Guest Post: Unwarranted Federal Judge Ruling Jeopardizes National Security

Don't tell me what the Constitution really says, I'm the
judge and I say it says whatever I say it says!
By David Martin

District Court Judge James Robart has jeopardized America's security by blocking President Trump's Executive Order on immigration which temporarily bars travelers from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States. 

The State of Washington filed action against the Executive Order on January 27, alleging that sections of the order are contrary to the Constitution, and Robart ruled in favor of the action by issuing a restraining order against the E.O. on the grounds that it does not "comport with our country’s laws, and more importantly, our Constitution." (Judge James Robart)

Robart has declared the "unconstitutionality" of the President's ban on traveling Muslims on the grounds that it discriminates against religion, however, his move is unfounded because not every religion is protected by the Constitution.
