices, only three – Clarence Thomas :lol, Samuel Alito :lol, and Neil Gorsuch :lol – said they would have supported the full ban. Nowhere near unanimous.

If the Supreme Court rules in October to overturn the Muslim Ban, Trump will sorely regret his premature celebratory tweet.

i think i had a discussion with elnono about that some time ago. i mean ultimately i agree, this revised version of the policy was religion neutral. iirc the original version had an exception for religious minorities in those countries being persecuted ie christians
