The vast majority of which the Trump administrations lost, because they were violating the law and/or constitution. And somehow you see this as...the legal system's fault?

The legal system is operating as intended. The Trump administrations have operated as strongman authoritarian dictatorships, and the legal system (slow as it may be, and as open to abuse as it is*) is acting to confine their antics to constitutional limits.

*See, for instance, Trump's lawsuits against various media outlets for expressing opinions or exposing things he didn't like. He's fine with lawfare when he's on the attack.

So, rooting on the power of the judge to block the Trump maneuver has ramification down the road.

First white South Africans to arrive under US refugee plan as soon as next week
Trump kicked off a wide-ranging immigration crackdown after taking office in January, including an indefinite suspension of refugee resettlement. In a related executive order, the Republican president said the U.S. would only admit refugees who "can fully and appropriately assimilate."

Despite the broad refugee freeze, Trump in February called on the U.S. to prioritize resettling Afrikaners, descendants of mostly Dutch early settlers, saying they were "victims of unjust racial discrimination."

The assertion that minority white South Africans face discrimination from the Black majority has spread in far-right circles for years and been echoed by Trump's white South African-born ally Elon Musk.

The average white household in South Africa owns 20 times the wealth of the average Black household, according to the Review of Political Economy, an international academic journal.

In interviews with U.S. immigration officers, white South Africans seeking refugee status have highlighted troubles with land disputes, crime and perceived racism, Reuters reported in April.

The South African government has criticized the Trump effort, saying it fails to recognize the country's history of colonialism and apartheid.

The judge's order is subject to appeal and will be appealed.  To call it permanent is premature. 

Just more sand in the gears.  This will go to SCOTUS, like all the others.

The decision by the judge, Fernando Rodriguez Jr., a Trump appointee, was the most expansive ruling so far by any of the eight federal jurists who are currently hearing challenges to the White House’s use of the statute as part of its wide-ranging deportation plans.




There is a really good segment on This American Life this week. It's tragic and wrong on many levels. Anyone who supports this is immoral (at best), and fundamentally unAmerican (missed the point of the whole story/history).  I wish bad things for the people perpetrating these acts and those taking joy in them.
