What if the Judge is Q?

I like judges that are for the bill of rights.
Andrew Napolitano, senior judicial analyst for Fox News, blasted President Donald Trump on Tuesday for calling the sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh “a hoax.”
Trump on Monday told reporters on the White House lawn that Kavanaugh had been “caught up in a hoax” orchestrated by the Democrats. Hours later, while addressing a convention of police chiefs, Trump called the controversy a “disgraceful situation, brought about by people that are evil.”
But Napolitano, during an appearance Tuesday on the president’s favorite TV network, condemned Trump’s aggressive, partisan rhetoric.
“I do not think the best thing that was said was ‘evil’ or ‘hoax,’ and I honestly wish that the president and his people would get past that,” Napolitano said Tuesday on “Fox & Friends.”
He continued: “The Supreme Court does not have an army to enforce its rulings. Its rulings depend upon the intellectual legitimacy of the manner in which the rulings are given, from whom they are given. They really have some work to do to patch up the divisions that exist in the public mind. These divisions don’t exist in reality in the court.”

FOX NEWS ALERT: libertarian takes libertarian position on immigration.
Everything Judge said is correct. The Constitution only gives congress the power over naturalization, not immigration. The plain text and historical interpretation of the 14th Amendment gives citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants. There has been academic debate about the intent of the framers and ratifiers of the 14th Amendment that might make for a good supreme court case in terms of an original intent interpretation of the 14th. (I would support amending the amendment to remove birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants.) But as Trump now acknowledges, an Executive Order is not the right way to have that debate.
Here's an article that argues that the federal government's power over immigration is based on the Law of Nations Clause in Article I, Section 8, Clause 10:

The meaning of "Offenses against the Law of Nations"
Art. I Sec. 8 Cl. 10 of the Constitution for the United States delegates the power to Congress to "define and punish ... Offenses against the Law of Nations". It is important to understand what is and is not included in the term of art "law of nations", and not confuse it with "international law". They are not the same thing. The phrase "law of nations" is a direct translation of the Latin jus gentium, which means the underlying principles of right and justice among nations, and during the founding era was not considered the same as the "laws", that is, the body of treaties and conventions between nations, the jus inter gentes, which, combined with jus gentium, comprise the field of "international law". The distinction goes back to ancient Roman Law.
Briefly, the Law of Nations at the point of ratification in 1788 included the following general elements, taken from Blackstone's Commentaries, and prosecution of those who might violate them:
(1) No attacks on foreign nations, their citizens, or shipping, without either a declaration of war or letters of marque and reprisal.
(2) Honoring of the flag of truce, peace treaties, and boundary treaties. No entry across national borders without permission of national authorities.
(3) Protection of wrecked ships, their passengers and crew, and their cargo, from depredation by those who might find them.
(4) Prosecution of piracy by whomever might be able to capture the pirates, even if those making the capture or their nations had not been victims.
(5) Care and decent treatment of prisoners of war.
(6) Protection of foreign embassies, ambassadors, and diplomats, and of foreign ships and their passengers, crew, and cargo while in domestic waters or in port.
(7) Honoring of extradition treaties for criminals who committed crimes in a nation with whom one has such a treaty who escape to one's territory or are found on the high seas established with all nations in 1788,
(8) Prohibition of enslavement of foreign nationals and international trading in slaves.
Article 1
Section 9. The Migration or Importation of such Persons as any of the States now existing shall think proper to admit, shall not be prohibited by the Congress prior to the Year one thousand eight hundred and eight
In the year 1873 the United States Attorney General ruled the word “jurisdiction” under the Fourteenth Amendment to mean, which Justice Gray would recognize in Elk v. Wilkins years later:
The word “jurisdiction” must be understood to mean absolute and complete jurisdiction, such as the United States had over its citizens before the adoption of this amendment… Aliens, among whom are persons born here and naturalized abroad, dwelling or being in this country, are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States only to a limited extent. Political and military rights and duties do not pertain to them. (14 Op. Atty-Gen. 300.) http://www.federalistblog.us/2007/09..._jurisdiction/
Illegal aliens and even possibly legal visitors and dual citizens don't qualify under the 14thA and Trump is fully within his Constitutional powers to direct the executive branch to follow the law correctly.
For some reason Youtube has been killing the videos in this thread.
Now judge swamp ignores the law that allows Trump to deny entry/asylum to any class of immigrants he wants and sides with Roberts claim that the judge that blocked Trump's order wasn't biased:

