Enter once again the tyranny of the national courts.  National courts (sometimes referred to as Federal Courts) partially blocked President Trump’s executive order to slow down the flow of immigrants.  The President’s position is that he is trying to protect us from terrorist attacks.  The Courts say that he is trampling on the rights of immigrants.  Thus, we have our first “face-off” between the Executive Branch and the Judicial Branch in the new Administration in Washington.  So who is right?

Bryan Fischer, one of my favorite policy analysts, has summed up the issue very well.  He states,