Appearing with Shepard Smith on Wednesday, Fox News’s Judge Andrew Napolitano continued his winning streak of being the worst and most dishonest legal analyst on television not named Jeffrey Toobin.
Spewing all kinds of mindless gloom and doom (you can watch the full segment here), while ignoring the all-important mitigating context that proves just how stupid his gloom and doom is, Napolitano painted a dire picture of President Trump as a felon.
After Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison, Smith teed up Napolitano with this: “Prosecutors have told us through these filings that they have evidence that the President committed a felony.”
Naturally, Napolitano heartily agreed:
The felony is paying Michael Cohen to commit a felony. It’s pretty basic. Somebody hires you — A hires B to shoot someone. A is as liable as if he had pulled the trigger. You pay someone to commit a crime, they commit the crime, you are liable, criminally liable for their commission of that crime, as well as they being liable. That’s what the prosecutors told the federal judge.Keep in mind that this is coming from the same Judge FakeNews who called proven liar Christine Blasey Ford “exceptionally credible” after hearing only a few minutes of her testimony.
But here is the important information the Judge FakeNews is deliberately hiding from Fox viewers…
At worst, at the very worst, this is a campaign finance violation, and even that is a stretch when you are talking about paying off a couple of scheming blackmailers who threatened to ruin your reputation and cause trouble in your family and marriage.
There is nothing illegal about committing adultery, about paying hush money, about caving to blackmail, about hiding all of this from the public and voters. Nothing.
The only way this is illegal is if an overbearing government decides this particular expenditure was a campaign expenditure — in other words, something you would not have paid for were you not running for office — which is absurd in the case of Trump, who has a decades-long history of aggressively working to kill stories that might damage his reputation — not all of them sex related.
And let me again point out that Trump used his own money — his own money — to pay off his blackmailers. He did not use campaign funds.
But rather than explain the important context of the government’s ludicrous attempt to “gotcha” Trump with a felony, rather than explain to viewers that these prosecutors are almost certainly politically motivated, Napolitano chooses to mislead viewers with inane analysis about Trump “directing a felony.”
There is nothing illegal about hiding your sex life, bad teeth, or bald head from voters, and to criminalize such things with vague campaign finance laws will not fly. Even the jury in a case involving former presidential candidate John Edwards, who funneled other people’s money through his campaign to hide payments to his mistress, came out deadlocked.
And what about the 264 active members of Congress who created a $17 million slush fund using taxpayer dollars to make sexual harassment and other employer-related conduct lawsuits go away?
These are active members of Congress using our money to make their sins go away, to pay off women to sign non-disclosure agreements, and that is perfectly a-okay with prosecutors (and a media that has lost total interest in the story), but Private Citizen Trump doing what he has done for decades — making a bad story go away — has committed a felony?

It's no secret to anyone that Mueller's investigation of
Trump was initiated as a partisan Hillary Shield , a preemptive,
baseless, but effective strike that drew fire away from
Hillary's espionage, malfeasance and slush fund foundation.
Judge Napolitano was not obligated ethically to go out of
his way to cast dispersions on Pres Trump.
I strongly disagree with some of Trump's policies and actions
though he is still the best we've seen
since Jack Kennedy, bar none;
TPP
Paris Accord
North Korea
Syria
Low Unemployment
Inspiration for Nationalism and preservation of regional culture
around the Globe
...
My biggest problems with Trump are a few failed concrete
and de facto Promises;
Hillary Prison
GUT IRS , Reduce Code to several pages
Kill Obama Care
Hillary Comey Lynch Holder Mueller etc all belong in prison , yet we all
understand that Equal Justice under the law means;
The wealthy and connected, the ones that can and do inflict the greatest
pain on our Country get a free pass, always, the prosecution of a low level
lackey here and there gives the impression that justice is served, sincere justice
is never served in the US, to those in power.
Trump can't declare national emergency over border wall funding, Judge Napolitano says
Congress has authorized money for the president to spend in a national emergency:
Quote:
Trump’s reference to a presidential declaration of a national emergency in response to the reporter’s query is to authority that Congress has given presidents — a lump sum of money that Congress had left to the president’s discretion by a 1950 law for use in times of “national emergency.” The law specifically mentioned civil defense situations in a war situation, but also for response to natural disasters such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes. According to the statute, the president can declare a national emergency, or disaster, and gain access to funds Congress has appropriated for that purpose.

Judge Swamp is also claiming that the immigration laws can be fixed without twisting the Demoncrats' arms with a shutdown, that is an out and out lie and he isn't that stupid, he just wants Trump to surrender to the communists.
Thanks to the Judge for speaking out against tyranny.
LOL
Whether or not the wall is a good idea he is siding with the party of tyranny again, they want open borders so they can create a single party communist dictatorship.
If he wants to speak out against the wall then he should but lying about the law is not a good thing.
2009: "Obama's gon' declare a national emergency to bring in the NWO!"
2019: "Trump's gon' declare a national emergency to fight theNWODeep State!"
LOL
